3:36 pm
as an issue for sheila, along with green data g u n g o recently added organic for 2 lies that to his portfolio. they use a method that is simple, but very efficient. 10 the green leaves are soaked in what tab and then mixed with other organic ways such as vegetable matter of count 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 it. donald god, or did we've been to various schools on it, showing the student there how to manage waste some standard place and you are the young students are the foundation for the future. it. this is when they finish school, they should be inspired to contribute to the center seeking for the fed demand. so say that all the n d o is a pioneer encumbered room. if the idea of catch on many more young people in the

countries tend to benefit and the environment will benefit to one thing you absolutely can do without, if you want to grow crops or keep life stalk is water. well, water is becoming, i'm increasingly precious commodity. fortunately, some practices can help us useful to mazda spanish. we and indeed they all crease, and it's good while 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 fullness coping and what's being done to support them. let's take a look. mm. to appreciate the scale of the drug 10. can you? you only have to look at lake of both sides, which has shrunk like never before. almost 90 percent of it has dried up
3:38 pm
climate scientists ward the situation to get even worse. most clements, what else predictor 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 credit and crane and the hippo. the drug is a problem to, for people who live in the area. many farmers fear for their livelihood. the persistent heat wave, a scene fields across the country set ablaze. it's actually very, very, very bad. we have not had the readings there for most several
3:39 pm
years. we have had civil, corrupt affiliates. our plants are really not doing well. so we are really waiting for the readings, a lake or bullet 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 the construction work on top of that people often drove, drove into water from the area of the part of the water. and this lake comes from the hills behind me and you some i'm by that i'll have to come to me. i also have a lot of underground water for me, how much of a freaking on into afflict. there is no control or procedure that people there should follow to get their water would get 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,
3:40 pm
gutters and basins mean that also can be collected during the rainy season and then used to irrigate fields. when she loves up all the water which come from little pope, or maybe from this lot, most of the water pots, but this one of the technologies also we show the form of how to cut off of the ops, especially is that once we talk so will be a big issue about those to assist the oddest applies to the nip douglas douglas, so that they can be able to cop to all the top. which edwards this i think of that he of us. the fund is already working with a network of nearly 16000 farmers. there harvesting enough water to irrigate almost 2000 acres of heart, the cultural crops over a 3 month period. david comma is among the farmers benefiting from the project. the new methods mean he has enough water to irrigate his crops,
3:41 pm
even in times of drugs like no product. and i will be water project provided. be with a water pen. i'm up to model going on and that their body and i can irrigate by using gravity to come to the water and use a sprinkler spin across his farm board as a river. a bunch come a use of water upon a small reservoir to irrigate his fields and saved valuable water claimant. researchers say that sustainable farming techniques like these can help ease pressure on farmers even as we going to a possible field or in the season. we are not likely to miss out on $34.00. so we advice on what our consort 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

3:44 pm
potentially start bringing water from the northern hemisphere via defendant water to those 80 yards via the need this month. so it can be as easily scientist at the united nations university and also off the both unconventional water resources from a technological point of view i spoke to already told today ships from the oil and gas industry up pulling smaller chunks away from drilling platforms to provide a city like cape town with fresh water for roughly 10 weeks. we need some think a lot bigger than ice mountain wing 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. that's computer simulations from 2011. have shown that this is
3:45 pm
possible. well, the originally it's still a long way from luxury 3 d animation to reality one and the rocky company, the national advisor of euro s pets, into the technology, to eventually put it off. but they select the funding to start the pilot face. for now, you guys book idea is proving too big a fee to solve today's problems. so let's look to something lights up, something that can be found pretty much everywhere. like there, you know, in the morning everything is covered with a small droplets. guess what? these where the fault executive, council, fob humidity and it becomes liquid when it cools down. that's why i called glass of beer. this wet on the outside, even though this spilled over 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 have as this unit it to. so fog harvest team has been practiced by indigenous people on virtually every confidence. this is rebecca funnel. she's
