rachel stuart, and i'm hosting dw new podcasts, thanks trace amount, but it's still actually about joining us as we travel around your, facing the history of every day of that. and that's something right around the world. no need to talk to that just to subscribe already. listen to take you along to the right. the if i also, most of us will say, of course i love nice who was not like often that's not enough. hello and welcome. i saw the got the body and you all watching equally. to me, i really loved nature is not enough because many aspects of it all around us on the sex. and if the loved nature actually we must protect. and the key to doing this

is finished a lot more from lifelock level friends struggling with drawing the plans that they want, especially in the city site. first of all because they don't really know much about blogs or for me. and secondly, because the internet ends up giving them some genetic advice. but if an experienced farmer to help them with their gardens, wouldn't that make a lot of difference shorter towards like reading these big cities can one find somebody with such a specific skill set and knowledge? well, as a brand new to base stock job that is trying to bring together the traditional knowledge and skills of farming with of and gardening to me has lived and worked as a gardener in big lulu for 10 years. but he's always in a lease from a village to take it all mentors of the red heat. and the generations beforehand will find was on that one line. and then what happened was i bought a boat rentals,

right, and we became dependent on range to grow electronics. the rest of my family still lives on the farm. but i moved here to early, but they're living in the way that a friend introduced him to a social enterprise called open. molly, which means a wind guard. no, it aims to bridge the gap between out of will commerce and a need. and so to useful people with intimate knowledge of nita, one of his regular lines living on the feed as a dental area in the north of the big, the new to my profession. as a new charge uh, fix a lot from me uh, working on dollars, etc. but i couldn't then to the small garden that i had. but i wanted somebody to uh somebody to take care of for it to make sure that it was, it was fine. and then the billing had been any time i wanted to, i could go and get my fish for us from the gods and remain scares for the plans and gardens as if the will his own

my plans feel like they have been alive and kicking. and if you think that's the key, right, i think i can safely say that i've never, i've never seen that plant. i've never seen a sick blog and i've always and it's, it's always fresh. it's always good. and then all you've had to be when molly keeps it's health and environmental impact and minimal, for example, the only use natural ingredients and therefore the like the, the, let me sit in the city garden and so you don't, you give me this when you use the green dog, i mean for the laser regards, the roommate and bunch ago that gave me call that we used to use on the farm. weird things i say that i would get blisters on my skin and they even caused us tomorrow, you know, or guardians, we basically use do. i'm going to the thought everything i'm visited was fruits. and a lot of that on the, on sort of that me now, what do you want me to send out?

just the open. molly's gardeners have help set up and indeed around 1000 gardens at own bank a little it's not been entirely smooth. often they've had to challenge perceptions about what the garden should look like. residents tend to die or dies as pet dates or health and the environment. flashy exotics load out over native species. when molly's founder is b a heading, the drive to popularize native gardens. if you look at our grandmother stain and the guidance that they used, do it all native, they see what a piece of plants they will, plans that are used for the coughing goal at a fever or something that makes a delicious still say, but these are the plans that are used to the claimant or the environment that they don't if you're didn't water, these plants with 3 days they'd still know how to prove and, and so right. so then a defense that can easily be grown in your own garden. not, of course, to see everybody's favorite in such an auspicious plant. dream is another plant.

very good. folk often goes again in the flat in clans. hibiscus is, is one. if i need to read id, but things have changed in 2018, a so be off more than a $1000.00 fees was conducted along agreed in from bank a little city center towards nothing changes. it found that over half of the $93.00 species drawing dead out exhausted. many of the plans that were brought in. but how do you guys have your purposes? and what was it going to be in these of flats, inmates of plans of plans that grow. so when and spread so much in this new environment that they start eating out all of the need to florida. that's a problem because this new of soda, jacques, the butterflies, the birds, the bees that native to this, this habit that these individual plans are growing. the foundation for the revitalization of local health traditions is an organization that seems to divide

the use of native medicine, the plans, one, the not visits. it's most of the often to select good ideas for her customers. she can loan a lot from watching this denise. bob, who, who has been working here for 20 years. this is a very unique. i'm the mother that we 2 leaves. no, we can call it as a waiter to banyan 3. wow. well this is actually gone to the literally to yes. okay . when we go to products, uh some things and they will be in products and we will not get the solely we be looking forward to these goals. so let me lou seats. me think this is actually you will danger smitley. the bible call is this a function is garden, a place where people can learn about how esthetics and ecology can work together. one not takes the concepts back to open money,

and on the guidance they tend to use the some of the thing. and i'm in gardening gloves, we are like doctors and the work comes easy to me. the work hours are good and i'd really like my work in the city. i have logged in factories and company use. i feel i wasted so many years and art in solar to mobile. so what and now i work hard. i am able to support my family live, but a some rental for me a little when i went and went up the, the lease, i needed it. finding jobs for families affected by a changing climate is a just way forward and a win win for reuben migrants as well as the communities a. launching a wallace please seems like rather than bushes idea, but then cause a green was initiative in africa and china have been trying to create a more zach of lindsey to come back. desert just in case you get in there,

do the sample stop the advance of the sod as look which is often the source of for assistance. simon does storm. i'm watching the hot winds, the videos like these a popping up for the social media. they show colossal dust storms raging through delhi and the surrounding states. but this isn't a freak weather event. the storms are becoming seasonal. the task comes from the thought. does it like the sahara and the go, the it's expanding and destroying vital living space. i forgot, and china, i've responded with them. fishes prompting projects, great green pools of trays to try and stopped as a vacation in india. india is lucky. the north has a natural green bar at the arrival of mountain range, which is held back to thought as it for centuries. that is until now the mega dust storms and hot winds blowing in from the doesn't reckoning and lives of millions in the national capital region. in 2019 india made

a promising announcement. it would be prompting its own quite greenville, in the rockies to help fight design to vacation. but as we're about to see, was of trees have shown mixed results in other parts of 12. and the rather the mountain range is facing some serious threat to that side. so what can india do better? and will it be able to slow the advancing? does that the powerful does students have led to a spike and bronchitis, breeding difficulties and lung disease. they also destroy soil and damage crumbs, but this is not just the fault of climate change. direct human actions such as the legal, mining, deforestation, and of and screw eating with the mountain barrier and turbo, charging desire to vacation in the why to region. the mining is happening to us such a big extent that he loved the units being raised to the ground. there are millions and millions of people living in your without the and all the these are the desert is going to completely engulf entire or northwest in, you know,

but north india is construction boom demands building materials and lots of them. india, super in court funds mining in the release in 2002, 2009 on 2018. but the destruction of this ancient mountain range continues at an alarming rate of 2018 governments study estimates that at least 20 percent of the arrival of hills and brought just on double ready been lost to mining important ground water systems have been disrupted, and many rivers have disappeared altogether. the remedies h and for us to also in trouble. scientists calculated that since 1975 over 1000 square kilometers of trees have been cut down, replaced with housing and farm land, and taking into account illegal deforestation. my 6000 square kilometers of tree cover has been lost. that's the equivalent of more than 380000 cricket ditches in

2019 after season of especially punishing dust storms. the government proposed a solution in his ministry of environment. forest and climate change would create a great green gold. 1400 kilometers long and 5 kilometers wide to restore 1500000 hectares of degraded land and the revenue region and stopped the expansion of the thought as it would run through the states of good dropped raw just on cardona on delhi. worked as building a great green will actually mean, the concept was made famous by the african union in 2007, as a way to collect to the re green the saw. how does it region and create livelihoods for the people living that the original tree will project started off stretching from senegal in the west to booty in the east pausing through starting different countries. but of course, the progress across the continental is being sparsely distributed. you know, some countries have done much, much more than other countries, and it's not just the idea of planting trees because you know,

it could go out and boundaries. but what's really important is just anybody, how do you ensure that these things route to maturity. so we have to be creative about the type of trees that are planted, you know, and make sure that there's some sort of irrigation altering the trees. proved a tough challenge. but important lessons will on to results suggest that the most successful recreating on the continent has actually been achieved like thomas planting trees alongside the crops and countries like me, sharon malawi, one of the things that i would advise any country embarking on on these the project to ensure that the people, the communities are part of this right from the, from the get go. and the question, and have a clear understanding of what is the benefit of these project will be to them, because this is going to be the incentive for event reading work towards the success of the project as well. ok, is great. greenville is aiming to restore 100000000 hectares of degraded land by

2030, but saw fault while i'm to hosted the restoration target has been achieved. un estimates the project still needs about $33000000.00 of investment to complete it. the question is, the, would that be money? well spent a great green walls around the world and particularly the ones in hawaii in west africa, algeria. ready ready and china that have recently been reviewed in depth do not have a good track record at all. but if desertification desiccation. ready drying, things like this are happening. they're happening primarily because of global climate change patterns. and the idea that you know, trees are going to stop a desert advancing simply doesn't, doesn't hold water. trying to start it's prompting. it's great greenville known as the 3 north shelter belt project. 44 years ago. since then, the government has spent billions on tree planting. the plan is to plant in area or

forest, colorado as big as bronson italy combined by 2050. so there's still a lot to do, but can china is large scale, planting power set it apart? china is, is quite different from these other cases. and the primary difference is just the way china is governed and the way the chinese government gets things done. so come, india is government, get the great greenville done. the initiative was officially launched in march 2023, but since then, no prompting is yet being done. the ministry of environment, forrest and climate change says it's still preparing the state by state plan and identifying vulnerable hotspots. no one from the ministry agreed to be interviewed . local communities have responded to this government in action by experimenting with the own replanting strategies. we decided that we're going to plant or be newkirk species because in exports on high re, uh,

we reached out to exports to you about what it needs to take on. and that obviously flores. i'm the guys 1st project trunk boomed, an old mining site into what is now the roughly biodiversity pock. ready the team collected seeds from the revenue, or as to recreate hundreds of native plants and 3 species. the planting projects also made use of indigenous will to capture techniques to support the plants. they were generated in old good, and that's an environment and ditch structure i used to channel to during the monsoon range. and they also cleaned out. several jo had small palms that helped to recharge ground water. very, very clear that no water from our projects would go on and be those fine risk of taking water from the road or bid it would be good to get accept bought into the, into our projects. so kind of a great greenville help to restore india is a roughly mountains. well,

probably not the way things are going. the government doesn't actually take steps to protect that naturally one from mining from real estate development from commercial activities. then are these kind of teams on knoxville we uh, you know, it just going to be cosmetic, with communities taking the lead on localize, replanting the responsibilities now and the indian government to make good on it's great greenville promise, in forcing legal protections in the arrival these would be a good start. increasing extreme relative and select slabs and droughts have made weight synonymous with for security of the watering ukraine also had the store to clean it. however, several regions of the world are currently facing a city, a weed, green shortage, which can well be activated to climate change. for example, food losses can reach up to 84 percent in the case of a sylvia drought. but what happens is, if the with great becomes,

isn't in store all of these factors, the answer can be found in the climate chambers of a research facility in munich. cut this delicate little tongue help find food shortages, the wheat and this climate chamber is still an e 7 centimeters high. but in just 10 weeks time, the special variety will be ready for harvesting up to 6 times a year. and get some of the stuff in the end for the new to it's growing. well, it's already flowered, as you can see here, the guns, including the fuel masters to the green bio mass dime the what's left behind is the grain in the years or the couldn't. i'm the c l we can provide long periods of daylight to boost road is missing kind. we don't have to set the special times or it's cooler or warmer to is down the night. we can cultivate the plant at a steady temperature of say, 23 degrees and

a live lasting 1820 or even 22 hours on the side. of course that allows for a harvest with a high yield on sites on the team from the chair of digital agriculture, the technical university of munich, which is also funding the project control and test the various key factors such as light, temperature, nutrient supply. and most importantly, water they mainly use a loose, a nutrient mix job. so the worst that can be recycled, as well as a layer of horses that doesn't evaporate. this means that was that consumption is up to 95 percent lower than in agriculture. in recent years also has proved to be the most unpredictable factor in agricultural production. in germany, weak production remains relatively steady. but around the world,

it's in decline. droughts and floods all taking a severe toll. the bavarian town of n sync looks is it like is ever but farmer, bam hobbs high melva had to contend with several spells of heavy rain this summer ones that if his harvest is being damaged, he can now only sell it as animal feed. so dispatch as the same variety is bad badge, but there's no way it can be used for bread and support on either way. just when the wind was ready for a threshing of rain central wrench or late new minutes, i decided not to thrush it while it was west because of the drying costs and the more so. instead i decided to wait until the dried out put on. but it rained for 10 or 12 days, there was so much precipitation and don't go over that. and then part of the harvest was damaged and there was practically no more quality weak laboratory. this

item isn't the filter it's. i was fixed, it was extreme this year is it went from one extreme very rainy. i came to the very dry was then raining again. those is always extreme this year. sure, told is extreme cause on growing weak. tindles could be viable, not in the in regions affected by dr. so flooding, but also in germany to reduce the negative impact of agricultural production on the environment. and it's up to the full time. it has many advantage as a water requirement is extremely low. and we have no negative impact on the environment on bio diversity, that's one so, so we don't need crop protection. we can control nutrients in a very targeted way. one 3rd, we do have a high energy input, as well as the technical set up, which has a c o 2 footprint as highs as things stand. it will be rush to present this to the world is a solution, but it's a building block. this is one element in the food production process to put up to one that's already interest from countries like single pole,

egypt and the united arab emirates for reasons ranging from lack of space to water shortages. which garden and tools is a promising option. over the years, i have covered 7 whole stories about pharma scro deals being listed often it starts with the move in the production of a starch and cross usability of fluids out of eggs to it, which is followed by a drops stick drop in the market demand and then the farmers are just for us to either throw that for james on the streets, or just select a truck. but why? because they do not have access to a florida blue core storage. and is that produce is not immediately source. then it is good for nothing, but the knowledge of a group of scientists seems. i mean i do can help save all of this produce. ready we will know that fruit can run within one or 2 days, but this white sashay could change that, and solver, lots of food, ways,

problems that come with it. and the problems are huge. according to a 2021, un report, household food waste and india is estimated to amount to around 50 kilos capacities a year. almost $17000000.00 tons in total on consumed food, increases waste management problems and accounts for up to 10 percent of worldwide comp and emissions. indian angry biotech company green fault labs says it can extend the life span of fruits and vegetables by simply adding such raise to the transport box. a solution inspired by nature, simple to fulton, that's when a fruitful vegetable is kept at room temperature. and there's more than 3 times the chance of spoilage when compared to cold storage compared to that makes the lots of preferable in one sense. cuz a lot of it close to the cold storage is an expensive infrastructure that includes high capital and operational costs. so important to us,

the disadvantage of cold storage operations costs it. so i'm the, the now all of our products worked well in temperatures from 10 degrees to 45 or 50 degrees. 45 degrees, 50 degrees. so the sasha can actually replace cold storage on the quote stories, quotes up lessons. we please one i'm going into these small sashes, slow down the fruits ripening process. by harnessing natural plants, extracts then the lower band in it. generally old plants and trees have that right in defense mechanisms to fight to infections. which regards to the now we have the strategy in our product to follow tile compounds and to split defense mechanism and help to prolong shelf fly by 2 more days. and somebody induced when me, so that's actually not true extension bundled, the gone earlier. so really not to the company is embrace the un sustainable development goals of drastically reducing food waste by 2030

a lot of damage happens during transports. the green pod labs has done an experiment with freshly causes grapes. this is what they look like of the 10 days at 32 degrees celsius. some are already bad and this is a sample with a company such chaise we used able to for when transporting fruit and vegetables at the center space, economic loss on 2 levels. one on the 1st, the sportage drive of say they carry a 100 kilos around 20 kilos, a spoiled or input. and then the a t t lows can be solved will be. this is one type of why search on the input. secondly, already lost even the remaining a 2 kilos, deteriorating quantity and therefore lose value. so the seller would only get $8.00 to $90.00 repairs and instead of a 100 to buy that into and we sold both these problems with green part. it reduces the overall percentage of fruit and vegetable spoiled from 20 percent to one

percent or under the company. on the end, it brings financial benefit to our customers, customers, but the value so to can you avoid wasting food as a consumer by purchasing only as much food as you really need, for example, and sharing or distributing any food that you and your family county, among friends, coworkers, and neighbors. oh, by giving it to the need a by doing a thing left of a food to food banks the, this knowledge is the only key, the traditional or scientific that helps us to adapt. and so live in december changing what. what do you like me to? how did you like today's episodes and what sort of stories would you like to see more of? you can email us or write to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week until then take care. good bye. so let's gosh,
