to be within reason what do you see? it really is possible to reverse the researchers and scientists all over the world. for you know, race against time. they are peers and rivals with one daring goals to help smart nature. the more likes watching it. on youtube, dw documentary the there is no denied aids offline. it's an irish and off the top of other words, people are facing extreme weather conditions. how can we best of protect ourselves

in the future? that's what we'll be exploring in this specialization of echo offer cost. um crystal, i'm calling to you from a very with a cry in gun. and i am sandra 3. nobody will write to income plus uganda. thank you for joining us once again, whether you live in africa or in you, in a city or a funding community. when the rains don't come, it brings cool thing is on the shortage on drinking water bottle. they are some citizens. this is want, we've got for you in the show today we meet the people talking to ation water resolves. incidentally we find out how to make the most on the drought loving concepts. and we see how you, of the biggest selling nation planned aims to point the song of by city

of fust repoed, texas to an a read crisis redid region. so done with the ongoing conflict is wearing the people down, especially in the capital cost to it is the waves of drought that are really taking the tools on the population equal africa venture deep into the northern. so done to learn more about a centuries old, underground treasure trove, the people that are determined to present us of the, for the not to go in so done, the more audi gets hundreds of, keeps telling me to as of the day that it is hard to believe, but beneath the sun is a huge piece of reflect the stretching from egypt flows have done to chat and libya called the new bmw, sunstone, of fi. it was discovered during the i'd really in the 1950s you'll just of the omar has been studying the uncle for for 20 years. in some places. it's what to live

close to the sauces. homer opened up the sourcing the of the region during the test really in 2004 and vogue i, somebody i have in the northern location, the depth to 60 meters or less. can you imagine parity one irrigation system that can irritate 50 heck, because that's unique and it indicates the powerful flow the reservoir and the order for them has done a goofy look hole really just such as a pleasure, have benefited most super salt as discovery 20 years ago they have hot, irregular access to water, almost like up to have fees a sight of mid the most of it he owns, feels covering several hundreds hector's and can grow a wide range of fruits and vegetables from fava beans to soak them. and i'll follow the dcf is mainly grown wheat. this is the how the culture of the world to should be on how to properly write assessment is more

than what you find out to. i mean, if you, you ask advance methods, you have new technology used by more to can be say, you would be a little bit of trouble. tiffany: but if you use the traditional method to see if it can see much more about it. sure . what have been from you and how you have the 5 of us then uh, i'll do for fee so you can either get his fuels regularly thanks to the wells he has built over the years. it's soft cost him the equivalent of 450 years. but after that, the village as on the farm as get the water for free. the new be in sunstone upper flat is the was largest false in what every silver means. that's what to accumulate . said he hundreds of thousands of years ago and became chopped on the ground by the uncle funds. what the results are finite was some areas have a very low retail rate. others have not told some research as think the uncle fund could last another 200 years. but that is need the site teen, nor easy to

a long time. transitional agreements are you in project a to insure what i use use fairly and sustainably. so dense government to create a new law on what to use in 2022 of a seen by the ministry of you to get it on. what are resources so far they have built that he had small was for the public, and 6 deep was for research purposes. and i think it was a good fit and i'm going to dress up. oh wow, what we'll see. and then you still need the possibility of weed production in the nose and then rely on the state of the house of whom i don't think god will actually menu. and then we found out that we can grow more than $210000.00 take to is always in some areas that we are using the water of the aquifer. mean that without causing the drop in water levels to impact time. yeah. because i have to buy out that that's what i thought of to know the huge amounts of what is totally the uncle for has not been measurably depleted. nevertheless, the regions population is growing in size,

and the numbers of farmers and head as to geologist, abdullah on their regularly visit the villages, even northern states to money tell what to use your live through the electronic devices and remember it out over the entire nose and state of that are intended to monitor the changes occurring in the winter level, and you'll see increasing the certification link to climate change means what is more important than ever in this region. if the forcing water from the huge jungle flat is used wisely, it could help humans on any most of 5 here. some places have been dry full as long as we can remember. but they and other places are getting dry of binds the. the was climate is changing rapidly because of human activity, sanches binding oil on the full so few hours. and for many people it is hard

to adopt has to do with 5 failed rainy seasons. nearly 2 years of decimated livestock failed crops and famine. a seemingly endless drought has good parts of east africa, pushing tens of millions of people until she monitoring crisis the shepherd from the somali region. the 50 of you pleaded for help. earlier this year was a hold of the people's lives are in danger. the majority of people have left the village because of starvation and those that remain here. i have nothing at all. so how can i help the school alada? yeah, do you have come xtreme, weather events like the stroud have always existed, but they haven't always happened this frequently or the intensely scientists from different countries collaborated on an attribution study. the found human induced climate change is a pleasure in the horn of africa. it made conditions, especially hot and especially dry. we found though, that's the joe in east africa, hasn't been met exceptionally by time and change. so basically what we're saying is

with the climate change, that's kind that the magnitude of a job with no double cod. many parts of the world are already at risk of drought, but the kind of crisis is increasing this risk in some regions, such as england, where a river and one of its white us regents has run dry and some parts or taiwan, where been blue crops or dwindling or the western us, which has battled a mega drought for 20 years. but how exactly does this happen? when we burn fossil fuels? we released greenhouse gases, but heat or atmosphere that wreaks havoc when it comes to our weather patterns and makes higher temperatures. more likely all over the world. this month was the 1st time june. temperatures went up more than 1.5 degrees celsius compared to pre industrial levels. that's the limit. many countries have pledged notice are passed because it creates optimal conditions for disasters like droughts is warmer, temperatures typically mean greater kind of or basically

a thursday or atmosphere. more about the ration from the surface and dryer conditions and soils and reservoirs, climate change can also affect rainfall. some regions may see less precipitation. others may get more, but instead of having it fault easily throughout the year, these regions may experience short and frequent burst of heavy rain. that's what this means is that you basically get these kind of dryer periods between rape. all events of allows for a longer period for the sales to drive down. and that can also increase a drought risk and severity when i grow does strike a can last weeks, months or even years. and that can become expensive. quickly. droughts have cost the global economy tens of billions of us dollars over the past decades. one water intensive sector that is especially affected as agriculture. when crops fail, the effects can range from rising food prices to mass assignments. drugs can also affect the water supply for urban populations for their plumbing,

and electricity. in 2018 reserves and the south african city of cape town were so low that there were fears the city could run out of water altogether, a so called a 0. these types of conditions, can you raise people's entire livelihoods? a situation many if you can, shepherds are currently struggling with or i'm going to, i don't know how to do anything other than being a nomadic shepherd. i'm not educated and i don't know how to find out. this is the only way i know how to survive. in somali, the shepherd's native language, the drought is called fema. that means equal because drought said everyone equally . but what climate experts, stress is that some communities have your resources to adopt that if we continue business as usual, if we don't realize that's actually a harming of planets, we have hacked in the most vulnerable people and it's up to top looters to make sure the chrysler is like, these don't become even more likely want to just one more

amazing thing the author provides for us, as long as we use it sensitively. bunch, even areas where the res, very lead to water, some life is able to thrive. we want to look on one particular plant that could prove surprisingly useful to us. no doubt you've guessed it. if not, this week's doing debate will give you the onset and a whole lot more. that seems like prickly and spreading and free with the cactus, has few friends and sign a goal. one exception is malik sonya. the young scientist and ecologist count gets enough of the spiky substance, which he says the fullest potential when the stolen has been in the middle of it came, celebrated. all the pumps died except the comp time. that's when sonya came up with the idea of doing something with them. they picked it up. is that, was it?

i sealed a few samples in containers down the would have got that 24 hours. i realized that the cactus was able to produce the mit gas as it is. so i thought i would try to come up with the production method that would utilize the catalyst for agree moment to energy and environmental purposes. is that everyone to me? is that and is it the most? yeah, is that i have it on bundled? sonya grace, different types of species on a small experimental fall of to harvesting that crushed to make clean energy and a bio gas pump. the solid and liquids messaging us they use for organic fast eliza to test its effectiveness. he's trying up make bias by saliva on his own. seals. ready itself, but it contributes to the restoration of the plans by capturing organic elements that are converted into mineral elements of i mean it as carbon you to fire guess from comp, twice a cooking. i don't comics stuff,

eliza to improve products. multics on this concept has tailored to small farmers and remote regions. he wants to pump to heck tests in his village, just the miller. so his cock, this innovation project seeing and that's just the beginning, the band. how about you? if you're also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us a tweet. past a, doing your page. we share your story. it's not just cock, this is the time cope well in drawing so many legions like chick fees a will. so drilled resistance, but that's not only the attractive quality here in africa. we have a lot of experience. we've extended dry spills. bump in you. it is something new. that's right, sandra finances,

and some firing are in from near the german cup to la valley. and they'll start to the experimental cultivation of watson known as like julian, those plans and the results look from is that these found the sa preparing chick p seats for selling the plant is not native to central european soils. they need to advise that will be about to area to help it convert nitrogen from the yeah. like reduces the need for such devices. the form is hope, the simple tweak will allow them to grow more the sustainable protein, which plants from the lake you, family. by the 20th must be crowded, such as a broad beans or peas, which are native here. the bacteria are already present in the swell. but with soybeans and chick peas. yeah. the bacterial strain doesn't exist here yet. between them is like humans which also include lentils, peanuts, alfalfa,

and clover stand out in the plan well for being able to produce their own fertilizer with the 8 of those special bacteria. that's why in europe, crops like peas and beans were long a favorite with fall on this as they actively improve slow quality rather than leaking out nutrients. so these chick peas are grown without onto visual fertilizes, which are energy and emissions intensive to produce a plus if all goes well, the fonts can also do without artificial irrigation. the chick, the plant evolved in middle eastern climates and can get by with little rainfalls. these are the ones the off time, so we try to plant them around 2 and a half centimeters, deep in moist soccer to get the germination process going to. and the advantage of this variety is that it loves drysdale oil. it's fucking leavings. chick pays on

grow much here in germany. the thought to change in future as human induced climate change is causing hot and dry weather. there's an email so so we're looking for leg rooms that we can easily market. i can come and ones that are more heat and drug resistant, and broad beans are peaceable in order to food absa on those. and that's how we arrived at the chick pee and comes and gets got a lot of uses. and it's nutritious. what and what better way to prove that point them with the trip to the village restaurant for lunch. on the menu today, chick p. curry with local classic asparagus. first, the chef brings out the appetizer. freshly baked bread with homeless, made using chick peas from van hunt for the month. it says from perfect. perfect,

wonderful. the locally slowest restaurant hopes to feature chick peas on these menu more often in future. and a few kilometers away. the next harvest is already sprouting. what's that, what is the below the surface? we can already see the 1st roots a moment. so that going is a crop scientist at the live minute center for agricultural landscape research. his team is acutely interested in the chick piece here. legal mean wasn't lied. so we want to find out if leg goodness can help make agriculture more sustainable and adaptable to climate change. and whether they can also have a positive influence on climate change so that it's less extreme. so climate protection and in fact muscles in fact chick peas and other legumes can contribute so much nitrogen to the soil, thanks to the bacteria on the root nodules that even the next plants growing on the field will benefit. as a result,

future crops could need little to no artificial, so it's aliza like humans around the crow, known about 2 percent of gym and cropland, and recent decades, cold grain and rapes eat if it comes so widespread. the many like items are imported. the above all. so it means the state of mind is the one that's best trust inductance. i'd love to see like humans cultivated on the say, i've got 10 percent of the airable land here. i'm gonna have to deal with that. but of course, only if it's economically viable for the farmers of subsidy, and there was a market for it and one in rolanda, for example. the beans are growing on a large scale because they're a staple food and feature in almost every dish. or even with the advice of chrome system, scientists from the agricultural research center. it's proving a challenge for the farm run by band, how to fund them of it's that he's still trying to sell the organic chick pays

from his 1st 3 years of cultivation and have him come from what i'm doing. that's like it's not me. it's not easy to shift this stuff right now and we surprised just isn't what we need to break even what's after you. but it's pioneering work you and yeah, but we know that just missing the offices, the secular create and sustainable value chain is something elizabeth failing also knows a lot about her idea or is that in future protein which crops will not only be grown here, but also cleaned packaged and sold as a sale on to enable. it makes total sense for the nutritional standpoint. to cut down on meats on an increase pump production, stagen, listen, this is does have to be smooth. that's what i'm going to be in as a regional, sustainable source of pricing comes in to you. yeah. it's grown where it's needed and will be a great solution. and of course i have to go. there's only one person already counting on chick peas. is amelia big now,

a few years ago she founded her own chick piece next company in the eastern german city of live session. she says she's glad to a found a time in front of the business model of the mission to all that came up under the climate change of the lease. my feeling helpless member come to a movie with the here is how awful everything's going to be forced, brought us on the floor and you rarely get any specific ideas, the solutions i wanted to help you. i found something with my business where i feel confident that i'm on the right path. savannah and i am proposing a group of friends that has the potential to counteract climate change and the next positive, crunchy climate friendly chick peas is sent on its way to a big gym and supermarket chain and a media vague. and is also hoping that dr. mine for over i tease of like you and we'll catch on in germany and the pharmacy will be able to sustain that be transformed that fields while the time is right. me.

those next loop taste the of like to try them myself. and we just heard, like, you don't need lots of water for the do need some. oh, we do have plenty. just think of our oceans. 97 percent of the water is in off season. well, the salt content mix it on usable for humans, animals, and most plants, and it's not true states, but there is a solution. europe lodges to solve nation plants is in spain, and due to drought, best yeah. it's running around the block. extreme heat and droughts. do you know it's the people in cities they're expecting major population centers like to come to london, they think tokyo cape town and boss alona. i'm facilities located by the c. one solution looks especially promising celebration the celebration these

combination of catalonia in ne, spain is one area in europe where climate change is getting hard. the region isn't the correct because the 3 year drought, the reservoirs that supply the city of bonds, a low to are only one quote to a full this all which ease of rationing the waters, the industry. and i will quote you, but also for local residents. and to me, i know i'm it wasn't shot because like it's during the city and everybody come here to have fun, but there is no ortho. so it's kind of disappointed to find that residents of bonds. hello, no still have drinking water to a tool is thanks in punch through the sun a nation of see what will to the plant in the that stay open to god is the not just in your outcome of the maximum capacity in a 180000 cubic meters of water per day, which we can sustain for as long as necessary,

and that would be an incentive. so just to see what was the is heated up. salt has a very high voiding point. well, water already of operate a 100 degrees celsius on the water vapor as fools through a series of membranes into high pressure in order to filter out the salt things to its efficient renewable energy technology. you'll click on can seems 25 percent less power than other plants of it signs. but even then decent a nation is still extremely energy intensive and expensive on the left of the water as a lot of salt and pollutants that need disposing of in barcelona. it simply gets pumped back out to sea, not far off the coast. so when you're pressing more plans, let's say why there are other solutions. i'm so so in my opinion,

you should use this information only for the very, very crush of me. it's like bringing both up to the pollution and the, and the meaning of what the potential because there are other sources of flaw of water. you can use other associates or other methods, you know, type of 2017 years of drought, a trunk water levels in cape towns, west of wise to below 10 percent. the region was set to run out of water in 5 months. due to the authorities come to this building does not a nation pounds, but they chose a different solution. residents were told to drastically couch them will to consumption. know i'm sure the showering more than twice a week. from the top half to save as if your life depends on the city also invested in better wastewater treatment tons. today the dams are well filled and disaster has been evicted. so now me want in

barcelona to choose and likewise changing. we cannot say, okay, we're going to be dissemination, 2 feet of the 8 museum captain and suppressed a 20 medium tories plus whatever that would go to them. the industry just with the sending nation that's that's, that's what that what about the work catalonia is now also looking to reduce its will to usage a recent studies. so if the hotels alone can see him, 12 percent of the available drinking water bottle evidence to risk, we'll also have to learn to use less because in the end will to it is not for fun. but for us, the vital of personalization has come to us and i hope we've given you a few good ideas, both ways to adapt to climate change so long for me, for so low in across. gone. see you next week, sometime, some place until then do stay and thoughts visiting all social media channels. for

now, i am sandra 3. nobody you from comp, ah, right to in uganda. it's the

making the headlights and what's behind them. dw news that the show that hopefully issues shaping the continents slowly getting back to normal here. well and the streets to give you enough for points on the inside of correspondence is on the

ground reporting from across the continent. all the french stuff from outside to you or even 90 minutes. d w. the judge has got issues with a lot say what crazy. the every jenny, the surprises. we've gone all out to give you some time. one day in

the course of the rectory in your northern most count, the police, the free time, but still very much alive. your guy to the special in germany recognizes where exactly it was fun. i've learned a lot of our culture history. all their travel extremely worth a visit. the,

the, the, the state of the news line from berlin. francis presidents struggles to respond to escalating unrest after the fatal shooting of a teenager. and wondering, my call, condemn the violence and the employees more police as millions brace or a 4th night of ryan's parental authority. say the coming hours will be decisive and restoring call. also coming.
