it is only just practice or is that the nation who basically will class 7 months before russia, tech ukraine, a filtering documents, daily life of the town. how are the people who from o'clock, dealing with the growing tension, they change their world? hold on, we are with, you know, when i me inside starts going on dw, the, the bully, most of us or nature can be sacrificed just so every american has a tesla or if you're a p and a bmw, this consumption overburden to the planet. there's also not enough lithium, so a rethink is needed or nature must be sacrifice for the global, not energy transition. i know that this is okay to get to know who's paying the

price and the global energy transition. missy, a mining needs rethinking, say people in argentina kind of america's what, let's say, the climate, the kinds of trees, a group of women are risking their lives to protect indians and they, to force the native village of my to come to me, you know, to do is nothing short of the heroine? she's known as lady tarzan. the woman who saves the forest with and enough here began cutting down more and more trees in her home and jock

hunt in easton india. 20 years ago to do decided she had to do something with other women from her village. she found at the tarzan army they roam local forest and with bows and arrows and nights. no roads kind of thing had been there. come on, bob, i go into the forest twice a day to check on things. usually we come once in the morning around 9 am, thought about them then again in the afternoon around 4 pm. it's important total that we have to protect the trees and hope that the timber mafia doesn't come and steal them from us. go ahead. my pillow when i come in, there dies. no. no the to do believes that everyone in the community even it's younger members, share responsibility for conserving nature. that's why she's happy that her news

then. okay. has also recently joined the tarzan army using the cpanel. we've been protecting the forest here since we were kids. i have no interest in going out to party. i love the forest. if it didn't exist, how would we survive here? the suki. yeah. how long of a bid for the need and get the we need assistance with massive uh the campaign to save the forest has left its mark on the tiles. and lady she says us has cause reminders of brucell attacks at the hands of the attendance of you. once she almost died. the dog here go head, the guys have the scar for about 10 years. the mafia trying to steal wood and load it at the station. when we intervene, they started meeting us and throwing stones at us with a mazda from a hold on. my husband and i were bleeding so badly for them i, they loved us on the track. because it got to be a tough for me. i do have the vin had went to reply via the attendance fia can no

longer operate as freely as in the past. it's impossible to complete the preventative theft of the me to do and i may have arrived here too late. these trees have only recently been filled with temperatures in the full seas. the lack of shade from the missing trees is harshly noticeable. but to me and the wants of the trees are cut down the soil and dries off and becomes unusable. so e v i, people here, we see that the sunshine has completely dried off the earth. we see this is moved to profit cut up. we who are moving to to do is movement has grown and recent he is to works closely with the local may to conservation will sorry. see, it's head top ask whom are right as well with us without the efforts of tarzan lady and her team, they would like to be no forest here at all. come here to the light gates. thanks

to jim in a 2 days efforts that they can see for us again here in the region. when we own the data, you should have seen what it used to look like here at back in the like a village. we've not been able to make people aware of conservation, remember how that she was the one that made it happen that will get that group. so that took you to do is consent not only with saving existing trees, but also with reforestation. so far see and have fellow campaign is have planted more than $15000.00 new trees, but ever longer dry seasons make it difficult for the young trees to survive. my little eastern india is feeling the consequences of climate change on a mass of scale. it can be settled, the bi lingual 20 years ago. we still have long periods of rainfall during the monsoon season. tumble some,

but now we're seeing the impact of deforestation in the eighty's us and it hardly rains during the monsoon season. it is no longer cold in winter. he put it with the changes to the climate are very noticeable. um and like i said in what time monday, hold on here or the yeah, they celebrate a very special event in the forest at the rocky ceremony. the women of the surrounding villages meet and tie the so called rocky around the trees. in that way they strengthened the bond between man and nature. it's an ancient tradition practice tearful centuries, hugs and kisses for the trees upon us of the so many. 2 in the middle of high for that coupon that we tied the rocky around the tree because for us it is a kind of brother. with this act, we promised to protect it like a family member. we also promised not to let anyone damage the tree weren't cut it down. i could, i could bump good. we'll go for the tucker, make it. they haven't looked on completely at the conclusion of each reality of

a traditional dance. the women form 3 rows symbolizing a protective rule. for years they rarely celebrated the traditions, but since jemina is commitment to far as preservation, more and more women gather su. in the future life and hearts eastern india will be possible only within the 1st year sofa to do and has been able to convince of a 500 villages and more than 10000 people lift the lid in some sunnier villages, founded their own group to protect the forest, i'm much has happened since then kind of quarter been. i'm not as i'm a, we in our village have received very little age from the government. you and i would love to meet that flat since we started working with jemina. things have changed that to look for the water supplies better. no,

let's get by and we finally have a proper root and thanks to her, i'm unique order. let's give out the, even a part of the house outside of the lady tells in a life of protecting nature. and where does she find the strength to find on them? if i'm looking to hire a table to give me i'd be by sig, has given me a k, who or i am a tribal woman for how many of nature is sacred to us would hit pulled on plants. great. are gone for us houses via i think gone, gives me the strength to protect the forest and make it in the trees. and the plants give me the strength to go on the forehead of a hill. so for the, the lady tells and wants to get the younger generation excited about her work to the 43 year old knows that protecting nature in easton, india is possible. i mean, if every generation gets involved the

muscle in season leading the way to the bush, they are often to baby teams rescued from annual traffic cuz now they leave at the chimpanzee conservation center. essentially located in the motional back of upland nyja and is central gimme. the country is home to more than 30000 wild west and chimpanzees, the largest population in the region. however, the numbers of these great apes with whom we humans here more than 98 percent for genetic blueprint have declined dramatically in the last 20 years. then now critically endangered. the presley finally cause that aspect. so this is the main causes of chimpanzee extinction. at the destruction of the habitats, due to human activity, and pushing st. lucie brooklyn, people cuban with no regard for the load that to protect the site or speak to a mentor. in guinea coupon fees are often pushed for them meet or sold as pets.

teams like michael hoping, seized by the employees, are brought to the center this century rehabilitate streams and then releases them into the wild. around 60 great apes, a country leaving at the center which is funded by international organizations and private donors. or the the to the gets off to a swinging stepped with the breakfast of fruits and ginger tea to combat the cold, routine health and psychological jacob polos since they often arrive suffering from health problems and for months then onyx cushion into the forest helps the young chimpanzees adapt to do was not for the import. the forest is important for the coupon theater. we work with them through the foreigner tool so they can get used

to date as of tuesday. habitat that's out of here. they can find food and a place certainly. okay. through the mines is what full muscle and these calls to return to the forest. they need lodge open spaces to hung out in yet human activities like agriculture and logging, destroying the national park, but also sufficient, healthy, happy to mean just trying to achieve could be released since 2008, split something closer to us. obviously the cheap pansy concentration center contributes to species protection through rehabilitation and re introduction of it, but also by educating the local communities, seal it because it gets the community that's destroying the environment and okay, so these people need to be educated and sensitized really, and i get on a more adult fish all out of provider. that's very, very important for a project like this wednesday. so i said throughout the example on, does that project come st lucie minutes, you need this in to have launched different projects to waste environmental

awareness within the community is leaving in the park. among them is a weekly radio show, isn't phones listeners about the pox flora and phone up, it's natural resources and how to protect them. you're doing an indication of program a to primary school inside the park also teaches future generations about the importance of conservation. and that's where it's to funds these fees, since it's taught in 2019 more than $700.00 students have taken part in this workshops to the point for the program that we're around these programs and schools to teach children while they are young. so they can grow up with the idea and also pass this information on to others to protect the environment. well, we've got the teams, habitat conservation, and education a crucial, but so is providing alternative sources of income that for most sustainable development locally along with the villages and to women's

association, the center that has created lasting employment opportunities and launched a plastic recycling project which supports more than $300.00 women, a it's a win win solution. these projects provide locals with a steady income. these environmental awareness and ease the pressure on the echo system. and could soon give my coal cesar and defend a cheap enough space to go 8 in the wild. the human beings have already drained and so destroyed 10 percent of the world's motions. but when it's tax the store 5 times more c o 2 than forests. so it's high time to refill the swamps. deep in the house of virginia as

much as with the manager of this nature is of course slowly. he's trying to undo 2 centuries of destruction. back then, the swamp was supposed to be made usable for logging and foaming cypress and pine trees with valuable building material. and wood cut down the pots of the woodlands which range the predicted area is 500 square kilometers in size. and chris low is the task is to bring back the water, lake drummond essential to this. it must maintain its water level. i always had a storm coming on. if we were to allow the lake to be drawn down and then that means it's going to bring more water off the land into this bowl of the lake. and so by keeping the lake level up to a level that will hopefully keep the ground water level fund for

around the perimeter and the lake. 250 years ago, slaves had to dig a huge network of steps, canals voice it from the surrounding. mostly pizza, oil slow down the area into the depressions. the peach dried out. and pete is the plan. that's best c o 2 reservoir, but only if it's under voice. and chris says that the last 2 mates of bias here alone released over 6000000 tons of carbon dioxide equal to documented by more than 1000000 costs in a year. and so they are trying to raise the ocean level again. chris and his team regulate the water flow using simple metal structures and wooden boats. they want as little rundle from the marsh as possible. what we're trying to do is restore some of the hydrology, major wetland to wetland again increase habitat diversity by bringing back some of

those historic forest communities. so that is it goes into the future in the face of climate change. and if we do continue to have those natural events that occur, this system will be more resilient to great dismal, swamp, and impenetrable. stick it in hospitable to humans. that's why it was an important refuge for people who did not want to be discovered. people dislike the horrors of slavery. ran into eric strip. it's ancestors were among them to escape. he says that altogether 50000 escaped slaves had here hoping for freedom. and he invites visitors to take to us and has worked tenaciously to him cover they use me. sometimes i used to walk the grey of where i knew my ancestors had walked in this case where the bones spill on

a dismal smell. and i would have moments when i said, tell me where you are. i'm looking for you. it was, it was in the energy, the space where you felt like you were connected to something that was lost in your soul. the lakes was, is also saved people's lives back then. the canals began to start in trade and escape routes. eric, shep hits guest, karen wilson and the daughter of d. t moved the one who created the heavens in the earth always provides a way of escape for his people. and so when i see the waterways, i think of deliverance. and i just it, it's a message of hope for me. the motion stretches for hundreds of miles along the atlantic coast. it is always been difficult for farm is here to eat house and living from the swampy soil. draining it seemed the only option the carolina rawlins was doing things different from manager angie,

to the ones to combine ecology and economy. re wasting the dr. pete and turning it into cash. the most c a to they bind here on the water, the more money they get from big c o 2 produces like airlines who use that to offset their c o 2 emissions. and she sees more opportunities to profit in their so well there's so there's, these are the healthy microbes. um and basically this is what you put this under a microscope. and you'll see things that create cosmetic pharmaceuticals. things like that. east carolina university researches scientifically monitor the efforts. noting measurements was the levels so conditions and making sure the goals is flowing property. they want to help ensure that private landowners have a financial incentive to restore moses to fight climate change. our

cost is full of the mom and pops and the small amount of acreage is they can't afford with this land are put into the research and development. i'd like to be able to create a pool where we can help incentive us doing the right thing. and make it exciting. back in the great dismal, swamped with things are moving in the right direction at their own pace. chris, larry has to turn back time to move forward from the natural. it's in the face of climate change. it's going to be a healthier system if it's a weather system and that it can serve as a wetland. it can serve as a buffer between all the one and a half 1000000 people that live around us. climate change is happening faster than ecosystems can evolve. so we're trying to adapt now for what the conditions are

forecasted to be in the future. so that's even under extreme conditions. millions of tons of c o 2 are safely sequestered here in the motion solely on the top speeds, considerable horse power and the smoking exhaust. not so much you don't get a mobility is taking over this. yeah, every fixed cost sold worldwide will run on electricity. and the trend is up. great . trump is a catch. let's see m b, these come from without search, which means we need a lot of this stuff within a few years, demand will hit $240000.00 tons per year, cost billions. tiffany, to support clement if florida is, is normally very friendly and laid back, but mention lithium antique ro,

serious almost, i rate a just to know who to using fresh water and especially salt water because there's literally a minute video audits. i mean, if they keep doing that, we can all pack up and leave because everything here would die more than the. clemente is on his way to a protest. he wants to show that people here in the north of arch and tina, or against mining lithium for industrialized countries. this region is home to many salt water links which contain lithium. but extracting this metal, known as white gold, consumes millions of leaders of fresh water and salt water. and that's raising fears. the ground water levels could sink. the mine has been a source of conflict for years. clemente is destination is the village of all the far see tow. the people here live from what nature provides. so they never take more than what they need for generations.

earnestina has made items from the world of her. yeah. most she's passed down her knowledge to her daughter, maria. they sell their handicrafts to tourist, though few visit this area. but they're fine with that. what worries them is that water is crying scarce? yo don't look else is we have no, was it here in the mountains? i must look really high up to find some of the low a stream once ran right by her door. now there's fairly a trickle. rain is rare in this region. so if the ground water table were to sink any more, the whole pico system would be at risk. locals believe that the droughts caused by climate change and lithium mining are only making things worse. so the, the $38.00 are nicholas. we're destroying the regions eco system with all its life . okay. so people elsewhere think this is green energy. yeah. but it's not the 3

and then of course it, but i'm just drawing something to get something else in the green energy is also a business in the here. people have come from all over to learn about their rights from environmental activists and lawyers. once they say that no one else will tell them, never mind, ask their approval, that they feared losing their livelihood, since it was international companies and the government rank and profits. and that the city of tons of lithium is explored into the, the income more to go to our community or argentina. that would be fair. but where are the proceeds or did they all go abroad? is it already such as far as the german government subsidies have boosted the sale of electric cars? 1000000 e. b 's have been registered in germany to date, and that number is suppose to rise to 15000000 by 2030. a. car maker bmw, already sources, lithium from argentina,

but all industrialized nations compet the middle of all the most of us on our nature, come to me sacrifice. just so every american has a tesla, or if you're a p and a bmw, this consumption overburden to the planet, there's also not enough lithium. so a rethink is needed or nature must be sacrifice for the global north energy transition at all that is not to tackle the climate and energy crisis. germany is looking for partners and german investment would help argentina combat it's economic crisis. and so for me, providence, they fear a mass sale of raw materials coming. oh, i know, i need it, i must do it. so i didn't t notarized that and it's due to the mining industry. major players will come, i mean i, but there's no strategic plan. no awareness, that's really what rain we would have. we would have a bus. so together, they're setting an example. they plan to launch a balloon to get their message across. it says we're protecting the water

everyone is pitching in. it doesn't matter whether they live in the village like maria, or come from far away. like clemente, the, the in the whole world will see there are lots of us all working together. and the the balloon will be powered by the wind and sun alone. for clemente, florida. this is about more than environmental protection. it's about social justice and co determination. there's a strong headwind and the delicate balloon can barely get on the corner. maybe it's symbolic. clemente says, but he's not giving up, you're gonna need to us the, it's a small step towards raising our visibility and showing everyone there's

a life here and i the people here want to fight climate change, but not by explaining nature. as long as the risks remain unknown, they are not prepared to hand over control of their land and its resources. the

june of pursuit. so not to set the columbus no phillips brand new piece of lending, assessing so that no thoughts protection without cutting down the to mangrove for is a big change for us on the national park. and the people of the

people is at the eco africa on dw. i'm tired of coffee. i can't read 34 years of suppressing i was a metal. i didn't know what has the best of us. why? now i know the never ending story of asbestos in 75 minutes on d. w. not just the other day. so much is happening all at once. we take time to understand this is the day and in depth look. news events analyzed by experts and critical thinkers.
