for task next on d, w. well then progress pop calls to everyone who wants to know more about this topic. that concerned about this story is beyond the headline rolled in progress, the w talk caught the to hello and welcome to a new edition of equal offer go. i'm chris, a lens joining you from ogen state nigeria. today we'll be looking at everything from great. god mean ideas to critical issues like posted. but 1st, let's see. hello, sandra alexandra, hi,

grace greetings from uganda and nice to be with you again. olivia view is the hub, joined us today. i am sandra to be nobody of best in. you've gone this copy to come put out. well, environmental show is brought to you by dw e gemini, soon as tv in the area, and mtv right to you. good. well, here is what we have for you. today. the people is building 2. let me go ahead into the sample space on the west, in uganda. so wanting to nature, to making the construction industry more sustainable on securing a better future for open shields in getting it we can cope with a big problem that affects many countries in africa. poaching the huge illegal and then just strength in wildlife fonts is typically very difficult to

reinforces to just it's now a sense that in so tough again, has met. this is nation to tones to, to light on wildlife crime by fighting switching with forensic science. it's an all to come inside in south africa is reserves. ryan of killed by perches open to find the object killing him. it's often the 1st clue to catching the cooper . but it requires a lot of new house, an expert, then short supply. reg simpson is taking on the boat is butchering wildlife here this since most of these crimes and never persecuted the founder, that academy that helps train ranges another 1st responders, wildlife crime scenes about the importance and, and trick is ease of criminal forensics. we realized that a lot of the people that 1st came across these scenarios were not initially trained in handling a crime scene in particular was off crime scene. and this certain skills that are

really valuable in forensics is one of those skills. so we felt there was a great need and that training ranges and people that are 1st responders or even professionals that come across to nora's way when an animal is poached or isn't. and now they illegal activity. and if they have some of the forensic skills, then it means that now that, that investigation is more likely to end up in a prosecution at court. at this facility, the academy assimilated several different wildlife crime scenarios based on real world examples, including a snare drum. a lion killed by community members and the rhino poach was horn students, a trained and forensic techniques in order to preserve and collect vital evidence which can be used by authorities to move forward with legal cases. in this environment, we can expose them to all these different scenarios so they can learn how to

preserve and collect the forensic traces and document them correctly. so the lights are down the line, they end up with a successful prosecution in court. and that's what we've tried to create in this academy multiple scenarios, really drum and what that meant and then, and so, and then go back into the real world and much better at tech in while that's one of the main challenges when it comes to wad live crimes is that the generally a kind of remote places so it goes across the land as fast as coveted purchase will ambush their prey. an issue with wireless comments of need aren't any witnesses? there's no one else around. uh, maybe someone had a gunshot, the death, that's what do you have. but if you actually can link someone to a con through something like a footprint or a cell phone or

a weapon or dna, even that is really popular in court. often it's ranges if as discover an animal that's been approached, they need to be trained on the initial response is there's risk of evidence being contaminated or destroyed by winful rain before the authorities going arrive on the scene. and that could make or break a case is challenges in court. i think it should be full hands on the ground. feel changes as well. um, because they often the ones who do come across the scenes before we do the i do think it's something valuable for oranges to attend and to ask the applicant and submit as well. in addition to collecting evidence, students of the academy also take part in mock trials, whether you have to defend the evidence they've collected. the participants and disseminated quotes proceeding include former prosecutors, judges, or law enforcement officials. collecting evidence is the only 1st step and

a long legal process. in real world cases, ensuring that evidence can hold up in courses vital training which to, to 1st responders and those and to to understand the role it will definitely have an impact in fighting while of crime in the sense that it will lend lead to credible evidence which the prosecution can use in proving the elements of the offense against the practice of as pitching is a $1000000000.00 business in asia, one kilo of ryan on sales for tens of thousands of us dollars. the financial incentive is huge, rhinos, elephant reptiles and sunk in plants all pay the price will continue massage. the loss of life has profound impacts on the environment. these large, mega format, like elephant, suppose they have a really important role to play in an ecosystem. as prompt, if is as large animals,

they have an important role in shaping the environment and the habitats around them . they have a role in the disposal, nutrients, likely, and by removing these animals. and it's can lead to by diversity loss and changes and transformations of whole landscapes. in addition, it's kind of also need to uninstall that impacts the full don't full, increasing human was conflicts and having for the impact, something other hold tight feature and some ecosystem last year. south africa last 448 minus approaching incident. but we also have a 130 wrist, and a number of convictions, including one with a purchase was sent into 60 as in prison as wildlife primes continue. training and dealing with them become increasingly important to ensure that the countries biodiversity is protect. it will be returning to

the subjects of poaching a little later in the show. we look at how some of the trading victims of being rehabilitated so do stay tuned for that. now it's time for a visit to a school right here in uganda with some innovative peoples. are we pulsing plastic to roll their own a fresh and they've got into to see this tree and enter the coverage into that keeps you into bed in 4 lines. the young farmers of said kizzy to high school are successful. the produce from their school farm is used to feed their entire student population. the students at the school on the outskirts of compiler, already grilled vegetables such as cabbages, raised chickens, and farm little fish. no,

they're collecting waste plastic bottles, but they used to build vertical gardens in various farms and to make the most the remaining growing space use. it helps us in the way that we plant a lot of different plants in need. we have this come, always need. um we have the tomatoes, the tv, you know, if you have a small environment the to them, some of us have poor background. but to these have done help us in the way. it takes a little space. one, both to building as a result garden with mushroom cultures and waste caught in husks for soil inside the harvested mushrooms are sliced and dried for storage. this is cynthia, i'm going to go way of using our spacing to invite them into web by we're trying to avoid all the different for us. got down the defend cheese day. we doing this in development and the malware tied of it and have come of the solution through the projects, the students are learning innovative,

eco friendly and sustainable. growing practices, how to be self sufficient and how to guarantee a healthy diet. and how about you? if you also doing your bit, tell us about 2 visits. all websites will send us a tweet hash tags doing your best we share your stories. this is no sweets, coincidence, unsuitable is a problem that affects us in africa to west in germany. the construction industry is, was possible for around 50 percent of all west produced. few buildings are constructive, sustainable. so looking at how to change is that the idea is to establish a secular model to old materials are reuse or repub posed. but how does that work?

let us show you. these german buildings don't only look models, but they might also pay the wage with circular future. they're built according to the cradle to create a concept. the idea is to replace our cradle to grave economy, where we take making waste, with a circular one, with the products of designs in a way that it's materials can be reused over and over again. no, so p grief on is the founder of the cradle to create a lab. it's an n g o dedicated to spreading circular, we generally give design thinking across industries. politicians and designers. welcome to the crate us the cradle app. you can come in here. we start here, if you see like from the labs that you can see, it's from a mushroom materials totally for biological cycled according to the concepts. and what was the fee, grief funds? father michelle brown got and is callie williams. they've done

a created everything we build must go to either what they call the biological cycle or the technical cycle that meets the materials used to build the products, need to decompose, that's becoming nutrients for the soil or dismantled to become what they call technical nutrients. and re used in other products. and so we have an shows in here, right? you can see a lot of products that are already produced in a crate crate of manner. the flooring you can see if i move, i can actually take it with me. a prep pool that you don't need to do this. it is made out from miss packing materials. moving as an crated crate. not the best idea to do that because it's quite difficult to disassembled. the lab uses these carpets that are totally made of recycled fibers. not viewed, and you can bring it back to the company and they can just take a look and make

a totally new carpet out of a global refund. argues that there are a lot of natural alternatives to most of our commonly used toxic products. this material it's quite interesting because it's like a mid 200, but you cannot just take from the fee in 2 seconds. you don't need action to change it a lot. so called them 2 balls are basically dead sea grass that could be collected on shores and use as a high quality installation material. all these examples seem perfect and relatively easy to implement, but we need to change the way we have built our homes and products for the past decades. 50 years ago, we knew that that negative environmental consequences if we have certain building habits. so in the beginning they had felt that v require new knowledge is to be able to to build appropriately. but right now we have a different problem. professor arnold palmer can do is an award winning architect

mostly known for her sustainable projects like these ones. when standardization is being imposed, then the must have coverage to question the limits of standardization. and the construction sector is especially standardized and rigorously conservative. some practices haven't changed in centrally is to concrete. for example. it's the 2nd most used material in the world, only after water. if it was a country, it would have been the world's 3rd largest carbon polluter. after china and the u. s. last year, we produced 4400000000 metric tons of concrete. according to the u. n's projections at this rate, we wouldn't be producing enough concrete to build the entire city of paris every week for the next 40 years. ready that is a lot of concrete. and for several reasons, this material is not widely recycled. a big one is standardized,

bad practices says mar. so is there a circular engineer focused on cradle degree to applications in the construction sector? if you will, use educational tests are all concrete on the call people as wide and looks good. so they fulfill. suppose i use the quality of the call by not able to use these lights. so, gypsum plaster makes the concrete and recyclable. but a similar looking silicon base plaster doesn't affect every usability of the concrete or let's look at steel, a universally used material in construction that could have an infinite live cycle . just the simple decision to use bolted connections rather than welded joints would allow the structure to be dismantled, making it easier to reuse the materials. it's all about designing smarter. while these individual solutions are amazingly easy to implement, unfortunately,

they alone will not be enough to make the construction sector environment.
