size and just sort of too heavy to is exploring modern large style and submitted to a meeting. people, you engage the mediterranean, the suite dw, the if i asked you, most of us would say, of course i loved niece who was not, but often that's not enough. hello and welcome. i'm sorry we got the body and the all watching equal. to merely loved nature is not enough because many all specifies all around us out on the sick. and if love need to actually we must protect and the key to doing this sinister knowledge more.

so why put onto level friends struggling with joining the plans that they want, especially in the city site, 1st 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 will do 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 bilingual based stock job that is trying to bring together the traditional knowledge and skills of farming with of and gardening. memories has lived in book as a gardener in big noodle for 10 years. but he's originally from a village to take it all meters of a weird he and the generations beforehand will farmers on that online. and then what happened was i bought

a boat really dry and we became dependent on range to grow electronics. the rest of my family still lives on the farm, but i moved there too early, but it doesn't leave it 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 city. useful people with intimate knowledge of nita. one of his regular lines living on the feed as attention area in the north of the big new to my profession as a new charge. uh fix a lot from me uh, working on dollars, etc. but i couldn't 10 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 can be in any time i wanted to, i could go and get my fish for us from the gods and remain scares for the plans in a garden as if they 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 a dead plant. i've never seen a sick blog and i've always, and it's, it's always fresh. it's always good and they're always happy. when molly keeps it's health and environmental impact minimum, for example, the only use natural ingredients and therefore the like those the, let me sit in the city garden, so you don't, you just give me this when you use the great dog. good me quite eliza regards the roommate and bunch ago that gave me clothes that we used to use on the farm. weird things i would say that i would get blisters on my screen and they even caused us to mark, 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 and not really on sort of at least now would you want me to the just

the open. molly's gardeners have help set up and maintain around 1000 gardens at own bank a little. it's not been entirely smooth. often they've had to challenge perceptions about what the gardens are look like. residents tend to die out or dies as pet dates of what 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's stain and the guidance of 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 payment or the environment that they don't if you didn't water these plans for 3 days, they've still know how to prove it. and so right. so then a defense that can easily be grown in your own garden. that, of course, to see everybody's favorite them such an auspicious plant. a drain is another plant

. very good folk often goes again in the flat in plants, 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 course. nothing changes. it found that over half of the 90 p species drawing dead out exhausted. many of the plans that were brought in by party guides are through focuses well as it turned out to be innovative plants inmates of plants, a plans that grow. so when and spread so much in this new environment that they start eating out of the need to florida. that's a problem because this native sorta attracts the butterflies, the birds, the bees that i need to of to this, this habitat that these individual financial growing. the foundation for the revitalization of local and health traditions is an organization that seems to

revive the use of native medicine and plans one to not visited. most of you often to select with ideas for her customers. she can learn a lot from watching this denise lab who, who has been working here for 20 years. this is a very unique. i'm the mother that we so leaves. no, we can call it as a waiter though banyan 3. wow. so this is actually gone to the literally do you, okay, when we go to products, uh some things and the products will be not good dorado. so we'll be looking for these goals. so it would be lu seats. me think this is actually it will you will ginger smith. the bible call is this a functioning 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 gardens. they tend to use

the in gardening gloves. we are like doctors and the low gums, easy to me, the work hours are good and i really like my work in the city. i have loved in factories and company use. i feel i wasted so many years and art in solar to most i wouldn't now i work hard. i am able to support my family live, but a, some rental for me a little when i went and one of the ladies i needed is finding jobs for families affected by a change in climate is a just way forward and a win win for rural migrants as well as the communities launching a wall of please seems like rather than bushes idea, but then cause a green one initiative in africa and china have been trying to create a more zach of lindsey to come back. does this just in case you can in the i do the

samples of 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 are popping up for the social media. they show cuz it also does storms rating through daily and the surrounding states. but this isn't a freak weather event. the storms are becoming seasonal. the task comes from the thought doesn't like the sahara and the go, the, it's expanding and destroying vital living space. africa in china. i've responded with, i'm fishes planting projects. great green pools of trees to try and stopped as though to 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 desolate a correctly man lives of millions in the national capital region. in 2019 india made a promising announcement,

it will be planting its own quite greenville and the wrapping these 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 revenue 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 dust storms have led to a spike in 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 illegal mining, deforestation, and of and spoil eating with the mountain barrier. and turbo charging does that to the cation in the why to region. the mining is happening to us such a big extent that he loved in units being raised to the ground. there are millions and millions of people living in york without the use of 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 a release in 2002, 2009 on 2018. but the destruction of this ancient mountain range continues at an alarming rate. 2018 governments study estimates that at least 20 percent of the arrival of hills and broadest on double, ready been lost to mining important ground water systems have been disrupted, and many rivers have disappeared altogether. the robberies h and for us to also in trouble. scientists calculated that since 1975, april, 1000 square kilometers of trees have been cut down and replaced with housing and farm land and taking into account illegal deforestation. my 6000 square kilometers of tree covet has been lost. and that's the equivalent of more than 3 180000. cricket bitches. 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 rot, 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 in 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 them to really 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 the hosp. the restoration target has been achieved. un estimates that the project still needs about $33000000.00 of investment to complete it. the question is though, would that be money? well spent great green malls 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 here's the desert, application desiccation 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 an area or

forest, colorado as big as bronson italy combined by 2050. so there's still a lot to do. but come, 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 that great greenville done. the initiative was officially launched in march 2023, but since then, no prompting is yet being done to the ministry of environment. forest 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 park. the teen collected seeds from the romilly forest to recreate hundreds of native problem to increase species. the prompting projects also made use of indigenous will to capture techniques to support the prompts. they were generated an old good, and that's an environment and ditch structure. it 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, big long and be those fine risk of taking water from the road or bid it would be good to get except water into the fall into our projects. so kind of great greenville helped 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 minding 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 its great greenville promise enforcing legal protections in the arrival. these would be a good start, is increasing extreme relative and select slugs and droughts have made weight synonymous with for security. the water new crane also have destroyed to plane. however, several regions of the world are currently facing a severe read green shortage which can well be actually muted 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 weekly becomes,

isn't in store 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 it's in the system in the end for the new to it's growing well it's already flowered, as you can see here, guns including the view of most of the the green bio mass. dont know what's left behind is a grain in the years or the couldn't. i'm the c l we can provide long periods of daylight to boost wrote the missing kind. we don't have to set the special times or it's cooler or warmer to is spent the night. we can cultivate the plant at a steady temperature, let's say 23 degrees in daylight. lasting $1820.00 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 in nutrient mixed. yeah. so the was 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, we 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 from a band hot to hi, melva had to contend with several spells of heavy rain this summer. once that if his harvest has been damaged, he can now only sell it as animal feed. so dispatch is the same. variety is bad badge, but there is no way it can be used for bread support on either way. just when the wind was ready for threshing and reins to wrench or late new minutes, i decided not to thrush it while was was because of the drying costs. and the more expensive that 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 wait. and those could be viable not in me and regions affected by dr. so flooding, but also in germany to reduce the negative impacts of agricultural production on the environment. and it's a beautiful tied to, 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, support up to one. there's a ready interest from countries like single pole,

egypt and the united arab emirates, for reasons ranging from lack of space to water shortages, which gordon and dulls is a promising option. over the years, i have covered several of those stories about pharma scro deals being based and often it starts with the move in the production of a starch and crop usability of fluids out of extra weight which is followed by or drops stick drop in the market demand and then the form of are just for us to either through dashboard use on the streets or just select as rock. but why? because they do not have access to a florida blue core storage. and is that produce is not immediate. these tours 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'll 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 in india is estimated to amount to around 50 kilos per person per 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 some chaise to the transport box. solution inspired by nature, simple to fulton, that's when a fruitful vegetable is kept at room temperature is 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 the fulton does the disadvantage of cold

storage operation, cost it good. so now the now all of our products worked well in temperatures from 10 degrees to 45 or 50 degrees, 45 degrees, 50 degrees, so the substrate can actually replace cold storage on the quote. so these quotes replacing replace, 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 life quite a more day is laying dose. plenty, so surely not true, extension bundled the gone earlier. so really not sure. the company does embrace the un sustainable development goals of drastically reducing food waste by 2030

a lot of damage happens during transport. the green pod labs has done an experiment with freshly harvest grapes. this is what they look like of the 10 days at 32 degrees celsius. some are already bowed. 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, those can be solved will be this is one type of why search on the input. and secondly, even the remaining a 2 kilos, deteriorating quantity and therefore lose value. so the seller would only get a to 90 repairs and instead of a 100 to bring that into myself, both these problems with green part of it. it reduces the overall percentage of fruit and vegetable spoiled from 20 percent to one percent, or under the,

on the end, it brings financial benefit to our customers, customers, but the value so to can you avoid wasting suit as a consumer by purchasing only as much as you really need for excel and sharing or distributing any food that you and your family county among friends, coworkers, and neighbors. ready all by giving it to the needs by donating left of, of 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 to do 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 if gosh, the,

the race for the optic is on. russia is expanding its military presence. nato is also preparing for the possible caution in the optics cope with our reserves of oil. uranium and gold. ice continues to miles. the optic new frontier in 15 minutes on the w is around
