ferguson, actually think of that is always highlighted because all the world we take the different w call, the world unpack pulse of your info is in all the input u, v. w story. now onto the it also says and it just secuity is an issue from the kids to cairo, means live with all the in a trustee 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, a big hello to my colleague t. hi, chris. hi,

sandra and hello to you all viewers. yes m a g is off topic once again. both 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 much and from jimmy will soon produce environmentally friendly cross products. and by the task of and you wrote best buy initial pharmacies. i'll come back to the trade in excel. take wed like a photograph of amber's. looked into our shows of how animal pull traits on the press 3 to protect the earth. biodiversity, the energy transitions can kind of feed africa in numerous ways. it eases dependence on the expensive climate damage in force. it feels on it brings energy to remote regions. picky and easily, it also opens up new opportunities to find the thoughts sustainable systems.

currently, many african countries upgrading or expanding the end of just act is this tap is a life saver. every day it gives people from nearby villages clean war to something that can 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 southcourt is tell jenny c for on. so the water has to be pumped from the ground, 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 a total output of $4500.00 watts. that's enough to power the drinking water

lighting, refrigeration, and communications. would it be if it can fill out a new one? at the beginning there was only one unit test, so because there was only one house to supply this one play, then came the girl center of monday. and after that the settlement expanded. okay. with 3 new buildings, 3, pardon me, a little bit in there were 2 more large buildings. and as time went on, we completed the installation and that's why there are several solar panels arrays here for this. it's not just ivory coast rule of 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, the sweat don't, we'll just have stuff. we would like to see the sector authorize to feed

electricity into the national grid to come over and use when you are a table to consume all the solar energy you produce. and you can't diverted to the grid to lose out. and that reduces the added value of solar investments. and this is a month, oh my goodness. that's a pressing question for invest as, as ivory coast has pledge to increase the shape of renewables and its energy mixed to 42 percent by 2013 in the north of the country. the book g. all the solar farm is the 1st of more than a dozen project aimed at reaching the target. the 78 heck to facility overseen by the state owned a c i n a cheese cost 14000000 euros. it was made possible by a load from germany's k f w development bank. and doug drunk from the european union on the call with aiming to produce $5100.00 megawatts of electricity for cookies was including around $400.00

megawatts of solar power. we have a number of projects with private sects upon those, but the bungee any power plant is the 1st to be built by the state to be are the power plant is expected to generate 37 megawatts of power enough to supply $30000.00 households per year and such projects create more than just electricity. they boost employment. john says all the 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. 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. so. i mean, out of 15 engineers, i was the only woman that's already a problem right there from what we need to raise awareness more generally to tell

women that it's possible to do this g funk. because it's simple, 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. a maybe you remember a report with the a few months ago about a co pallets 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 cuts down? what is right, crease and the special thing about these projects is that the german college students calibrating on the projects the young people from both countries. coming together to bring the project a step closer. how to make the most efficient growth of 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 pilot, fuel and help reduce deforestation and motor gasket of the condition where it fits into the cause 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 reducing 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 mallet, got the students and environmental organization. as you pass, they constructed eco friendly, staves, and made fuel pallets from compressed across. the students then brought into local communities, protesting the students from gemini, sold the projects during a visit to madagascar. i'm want you to develop it so that what tentative feel is in

dire need and not a gasket. what deforestation has out of massive impact. traditionally, people have cut down to use to make taco fuel for cooking. 6 now only 10 percent of the original 4 is cut the remains a devastating habits are lost. so many species on the road. miss kansas glossy is widespread in southern monica vasquez, wherever it enjoys rapid robust grace. locals often done it to clear fields. a dangerous technique that causes many wild 5 be occupied team identified midst comes across as a valuable resource and a source of income for residents. we are planning to make like a must see mass production of these uh pallets. and at the same time, most production of the so specific stover that these a, these a compatible with these uh pallets and the we are going to promote it in the whole country. meanwhile, in germany, the students from dozens of 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. but you'll the machine hamilton the grass into pellet, seen twice like 3 can be dismantled to face into 2 shipping containments with the production costs of some 70000 euros collected by a crowd funding all for if we just testing everything on the web, then to help build it, we'll send of a students who are working on the project on who are doing that theses 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 us. so the on site to assembly will be easier that way we would have to do and drilling down this and we can just screw it together and off to them or solve missing the pilot factory is destined and done. and then go

key in southern mother gasket the site was chosen because of the abundance of mrs. kansas across here on the full enough free lunch. they will not be in april. we normally start cutting and collecting grass again c, c of law. this is the time when it grows everywhere i made the payments. i mean case it rains after we've gotten the crust in april and then we'll get a 2nd tom. and you need to file the alive up until mid 3. hundreds and the village will profit from this project will keep. yeah. and people weren't home the forest any made mity shoot on most it will be replenished with and the situation will improve have been has a 10 times. and instead of getting a $35.00 kito 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 i'm to supplement the gift card,

then we are going to spread the plan to end the 2nd in the whole country. so just the 2 of you need teen have such a not for profit company to support the venture with the test phase successful, the pilot foot tree has been faxed in to the shipping containers and its expected to be set up in mount augusta in october to see what is all unique or the substance, dont quenches or thoughts helps us regulate heat on transport goods. we even slightest please 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 water result is a drink table. the rest, the selling agent polluted or, and accessible evicted from gone, is drawing attention to the value of this important results with an equally unique

campaign. but tulsa is put on his coffee, made recycled swimsuit and his buddies. this women of a 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 volta river and then to lake volta, the world's largest of the official reservoir. it's one of the few lakes in gunnar, that is so clean enough to swim is an activist in every business and type in a tetra 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 love to see the water bodies and so on. and specifically across the, the, some of the, again this down to containing against environmental collusion,

some 8 years ago. and that's when she came into contact with the oil foundation and environmental justice nonprofit, the organized expedition. the 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 yeah, and the other villages better, which now has a number of industrial sites like the sun mine the pollution and creates, has had a devastating impact on the local fishing industry, the area you still have lots of fish. this. yeah. the overall look good. then

all the fish are gone to is in up the san mining and the leg has destroyed our livelihood cycle is yeah, oklahoma we are a fisherman. again, that's how we make a living and assessing, and it's an end. but now we even struggle to find enough fish to eat ourselves and not the guidelines. it goes to often the mining industry is not totally harming the environment. it also makes the process of purifying drinking water much more expensive the spectrum work i would suit about the settlement, and so the pension generally the book and more often done a dispute. so possible for meeting us on these forms also rules and the, the, the 2 of us will have to be back to our what i know, what are we done with support that we use and that's just one problem. chemicals and ways from households in other industries. also good time. they the water long

with many of 15000000 items of 2nd hand clothing center gone every week over 50 percent of it ends up in huge weight feeds and across like good the old foundation is loving the government, but also wants to raise public awareness of just how harmful the waste is, the important clothing waste in particular. so many people don't even understand that we have a 2nd until the thing coming from the level to the global south, 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 lagoon and across once again the clean enough to swim in. in 2022, the you adopted

a revise action planned to come back to the legal trade in wide life. it includes stronger controls and strict assumptions. if 10 animals are supported illegally from the country of every day, log onto the system takes full effect. big, predatory cods reptiles, a red bed species, continued to be brought to europe illegally. spain has become a gateway to wildlife smoke like a heart is still in the wild with no. can you live in an enclosure spanish animal shelter near on a country? the female clouded leopard is only 11 months old, but she has suffered greatly caregiver billy die is nursing her back to health, a queen outside although the 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 cons lined. the private breeder now has to face 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 a ser, works for a special environmental crime unit, passenger luggage here that the airports, she's found birds, snakes, and tortoises. for the kids so sad the left side topic will be so ruthless. people have no chromos about tearing these animals from their habitat mental. no, 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 up to notify ability. think of something that you need contacts and the country of origin to find the animals. and you do need a network in europe to import them and they will seal this is a highly profitable business being taken care of. but if a monkey, for example, it might cost $5.00 or 6 years in africa, and here it can fetch 2000 bureaus or more. he never, oh, includes so much according to the world wildlife fund, this global business is worth a billions. so if you're

d as says the illegal animal trays comes a 3rd after drugs and weapons, but its impact is underestimated. a sedan and i think all the people it will ask farms, drive the king and drug smuggling are taken more seriously. more effort is put into enforcement twilio on illegal animal trafficking is just a serious, but it doesn't seem to such, it's not pursued and prosecuted as often that makes these crimes even more lucrative. the 30s don't have enough specialists to investigate properly. an animals are often rescued when it's too late, as we can you the cloud of leverage the business that they lost the yellow so rather choose to use to people and she's blind in the wild . she would never be able to deal with her own species. she was raised in captivity,

so she's condemned to a life in captivity and go through this with this illegal trade mix. can you and many other wild animals like her into 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 biodiversity in the places with those on the most come from but one man from december, community. and can you just fight it against the wide live tree? exactly, crease. ambrose is on live stroke fun, but he does have a talent for photographing, and he wants to use his pictures to show the de la city and the beauty of he's 19 region is all equal. he will be sweep

a list. so it is a man of many talents, he knows exactly what he's doing. and the 30 year old can be and is also a talented photographer. he says he began taking pictures to help him better understand these environments. so the one thing that really put them into our lives, they'll grab, he's about it by the washing. so i said, well, he just wanted to take up the offer to hop on. but so the guy able to identify that this is the naval go conservancy and central can. yeah. i'm personally like works here off to studying wildlife management and conservation at 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 dangerous. many locals have seen his pictures

and he often visits schools to talk to young people about the environment. what are the visions mostly like elephant us? why less 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 what they're going to on the, just the 10 i'm on the new for said the out of the out that i didn't the, i don't want to share your story, you need to of a frontal. what i feeling i'm verse betrays animals such as the african left, but that i risk from poaching. i lots of habits. it's or he's even fountain red black let's. it's for the messiah photographer, the biggest subject to the big cats is climate change for minute. the plan space is that disappearing? yeah. just because of the claimant's and there is no rains and just said yeah we, we, the 5th, a very diverse did think aid the drug. and i'm the because i may so in and that'd

be, that'd be full day. and then the little button and end up was for like another subject is that locals have often killed liquids because the strictly live stock, which is the livelihood of many people. here, ambrose is building understanding, that's the community level. these women used to see, let the does enemies. now they work to protect them as leopards, a truck to wherever is. and that means drugs they call themselves to momma's or liquid. mom is we have come to understand the close of each one and then put them over it. because now the formation of 3, my, my us, me a little foods such as new sources of income, the women's collective mix jewelry and soap. and has no even built their own sense with the proceeds. this wild lives kids resort center in the middle of the savannah . what school founded by bruce led to lie equipped with reading material and by not kayla's. these kids are on the safari today, the birds, spotty,

and the trip is proving inspirational. i'm going to get the with selma who level now i want to educate people of the importance i'm convinced them to start quoting now or for friends of mine. now 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 or safari, it's always and brings us money. people come to see that i know and, and that generates revenue your best. so it helped improve people standard of living. it gives me the name, growth of simple the standard and poors. literally. why says he's optimistic about the future because it seems that young people are becoming more environmental, be aware that is how you would since day. so you just say that 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 won't feed him to take off with about this particular, but on the line that he won't even know some names is pictures of the some plants that do funding this particular area and they know the use. so that is somebody that makes me happy. the local elephant population remains a concern. in 2019400 of them were counted in the nearby loose sab conservancy. bruce let's so do i hopes that he's what can help ensure a safe future for them? the time just hello 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 all this week's episode. no, it is a good buy for me, right? yet you comp, uganda, and good bye for me tonight area. if you want to know more, take out also shoot me the channels shown on your screen. i'm crusoe looms and i

look forward to seeing you again next week. good by the, it's the,

it's time for visionaries for sustainability. but also for horsepower. the, it's time for the mobo revolution. in 30 minutes on the w,
