she asks, what will cultural heritage meet in the digital future? the w. these places in europe are smash, records step into an old adventure. it's the treasure map for modern globetrotters. discover some of us record breaking site on google, max youtube and now also in the book form the and there is no denying dates 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
5:31 am
in the future? that's what we'll be exploring in this specialization of echo oper cost um crystal . i'm calling to you from a very, with a cry in gunner. and i am sandra 3. nobody. all right, to income plus you going to 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 up fees on the shortage of drinking water bottle. they are some solutions which is what we've got for you in the show today. we meet the people talking to ation and what the results in so that we find out how to make the most on the drought loving comfortable. and we see how you, of the guess this sunday nation found things to point the song of barcelona,
5:32 am
a 1st rate, bold texas to an a read crisis redid region. so done. what is 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 then should deep into the northern so done to learn more about a centuries old, underground tricia troll the people that are determined to please us of the for the most to go in so done, the more audi gets hundreds of can allow me to as of the day that it is hard to believe. but beneath the sun is a huge reese of the reflect, a stretching from egypt flows have done to chat and libya called the new bmw sunstone. uncle 5, it was discovered during the i'd really in the 1950s. you'll just of delta omar has been starting the uncle for for 20 years. in some places. it's what to live close
5:33 am
to the sauces. home or up and up. this whole seemed a region during the test really in 2004 and lo, guy, somebody has in the northern location, the depth of the 60 meters or less. can you imagine parity one irrigation system that can irritate 50 heck, because the that's unique and it indicates the powerful flow the reservoir and the order model for them has done a goofy look hole really just such as a refresher, have benefited most super salt as discovery 20 years ago, they have hot, irregular access to water. farmers like up to have fees a sight of mid to most of it. he owns, feels covering several hundreds heck says and can draw a wide range of fruits and vegetables from fava beans to soak them. and i'll follow the dcf is mainly grown wheat. this light is on the how the culture of the world to should be hosted properly. you as one is more than one
5:34 am
. so you find that to, i mean, if you, you ask advance i method. so 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, if you it can see much more about it. so what have been run the or how you have the 5 of us then uh, i'll do for fee so you can either get his fuels regularly thanks for 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 forcing. what every software means that what accumulates and here hundreds of thousands of years ago and became chopped underground 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 they uncle fuck could last another 200 years. but that is near the siding nor easy to
5:35 am
a long time. translational agreements on a you when project aimed to ensure what days use fairly and sustainably. so dense government to create a new law on what to use in 2022 of a seen by the minister feel free to get on what are resources. so far they have built that to you at small was for the public, and 6 deep was for research purposes. and i think i'm as a captain and i'm going to dress up. oh wow, what we'll see. and then yeah. so the, the possibility of we'd production in the nose and then rely on the state of the house with whom i don't think we'd 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 a 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 just told you that uncle file has not been measurably depleted. nevertheless, the regions population is growing in size and the numbers of farmers and head as to
5:36 am
geologist, abdullah on their regularly visit the villages in the northern states to money tell what to use to live through the electronic devices without spread out over the entire nose and state not all that are intended to monitor the changes occurring in the water level. you will see increasing the certification linked 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 and animals survive here. some places have been dry full as long as we can remember, but they and other places getting dry of buying 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
5:37 am
to adopt has to the 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 into a humanitarian crisis. the shepherd from the somali region of 50, 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 would allow that? you have come? extreme weather events like this, drought 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 please your and the horn of africa. it made conditions, especially hot and especially dry. we found though that's the joke in east africa as the med exceptionally by time of change. so basically what we're saying is with
5:38 am
the climate change, that's kind that the mug me to the, what's the cause? 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 bamboo crops are dwindling, or the western u. s, which has battled omega drought for 20 years. but how exactly does this happen when we burn fossil fuels? we released greenhouse gases, but heat or atlas here 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 $1.00 degrees celsius compared to pre industrial levels. that's a limit. many countries have pledged not to surpass because it creates the optimal conditions for disaster is linked routes. is warmer temperatures typically mean greater kind of are basically a thursday or address day or more of aspiration from the surface and the dryer
5:39 am
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 fall easily throughout the year, these regents may experience short and frequent burst of heavy rain. so 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 soils to drive down. and that can also increase throughout risk and severity. when i drove the strike 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. the droughts can also affect the water supply of urban populations for their plumbing and electricity. in 2018 reserves and the south african city of cape town were so low
5:40 am
that there were fears the city could run out of water altogether, a so called day 0. these types of conditions can raise people's entire livelihoods . a situation many if you can, shepherds are currently struggling with how much i do. 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 droughts at everyone equally. but what climate experts stress is that some communities have fewer resources to adopt that if we continue business as usual, if we don't realize that's actually we are coming on the planets, we have hacked in the most vulnerable people and it's up to top looters to make sure, the crisis let these don't become even more likely water. just one
5:41 am
more amazing thing the auth provide for us, as long as we use it sensitively. but even areas where the res, very lead to what some life is able to strive. we want to look on one particular plants that could prove surprisingly useful to us. no doubt you guessed it. if not, this weeks doing debates will give you the onset and a whole lot more that seems like prickly and spreading everywhere. the cactus has few friends in senegal, with one exception is malik sonya. the young scientist and ecologist count gets enough if the spiky supplements, which he says are full of potential. when the soil and his vintage of familiar became celebrated, all the pumps died except the comp time stops. when sonya came up with the idea of doing something with them, they picked it up. is that was it?
5:42 am
i sealed a few samples in containers down the middle. we'll develop 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 agra, nomic energy, about 100 environmental purposes to get everyone to me. is that and is it ignores the, is that either the mental sonya grades different types of space? she's on a small experimental fund of to help us thing that crushed to make clean energy and apply a gas pump. the solid and mix with respiratory nice and use for organic fast eliza to test it to fax him that he's trying out a homemade firefight, eliza on his own field. it's out but it contributes to the restoration of the plans by capturing organic elements that are converted into mineral elements of i mean that's causing you to buy a guess from conk twice a cooking. i don't comics stuff,
5:43 am
eliza to improve crops. maddox on this concept is tailored to small farmers and remote regions. he wants to pump to heck tests, and his village is similar to his cactus innovation project. seeing. and that's just the beginning. and how about you? if you're also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us a tweet. hash tag doing your page. we share your story. it's. it's not just cock, this is the time cope well in drawing so many legions like chick fees a will. so drug resistance bought, that's not only the attractive quality here in africa. we have a lot of experience. we've expended dry spills. bump in you. it is something new that is right, sandra finances,
5:44 am
and some firing from near the german cup to little bro lane. have now started the experimental cultivation of watson known as like julian, those plans and the results look promising these farm, the sa, preparing chick p seats for selling as the plant is not native to central european soils. they need to advise that will be of up to you to help it convert nitrogen from the yeah, which reduces the need for such a long as the farmers hope. the simple tweak will allow them to grow more the sustainable protein which plants from the lake you, family, or by the 20th must be crowded, such as a broad beans or peas, which are native here. this is the bacteria are already present to them as well. but with soybeans and chick peas, the bacterial strain doesn't exist here yet. between them is like humans which also
5:45 am
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 leaching out nutrients. so these chick peas are grown without onto official fertilizes, which are energy and emissions intensive to produce. plus, if all goes well, the problem is, can also do without artificial irrigation. check the plant evolved in middle eastern climates and can get by with little rainfall. these are the ones the off time. we try to plant them around 2 and a half centimeters, deep and moist, occurs to get the germination process going to. and the advantage of this variety is that it loves dry soil that talk leaving chick peas on grow much here in germany
5:46 am
. the thought to change in future as human induced climate change is causing hot and dry weather isn't email so, so we're looking for lake rooms that we can easily market can come and ones that are more heat and drug resistant. and broad beans are peaceable in order for the absence on those. and that's how we arrived at the chick pee and comes and it's got a lot of uses and it's nutritious. what on 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 aspire, i guess. first to shift springs out, then appetizer. freshly baked bread with homeless made using chick pays from fan hard to fund a month. it says from specific days perfect, and a wonderful the locally sourced restaurant hopes,
5:47 am
the featured chick peas on his menu more often in future and a few kilometers away. the next top is already sprouting. once i noticed the me below the surface, we can already see the 1st routes a moment. so that claim is a crop scientist at the live minute center for cultural landscape research. his team is acutely interested in the chick piece here. what does it mean? it wasn't light, so we want to find out the fly. goodness can help make agriculture more sustainable than 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, in fact 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,
5:48 am
future crops couldn't eat little to no artificial thoughts. eliza, like humans around the crow, known about 2 percent of gym and crop land. in recent decades, cold grain and rape seat of the comes so widespread, the many like items are imported. above all. so it means that they don't mind visual nesbit stress inductance. i'd love to see like humans cultivated on the say, 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, 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 hodge fund them of it's that he's still
5:49 am
trying to sell the organic chick page from his 1st 3 years of cultivation on the 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 in the price just isn't what we need to break even, and we'll talk with you. but it's pioneering work you and yeah, but we know that we also see creating a sustainable value chain is something elizabeth failing of knows a lot about her idea or southern future. approaching mich crops will not only be grown here, but also cleaned packaged and sold. there's a salesman to enable, it makes total sense from the nutritional standpoint. if you're able to cut down on meats on an increase plump production style, again, listen, the task is does have to admit that swimming again 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?
5:50 am
now, a few years ago, she founded her own chick piece next company in the eastern german city of lab session. she says she's glad to a found a time in front of the business model of the mission the all the scheme of under the climate change often lease my feeling helpless member comfortability with a here is how awful everything's going to be force brought us on the floor and you rarely get any specific ideas, the solutions i wanted have you have i found something with my business where i feel confident that i'm on the right path van. i'm promoting a group of sense that has the potential to counteract climate change. and the next spot you of crunchy climate friendly chick peas is sent on its way to a big gym and supermarket chain and media vague. and it's also hoping that dr. mine for over i tease of like you and we'll catch on in gemini, and the pharmacy will be able to sustain that. we trans fullness feels well the time is right. me. those next loop
5:51 am
tasty. i'd 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 the last please. well, the salt content mix it on usable for human animals and most plants, and it's not true stage. but there is a solution. europe lodges, the salvation plan is in spain and due to drought. but see if it's running around the block. extreme heat and droughts do not the people in cities. they're expecting major population centers like to causes london staging. tokyo cape town and boss alona and to cities located by the c. one solution looks especially promising celebration the selling ation these combination of catalonia
5:52 am
in ne, spain is one area in europe where climate change is getting hot. the region isn't the correct because the 3 year drought, the reservoirs that supply the city of bonds, alona are only one quote to a full use ortiz, of rationing the wants of the industry. and i will quote you, but also for local residents and tourist. 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 was the plans in the products that you got the knowledge just in your outcome with the maximum capacity in a 180000 cubic meters of water per day, which we can sustain for as long as necessary,
5:53 am
and that would be more incentive. so just to see what it is each it up salt has a very high boiling point. well, water already of operate at a 100 degrees celsius. as the water vapor is full through a series of membranes into high pressure in order to filter out the salt things to it, sufficient renewable energy technology, you'll click on the can seems 25 percent less power than other plans of it signs. but even then the sun, 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 now we increasing more plans say why there are other solutions. i'm so so in my opinion you should use discrimination only for the very,
5:54 am
very crush of me. it's like bringing both up to the pollution and the and the medium of what the political issue because there are other sources of law. what's there that you can use other sources or other methods? in october 2017 is a 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. no one should be showering more than twice a week. and the topic has to save as if your life depends on the city also invested in better wastewater treatment tons today the dams on well filled and disaster has been evaluated for now. meanwhile,
5:55 am
in barcelona to choose. and likewise changing. we cannot say ok, we're going to be disagreeing from 2 feet of the eighty's. i've got that i'm supposed to have 20 medium tories plus whatever that would go to them. the industry just with the sending nation paths 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 the hotels alone can seem 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 an end. 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 that cross. gonna see you next week, sometime, some place until then do stay and thoughts visiting all social media channels for
5:56 am
now, i am sandra. nobody from comp hello, frontier in uganda. the, the,
5:57 am
the beautiful nefertiti who owns her egypt most prominent work of arts and germany's most iconic museum, the art historian, benedicts, so forth, reopen the case around the bus. she asks,
5:58 am
what will cultural heritage meet in the digital future? the w climate friendly steel suite is already producing it and changing the way to a new era for the entire industry created using a hydrogen technology sweetness. theo is carbon neutral. it's also faster and cheaper to make me in 90 minutes on d. w. the one of mankind's oldest ambitions could be within reach.
5:59 am
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 that the russians no longer need the baltic states. why should name? there's no gold. it's only just practice at the base of the clock. 7 months before russia attacked ukraine, a filtering documents of daily life out of the town. how are the people of from o'clock dealing with the growing tension? they change their world. hold on,
6:00 am
we are with you. leave me inside. starts drawing on d w. the . this is, these are the news 9 from the and in israel and this military operation. and this is the of jeanine that's behind the room itself. the 2 days of product strikes and rates, at least 12 palestinians were killed. and this new rocket fire from gaza is israel also coming up doesn't enjoy it including 12 to.
