the. 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 in meeting cultures around the world, people learned to classify small handful of animals with edible and all the rest of the classify as disgusting. the w series. so, but i don't know where complex relationship with animals need to be watching. now, on youtube, d. w documentary the it also says and it just secuity is an issue from the kids to cairo, means live with all the electricity on those who are connected to the greed leave with frequent blackouts. welcome to a new edition of africa. i am sunbrook a home, is that coming to from complex right to and you're going to know, let's say
10:31 am
a big hello to my colleague t. hi, chris. hi, sandra and hello to you. all of us. yes, m a g is off topic once again, but we are concentrating on solutions to the problem. things like renewable energy sources. i am chris alarms coming to you from nigeria, and this is what we have in store for you. this week. also driven motion from jimmy, well, super to use environmentally friendly cross products and by the task up and you wrote best buy initial pharmacy, i'll come back to it for trade in excel. take what like a photograph of ambrose the to our shows of how animal portraits are the best way to protect the 1st 5 diversity. the energy translations can kind of feed africa in numerous ways. it eases dependence on expensive climate damage in force, it feels on it brings energy to remote regions quickly and easily. it also opens up
10:32 am
new opportunities to find the thoughts sustainable systems. currently, many african countries upgrading or expanding the energy sectors for this task is a life saver every day. it gives people from nearby village is clean water, something that can't be taken for granted in this rural part of central ivory coast . okay. yeah, by little by see there's no water in our village because there's no, well, yep, that's why we come here to get the water. i mean the little except for this tell jenny c for on the water has to be pumped from underground, but the area is off the electricity grid instead. solar energy provides the power for the pump from small beginnings, 12 years ago. the settlement which includes a religious center and the home for teenage girls now has full water towers and $24.00 solar panels with
10:33 am
a total output of $4500.00 watts. that's enough to power the drinking water lighting, refrigeration, and communications. it would be if it came to the beginning, there was only one unit test. so because there was only one house to supply this one up quite a then came the girl center of monday. and after that the settlement expanded. okay . with 3 new buildings sweetheart. and a little bit and there were 2 more large buildings. and as time went on, we completed the installation and that's why there are several solar panel arrays here for this. it's not just ivory coast to rural off goods settlements, but also its urban areas that can benefit from renewable energy. the challenge is how to safely build up infrastructure and ensure reliable supply. in 2022 full professional associations joint forces to form a federation. so they could speak to the government with one voice. for example, when it comes to dealing with surplus electricity, no sweat don't,
10:34 am
would just have to. we would like to see the sector authorize to feed electricity into the national grid to come up with these when you aren't able to consume all the solar energy you produce. and you can't diverted to the grid, you lose out. and that reduces the added value of solar investments, velocity and then this is the amount of money that's what pressing question for invest as as ivory coast has pledge to increase the shape of renewables in its energy mix to 45 percent by 2030 in the north of the country, the book, the solar farm is the 1st of more than a dozen projects aimed at reaching that target. the 78 heck the facility over seen by the state on see i energy cost, 40000000 euros. it was made possible by a loan from germany's k f w development bank, and the ground from the european union as the comb with aiming to produce 5100 megawatts of electricity for cookies was including around 400
10:35 am
megawatts of solar power. we have a number of projects with the private sector partners, but the bungee any power plant is the 1st to be built by the state. building the power plant is expected to generate $37.00 megawatts of power enough to supply $30000.00 households per year. and such projects create more than just electricity . they boost employment. john says, although women under represented in the green energy sector, the german development agency g i 's, it has set up a mentoring program to count to that. this energy project manager has taken a young student under her wing and is helping her to find an internship. one of you have to take these courses seriously and make the most of them by asking lots of questions. the electrical engineer says she remembers what her career thought was like and really wants to see change. soon done. but i mean, out of 15 engineers, i was the only woman that's already a problem right there,
10:36 am
from what we need to raise awareness more generally to tell women that it's possible to do this g funk cuz it simply seem to fit the pro fed mentoring project names to increase the proportion of women in the renewable sector from 25 percent to 40 percent in the near future. maybe you remember a report with the a few months ago about a co pay alex made the bush growth. now, young people in month of glasgow working on the project to produce and fire, mentally friendly fuels from view new able sources. what are the same time stopping trees from being cut down? that is a crease. and the special thing about these projects is that the german college students are quite a bright thing on the projects, the young people from both countries coming together to bring the project a step closer. how to make the most efficient, grow,
10:37 am
sell it. that's one focus. if unions, process must, is basis at the center of innovative energy systems that does sort of university union is also working on cooking staves, to optimize the growth pellet fuel and help reduce deforestation. and motor gasket the condition where if you turn to the cold and then we can just deliver more efficiently, those to countries in the global south and say this will help a little and understand by them for what would only have a minimal effect on producing deforestation. that and that's why we said we also need to develop a more efficient alternative fuel. the original idea came from members of the mother got the students and environmental organizations. as you pass. they constructed eco friendly stoves and made fuel pilots from compressed across the students. then brought into local communities, protesting the students from gemini, sold the projects during your visit to madagascar. i'm want you to develop it so
10:38 am
that what kind of feel is in dire need and not a gasket. what deforestation has that a massive impact? traditionally, people have cut down to use to make charcoal fuel for cooking. now only 10 percent of the original 4 is cut the remains a devastating habitat last so many species on the road. miss kansas gulf is widespread in southern madagascar, wherever it enjoys rapid robust grace locals often done it to clear fields. a dangerous technique that causes many wild fires. the occupant team identified midst comes across as a valuable the souls and the source of income for residents. we are planning to make like a must seize mass production of these uh pallets. and at the same time, most production of these, especially if exposure that these a month is a compatible with these uh pallets,
10:39 am
and the we are going to promote it in the whole country. to me learning gemini, the students from decibels university, aided by a local vocational school set to work on designing a solar powered pilot factory designs to enable the mass production level, tentative fuel, and not a gasket. a chopping machine on hamilton, the gross, independent. the choice like treat can be dismantled to states into, to shipping containments with the production costs that some 70000 euros collected by a crowd funding for the all. for if we just testing everything on the web, then to help build it will send the students who are working on the project on who are doing this is on it. but yeah, martha is out today. we worked with the school class to prepare the construction problem. for example, we pre drilled the roof from a so the on site to assembly will be easier. that way we would have to do and drilling down this, we can just screw it together. you know,
10:40 am
to them or solve missing the pilot factory is destined and done and then go key instead of another gasket, the site was chosen because of the abundance of mrs. kansas across here on know me . well enough label might not be in april. we normally start cutting and collecting grass again. see if you've allowed this is the time when it grows everywhere. yeah . but the payments, i mean, case it rains after we've gotten across in april and then we'll get a 2nd comment until 5. we get a lot of up yeah. and to mid 3, hundreds and the village will profit from this project were kids. yeah. and people weren't home the forest any made mity shoot on most it will be replenished with and the situation will improve and have been has have 10 times. it'll start again a $35.00 quino bag of chuckle costs full year rates, the same amount of gross pilots, just $3.00, which could help the new fuel cap shown. if we are successful out that and just
10:41 am
hustling about the scott, then we are going to spread the plant, the end, the technical in the whole country. so just little if you need teen has such a not for profit company to support the venture with the test phase successful, the pilot site tree has been packed into the shipping containers and it's expected to be set up in the augusta in october to see what it is all unique or the less substance winches our thoughts helps us regulate heat on transport goods. we even fly to squeeze in slots of it because more and more people and also need access to these costs results. so through sandra, only 3 percent of the woods, what the result is, the drink couple. the rest, the selling agent polluted or an accessible evicted from gone is drawing the
10:42 am
attention to the value of this important results with an equally unique campaign. but that has put on his cost and made recycled swimsuit and his varies the swimming of 11 kilometers. is a distance you'll cover every day for 40 days. and that's an overall root of 450 kilometers. passing along the volt river and then to lake volta, the world's largest artificial reservoir. it's one of the few lakes and gunnar, that is so clean enough to swimming and activist in every business and type in a type as part of a scientific expedition that's seeking to draw attention to the pollution of gone as waterways. so much of the reason that i'm part of this expedition and working with a cruise to do this research is because it is so encouraging and so amazing to be able to swim and simple to river like this. and i'd love to see other work for buddies and so on. and specifically across the, the swimming. the again started started complaining against environmental collusion
10:43 am
some 8 years ago. and that's when she came into contact with the oil foundation and environmental justice nonprofit, the organized expedition other members of the team also spend time on the water, the, the examples of various points along the route. here we can see the color is very different from the rest of the water that we've been swimming along. so he is a green, it's really changes. i mean, it depends on the places where we, uh, if we are close to villages, for example, we will be collecting some samples for back to a logical checks. if we are close to factories or industrial areas, we will be checking for heavy metals. for example, like here, the other villages better, which now has a number of industrial sites like the sun mine, the pollution it creates has had a devastating impact on the local fishing industry. the area you still have lots of
10:44 am
fish is yeah. the overall look good. then all the fish are gone to this, you know, up to san minding and the leg has destroyed our livelihood sign. uncle is yeah. oklahoma we are a fisherman. again. that's how we make a living and assessing and beginning to now we even struggle to find enough fish to eat ourselves. and the guidelines it got to often on the mining industry is not totally harming the environment. it also makes the process of purifying drinking water, much more expensive the spectrum work that would suit amato settlement. and so the principal, generally the book and more often done a dispute. so possible for meeting us on these forms also both and the, the, the 2 of us will have to be back to what i know, what are we done with support that we use and that's just one problem. chemicals
10:45 am
and ways from households in other industries. also a good time to watch uh, along with many of 15000000 items of 2nd hand clothing sent, they're gone every week. over 50 percent of it ends up in huge weight feeds and across the good the all foundation is loving the government, but also wants to raise public awareness of just how harmful the waste is. the important loading waste in particular. so many people don't even understand that we have the 2nd until the thing coming from the level to the global cell, or that there are other issues that are affecting the policy by water. so what we want to do is really hope to bring attention in awareness to the quality of the water and the issues that i play here to get people involved. this was the fact that the 1st 2 men contain is feeling tight but optimistic that one day given the laguna and across. once again,
10:46 am
the clean enough to swim in. in 2022 the you adopted a reverse action plan to come back to the legal trade in wide life. you think lose stronger controls and strict sanctions if time animals are supported illegally from the country of all region. but on to the system takes full effect, big predatory costs, reptiles, a red bet species continued to be brought to europe illegally. spain has become a gateway to wildlife smuggling heart is still in the wild. with now, can you live to send an enclosure? spanish animal shelter near on a counter. the female clouded leopard is only 11 months old, which he has suffered greatly. caregiver, belly die is nursing her back to health. a queen go sila. oh, good yellow. she was confiscated from a private owner who had neglected her. so that means she must have been poorly fed from the start. and she's even gone blind to. the private breeder now has to face
10:47 am
the authorities for violating the convention on international trade in endangered species. the east asian founded leopards is also an endangered species. so can you is a rarity. spain has become a gateway for a legally traded exotic species. the police often find them when inspect the ships arriving in a country from the nearby continent of africa. maria pay us their works for a special environmental crime units, passenger luggage here that the airports, she's found birds, snakes, and torches for the kids. so sad lot 5 topic will be so ruthless. people have no chromes about tearing these animals from their habitat, told them no,
10:48 am
not in treating them like twice when i say that i'm my being forwarded to this police video from september 2021 shows the liberation of a female chimpanzee, who would be alone in a cage for 5 years. the illegal imports of protected animals are rising. in 2022 smuggling into spain increased by more than half compared to the previous year. a full service and 3 minutes total organized criminals are often behind it trapped and then by ability. think of some of the things you need contacts in the country of origin to find the animals in it, and you need a network in europe to import them. and they will seal this as a highly profitable business, benson k. but as a monkey, for example, it might cost $5.00 or 6 years in africa, and here it can fetch 2000 bureaus or more. he load. oh includes so much. according
10:49 am
to the world wildlife fund, fiscal oval business is worth a billions. sophia says the illegal animal trade comes a 3rd after drugs and weapons, but its impact is underestimated. to daniel people, the people it allows arms, trafficking, and drug smuggling are taking more seriously. more effort is put into enforcement, wiley, and what about the legal animal trafficking is just a serious, but it isn't seen a search. it's not pursued and prosecuted as often that makes these crimes even more lucrative facilities. don't have enough specialists to investigate properly, and animals are often rescued when it's too late. as with can you the collaborative leverage? the fact that they lost the yellow she used to use to people and she's blind in the wild. she would never be able to deal with her
10:50 am
own species. but saying she was raised in captivity. so she's condemned to a life in captivity and go to the other so. so with this illegal trade makes, can you and many other wild animals like current products that lose their freedom forever. what's a sad story and many people don't even realize that the trade in exotic animals threatens the bio diversity in the places with those on the most come from but one man from december community, can you just fight it against the wide live tree? exactly, crease. ambrose is on live stroke on this, but he does have the talent for photographing and he wants to use his pictures to show the device the and the beauty of he's 90 region is all equal. he will be sweep
10:51 am
a little to is a man of many talents. he knows exactly what he's doing. and the 30 year old canyon is also a talented photographer. he says he began taking pictures to help him better understand his environment. so the one thing that the really put them into, i live with that i've used about it by the ocean. so i was just wanted to take up the offer to hop on. but so like, i'm able to identify that this has been able go conservancy and central can. yes. i'm listening to i works here off to studying wildlife management and conservation at the college by taking photos of the many animals that live here. ambrose hopes we can raise awareness of spc that are valuable for reason it's
10:52 am
dangerous. many locals, i've seen his pictures and he often visits schools to talk to young people about the environment. what are the visions, most of the like, elephant as well as did alpha and the other one of the ways that threaten and the, the only thing that they're gonna be able to use is for the program on the desk to 10 home on the new for said the out of the out that i didn't to add onto the want to share your story. you need to of a photo. what i feeling i'm verse betrays animals such as the african left, but that at risk from poaching. i lots of habits. he's even fountain red black let's let's for the messiah photographer, the biggest subject to the big cats is climate change for minute, the plan spaces that disappearing. yeah. just because of the claimant's and that is maureen's and just said yeah we, we defense a very diverse 13 k. duvall dropped on that on the i was i be so in the not be
10:53 am
above, that'd be for the day then the low. but in the past where like another subject is that locals have often killed liquids because they select live stuff, which is the livelihood of many people. here, ambrose is building understanding that community level. these women used to cedar rapids as enemies. now they work to protect them as leopards attracts to wherever it is. and that means drugs they call themselves to momma's or liquid mom is we have come to understand the cause of each one of the important of it. because now the formation of tree, my, my of me a little foods such as new sources of income, the women's collective mix jewelry and soap. and has now even built their own sense with the proceeds. this wild lives kids resort center in the middle of the savannah at what school founded by i'm bruce led to lie equipped with reading material and
10:54 am
by not kayla's. these kids are on the safari today, the bud spotting and the trip is proving inspirational. i mean, if i get the with selma who level now i want to educate people of the importance, i'm convinced them to start quoting at all for fun. so mom, i know the children are also aware of the financial benefits of conservation. given that if i am a customer, i would like to protect these animals because they help the country is going to change it safari tours and brings us money. people come to see that i know and, and that generates revenue your best. so it helping improve people standard of living it and, and, and then grow simple if it was done. this is latoya. why says he's optimistic about the future because it seems that young people are becoming more environmentally aware that it's a,
10:55 am
you'd sent day. so you understand it because i did become able to learn to say that i'm and so i'm going to send that to learn about 12 day. of course, i want feeling put to think of what the about this particular about on the line that you won't even know some names is pictures of some plants that do funding this particular area and they know the use. so that is somebody that makes me happy. the local defence population remains a concern. in 2019400 of them were counted in the nearby loose sab conservancy. i'm breathless. so do i hopes that he's what can help ensure a safe future for them? the time, just so by this week, so fast, it was great having you with us. we hope all shield was both entertaining and informative. remember we all need to take care of the environment that's open. this week's episode. no, it is a good buy for me, right? here in comp, hello uganda. and good bye for me tonight area. if you want to know more,
10:56 am
10:57 am
10:58 am
15 minutes on dw food is full pleasure, health and environmental protection. so greenhouse gases come from production folks, what kind of to so good for the climate? how should we go about developing climate resilience, vegetables, and what are the key considerations for sustainable to ours is the 90 minutes on dw, the how many pushes start out in the world right now the climate change. if any home story, this is much less the way from just one week how much was going to really get we still have time to act. i'm going to
10:59 am
flush the subscriber for more than just like 2 or 3 minutes. don't take mommy. under your mom, he's not coming back. it's over february 2020 to russian troops in faded the ukrainian city of compliance. it was recaptured. 6 months later the occupation this hard drive under russian occupations resisted who collaborated. how can life go on after all the terror? not everyone can endure the fear, weeks out every day. when rush starts august 25th
11:00 am
on dw, the the, this is the, the, the news live from the then thailand, school, the prime minister returns from it's out and is jailed taps. and she, no one is sentenced on long standing charges of corruption, which he sees up and is a key. most of the things that also coming up to you as president visits, hawaii 2 weeks officer, was deadly dissolved that to abide and use the optimal of deadly wild fires on the island of bali. and the criticism that his government was too slow to respond and
