8:30 am
i'm taking my music, same content every year, and this one, every dish, every hot we've got some hot tips for your bucket list, the magic corner check hot spot for food, and some great cultural memorials to w travel off we go the welcome to visit the addition of echo offered up, brought to you by jim this dw, like dia, risk channels, television. and you got this mtv representative here on the program by the
8:31 am
wonderful co host, sandra, well, phone queue creeks, and indeed it is good to be here. again. we've got a great lineup, so let's good we do it. but pulse here is a quick look at what's in store guessing the most amount of watson you've got also how and why a lot of what to post with. finally, how artists reflect the climate prices seem to be a what if you're a regular echo africa view, you would know, but one thing the world has too much off is waste. aside leads to problems. i'm really not the tech code in our lifetime. well, there is a very positive trend underway. more and more people are finding ways to turn waste into use. a product for support takes us the comfort room and the social stuff else is helping the community to save money by re purposing some of the waste of the
8:32 am
roadside. yeah, let's head with waste. but the who bots, it's a treasure trove. he and his team regularly head out together, vegetable scraps in the cumberland and communities. append. there's no municipal waste collection, so everything is up on the streets for the family green cooperation and g o. it's a valuable resource. who's alone policy? valo, he's in addition to recycle this household waste and the useful way to shop it's lying around everywhere and most of it is vegetable ways which can used to produce eco friendly charcoal for lots of people. yeah, it costs less, so it's affordable, not finding it honestly. if i meet people who of was to shop wake, rosie, i'm wondering when the team has all the equipment they need. they use a cargo track to bring the bags of vegetables, scraps to the respect thing got, they can process hundreds of kiddos of waste a month. the 1st step is salting the waste bananas
8:33 am
cohen storks as well as coconut, then fam, who branches are all good for making organic charcoal. just like the woods chuckle, the material for us has to be burned. the team works to keep the emissions to a minimum of the band, vegetable waste is then mixed with other organic waste and then combined with a gloomy substance derived from because of a plant. every machine yeah, was built by the n g o. but not every job is we not to make it. the last step is forming the shock cold by hand, and then placing the re gets in the sun to dry me say uncle machine to see if it's a clean, healthy feel that doesn't smoke by and can even be used in the home like and also the to say replace is butane gas out, i'm is on come to guys and also home plus, you'll guys, it'd be done a month at the same time. it also helps address the waste problem in the community
8:34 am
did going to and then it helps in the fight against deforestation, and helps address the problem most global warming. that'd be for special who has the problem, your wish will for monkey much 6. the n g o produces some 300 kilo's of organic charcoal. some of it is sold in major cities like water, but most remain in nearby communities to box and g o. now implies 12 people and they all receive a good wage. the organization offers internships to at the moment. catherine's belie bear a student from the coastal city of walla is doing an internship here the existing business that she needed to ski. i'd say um, actually it's about everything to do with that tax and environment a, everything to do with the old xanax. it was immediately won over by the fact that the corporation is involved in the production of file centralizes,
8:35 am
ecological chuckle, and bio guys. that's what he's shown to shovel inclusion, a guy the one i put you on, did you guys the n g o built it's fast by august spend for local farmers now they've expanded and also manufactured them for private individuals and institutions throughout the country. hubert has made a career of renewable energy and it's all because the oil industry didn't want him . history, the engineer between the do for my show up, i'm a trained petroleum engineer and in 2016 after i finish my studies was very difficult for us to find a job for you in the industry. so together with some friends and classmates, they came up with the idea to set up an organization to promote alternatives, to fossil fuels and all games i see on preferred i'll pull more show and as they not see us as an issue for sheila, along with green at a g u o recently added organic, fertilize that to his portfolio. they use the method that is simple,
8:36 am
but very efficient to 10. the green leaves are soaked in what tab and then mix with other organic ways such as budgets simple matter of how done. after several weeks, fertilizer is ready to use the n g o also does community outreach with farmers and schools. they hope to inform us over to using organic fertilizer or even take part in producing at donald god or did we venture various schools on it, showing the student the how to manage waste substantially. can you read the young students or the foundation for the future? it, this is when they finish school, they should be inspired to contribute to the 2nd. she's taking the said demand. so take the c n d o is a pioneer in cameroon. it's the idea of catch on many more young people in the countries tend to benefit and the environment for benefits to
8:37 am
one thing you absolutely cannot do without if you want to grow crops or keep live stock is water. well, water is becoming an increasingly precious commodity. fortunately, some practices can help us useful to most sustainably. indeed, they all crease on to it's good involved. they are a number of different ideas being developed because the situation varies from one country to another. can you, for instance, has been suffering from dropped for nearly a ticket. so whole of phone, this coping and what's being done support them. let's take a look. to appreciate the scale of the drug 10. can you? you only have to look at lake or both sides, which has shrunk like never before. almost 90 percent of it has dried up the claimant. scientists warned that the situation could get
8:38 am
even worse. most clements, what else predicts a that's extreme, where the events such as adults are likely to become more frequent. and most of you actually see that he's mainly going to do to the global warming and climate change . these images from june 2019 show the lake a few weeks after the rainy season. unimportant habitats for animals like the crew and crane. and the hippo. the drug is a problem to, for people who live in the area. many farmers fear for their livelihood to the persistence heat wave a seems fields across the country set ablaze. it's actually very, very, very bad. we have not had the readings there for most several years. we have a civil club feed. yes. our plans are really
8:39 am
not doing well, so we are really waiting for the readings like all the sites years long decline is a whole major problem. local conservation groups say a lot of soil has been carried into the lake following deforestation, and construction work on top of that, people often drove drove water from the area margin beginning of the part of the water and this lake comes from the hills behind me in the sun, i'm by that i'll have to come to me, hills have a lot of underground water, you know, i'm into afflict. there is no control or procedure that people there should follow to get their water jet in between. but how much it's vital that farmers use water in a more sustainable way. that's one of the goals of the night will be walter fund, gutters and basins mean that also can be collected during the rainy season and then
8:40 am
used to irrigate fields. when she loves up all the water, which comes from little pope, or maybe from this lot, most of the water pots, that is one of the technologies. also we show the form of how to cut off of that ops, especially the ones which are sort of ensure that those to assist the stabilized with the nifty. i get off it off so that they can be able to capture all that water . which edwards this, i think of that he was the fund is already working with a network of nearly 16000 farmers. there harvesting enough water to irrigate almost 2000 acres of horticultural crops over a 3 month period. david camos is among the farmers benefiting from the project. the new methods mean he has enough water to irrigate his crops, even in times of drugs like no product and i will be water project provided the
8:41 am
with a water pen. i'm up to model going on and that they body and i can irrigate but using gravity to come to the water and use a sprinkler spin across his farm board as a river of what's coming to use as a waltz or upon a small reservoir to irrigate his fields and save valuable water claimant, researchers say that sustainable farming techniques like these can help ease pressure on farmers even as we go into a possible field or in the season, we are not likely from the salt on springfield. so we advice on what arkansas visual missions, including what to have this thing and what and sustainable use of what are the threat to the lake will only worsen if human activities don't change. but more sustainable water usage could help prevent it from drying up the.
8:42 am
it is encouraging to see people find ways to use what's a more efficient be bought. you can only do lots if you have some water to begin with. in times when there is far to lead terrain, is there any way to actually produce more water? well, sandra, vast question doesn't have a simple answer. but as we're brought to discover, there are other ways of august and water from the atlas van fox said, we would also have a lot more to use if we pay more attention to how it's being wasted. this piece has exacerbated an ongoing crisis and is us water, gas, city, water salted, has become a never ending issue with an approaching global will also causes liquid, fresh water is not a future problem. half of the global population experience is what the scarcity of doing, at least some parts of the over consumption that he thinks planted and fads. water
8:43 am
management training, all ground water, rivers and lakes world wide. by the middle of a century, every 2nd country will struggle with limited access to water. to take up this problem, we need to manage our wants a better. we need to reuse it and figure out ways to use less of it. but that alone may not be enough. scientists think that we need to look beyond use it. lots of sources. that green for snowfall river run of around for to frozen i seats in the arctic still need is 70 percent of all fresh water resources globally. thousands of flick you dominos of ice breaks, falls as ice books every year at the males into the ocean. fresh. what's that? it's wasted beauty, such as damage to get that these up to the dashboard pretensions. soft drinking water from the northern hemisphere via data defendant water uh to those 80 yards via the needs this month. so it can be as easily scientist at the
8:44 am
united nation. so university and also if the both unconventional water resources from a technological point of view i spoke to already told to date, ships from the oil and gas industry up pulling small chunks away from drilling platforms to provide a city like cape town with fresh water for roughly 10 weeks, we need something a lot bigger than ice mountain, waiting around a 125000000 tons. in comparison, a large cargo vessel weighs around 200000 tons. and instead of pulling it just a few 100 meters, it would have to be checked thousands of kilometers. it's a huge feet, but the computer simulations from 2011 have shown that this is possible. well, theoretically it's still a long way from luxury 3 d animation to reality one in the rocky company,
8:45 am
the national advisor of euro s pets and to the technology to eventually put it off . but they select the funding to start the pilot face for now. yeah, i spoke idea is proving too big a fee to solve today's problems. so let's look to something like something that can be found pretty much everywhere. like there, you know, how in the morning everything is covered with the small droplets. guess what, these will be for executive council fob committee team. the becomes liquid when it goes down. that's why i called glass of beer. this wet on the outside, even though no this spilt over in nature. this usually happens in the evening and at night when the temperature has dropped and it's possible to take advantage of this phenomenon. and harvest this, you made it to. so fog harvesting has been practiced by indigenous people on virtually every continent. this is rebecca funnel. she's a consultant and research at one of the most successful fuck harvesting operations globally. you've got some kind of material. this one's nice and 3 d 2 got
8:46 am
a lot of physical surface for the water to get stuck on. and then as far as passes through, it's just a cloud, you can kind of see the spray coming through in front of the other, bigger net. and then it gets caught on this net put into practice. it looks like this. on the edge of the semi arid, i bump from region to morocco. there's very little rain. but for 6 months, a sick folk hangs over the region. and this fog passes 2700 square meters of mesh which makes it the largest for competing operation. and that was for condensers and trips into large underground deposits from where it is distributed by a pipes to people's home. and the nets collected around 35000 feet is of water every day, which fulfills the needs of more than a 1000 people. and it's even used to what the cups. today, the big folk harvesting operations in chile morocco gonna, they would try a, c o p a and south africa. but the potential is much bigger. they have suitable
8:47 am
sites almost everywhere. a 40 square meter net that is about $200.00 ages, but they costs roughly $1500.00. so the communities that would benefit the most from this particular technology are also those who are kind of most marginalized within countries. so getting the attention there and the kind of start of capital where it needs to be. it's not pill bottles. although capital is needed for ca, this thing is fairly cheap and scalable and a great solution for people living in remote areas. but it's not an option for big cities. there's simply not enough. bog and cities need more water than that's can catch all up solution does not seem very crazy at 1st. but what's crazy is the amount of water we could safe by implementing it. making pipes are the reason we lose nearly 30 percent of all fresh water globally. that's a staggering 346000000000. lead is a day to put that in perspective, that's 13 times more than german households consuming per day. or more than
8:48 am
2000000000 beth tops a year, perfectly good water. we could use to drink, wash, clean, grow food, fits just being wasted. like fun quote, we have done a full space. so we'll basically thomas, that was the time. this is lauren guy. he co founded the tech start up a stair. lummus is a bit of an understatement, a stair, a trex, lots of leaks from space. they make satellite images with the help of microwaves. the microwaves are reflected differently depending on which medium they hit, phone space we can get within the sci fi, underneath the outside input soto to enter the pipe sale. so i'll go through is actually a, includes thinking what we can say, phone space. if the, what the on the spot for like, for example, came from the top of from rain or something else. they're looking for the composition of the water. if it's drinking water, they assume it's a leak. and mostly the right. the results look like this. every dog on this met,
8:49 am
for example, is a leak into 2 and leak of over a 120 meters per minute detected and proud to italy, boy and bulk boy in chinese cities, estero sells those maps to utilities globally. so they know where to fix makes and save. money. locating leaks is only the 1st step in a long process. fixing one of the my trip new ones because of can affect the pressure within the buds. improving and renewing pipes and infrastructure is key to saving water and then any $40000000000.00 that going down the drain globally. when it's a lovely day in your pots of the weld, it's easy to ignore news report about the ident lead to reduce coupling emissions. so slow global warming, the schuman nature crease bots, they are also creative ways to keep people mindful of the looming,
8:50 am
ecological changes, all round the walls, as we'll see, you know, next report. when i next, we should see gemini, if you listen carefully, you can tearing across of household appliances, syrian performance, autism bus. absolutely. mon us grades and memorial like installation, out of a power of electronic waste. the work is kindly on display here at a cost holiday mon height and then the expression called $1.00 degrees, office, one all over the world. explore how the climate crisis is affecting outline the announcement message when we see ourselves confronted by a situation where the live style that we humans nurture. and that is accelerated over the last few decades, has let us into a crisis yet. this is the edit this time. we think it's important to you to address
8:51 am
this topic of the quote. also showing that art is an important medium for dealing with this questions. and one that can inspire us to reflect the missing punches is an artist. the biologist, on, on educate in his performances, his alter ego, he also duma draws attention to the destruction of his well not the president amazon. it slips into the role of a planned human highly to ship shifting into different situations. performance artist thomas claim that has the dedicated its way to new forms of movement, especially in yet he westwood discarded old passions. alice
8:52 am
cause i didn't vehicle it came of i'm the everything is moving. climate change means that everything has to shift and then came the question, is there perhaps the possibility of plans moving in new ways move this kind now the project across species test flights is particularly focused on this moment of floating the moment as for 0 for, for example, i've tried to record the movements of jelly fish or something like the constellation of flying objects with plans, so that they become a new living entity and high enough sol. simple approach, perhaps thomas klein plums to be on the side frequently for the tuition of the exhibition that visits this office of service. the completely me, it's becoming more and more important for us humans to make use of nature as a wind that always blows in order to simply live more ecological. you know this
8:53 am
world to make our ecological footprint a little smaller, some diagnose a month for the q a to these particularly important exhibits. images by the gym and austrian optis of some keep up. one picture shows the historical of 17 intensity of dipole. to address your business, that is the, with a lot of that seems to be to directly into the enough 10 minutes heat pump into the night sky. you see many white dots stars, encore, and the pin points. the stars with coordinates from now. so i know so it's actually a mixture on the one hand of our technological westernized knowledge. and on the other hand of the old tradition of star gazing. so as it was cultivated in india, in the city of dr. pour it well, it has an insanely rich cultural history who wishes to have the right next to a, the drawings by eva dental. the abundance of supp lights and space debris,
8:54 am
not all but to not planted houses, battiata as to create an entirely new cost to lease the $1.00 of the highlights of the exhibition is of course shifted coral reef by district in twins. has this margaret and christine for a time, but a theme is not the dead, a toes of the homeland. through an appeal. they found 4000 cool shirts and coordinates and i'm to help them create this korea. the message. climate change mitigation is a task that's like this. we can only be, must it together sometime across the i think it's often a fine line between art and the artificial not in that it's only when the beauty of nature is almost disappeared, that we begin to recreate it artificially not. and that's kind of crazy to inflict
8:55 am
yeah, most of the movies kind of have to put out until the stops to raise awareness and maybe that so. so a way to cope with it yourself to process which has gone wrong in the course of many decades. most he's still getting bound today to come up with the immuno 5 choice to live to use or for the for wells and is film screen and not the submission julian. shoddy displaced by wes running in with us over an oil ray fossil fuel that human kind has brought to the surface. punish back to the interior . if only with that simple lots of very impressive walks there. i'm afraid we've come to the very end of the sweet episode. we hope you enjoyed the program. didn't join us again next week. i am sandra 3. nobody else i need to from complex. right to end. you're going to buy crease season to bye sandra. and of course,

it's good bye to all of you to we look forward to hearing from you on social media about vis or any of our echo offer to shows so long from lagos, nigeria, the, [000:00:00;00]
