reasonable all stuff and what is this nonsense? i want my son to become a doctor to in the canal. it's time to to and then when generations clash, january 14th on d, w the and there is no denying dates offline. it's an irish and off the top of other words, people are facing extreme weather conditions. how can we best of protect ourselves in the future? that's what we'll be exploring in this specialization of echo oper costs um crystal . i'm calling to you from a very, with a cry in gunner and i am sandra 3. nobody. all right,
8:31 pm
to income prolong uganda. thank you for joining us. once again, whether you live in africa or in you in a city or a funding community. when the rains don't come, it brings cool thing is on the shortage of drinking water bottle. they are some citizens. this is what we've got for you in the show. today. we made the people tossing into issues we want to resolve in so that we find out how to make the most on the drought loving comfortable. and we see how you, of the biggest selling nation planned aims to point the song of by a 1st rate sold texas doing a read crisis redid region. so done was the ongoing conflict is wearing the people down, especially in the capital cost to it is the waves of drought that are really taking
8:32 pm
the tools on the population equal africa venture deep into the northern. so done to learn more about a centuries old, underground treasure trove. the people that are determined to piss off the the, for the most, you go into the done, the more how did you get hundreds of keeps telling me to as of the day is that it is hard to believe. but beneath the sun is a huge reese of a 4th to stretching from egypt pro so done to chide and libya called the new be on the sandstone. uncle saw it was discovered during the i'd really even the 1950s. you'll just of delta omar has been starting the uncle flow for 20 years. in some places. it's want to live close to the surface at home or off enough of these sorts in the region during the test really in 2004 i'm oh gosh, i'm either i'm heavy in the northern location, the depth of the 60 meters, or let me can you imagine one irrigation system that can irritate 50 heck,
8:33 pm
because the that's unique and it indicates the powerful flow, the reservoir and the order my, the for them has done a goofy look hole really just such as a harsher have benefitted most. so this also is discovery 20 years ago. they have hot regular access to water from us like up to have fees side of mid the most of it . he owns fuels covering several hundreds hexes and can grow a wide range of fruits and vegetables from 5 of beans to sold them. and as far as the dcf is mainly growing wheat and the how the culture the will to should be nice to properly, you know, size one is more of them. and you find that, i mean, if you, you asked advanced like methods, you have new technology used by more to it can be say you would be a little bit of trouble. tiffany: but if you use the traditional method, if you it can see much more about it. sure. what have been from you and how you
8:34 pm
have different values then i'll do for fee, so you can either get his fuels regularly thanks to the wells. he has built over the years, it's source cost him the equivalent of 450 years. but after that, the village of the farmers get the water for free, or the new vin sunstone upper flat is the, was largest false in what every silver means. that's what accumulates and here, hundreds of thousands of years ago and became chopped on the ground. but the uncle of us, what the results are finite, was some areas of a very low retail rate. others have not told some research as think the uncle fund could last another 200 years. but that is near the siding nor easy to a long time. transitional agreements are you went for a to ensure what i use use fairly and sustainably. so dense government a great a new law on what to use in 2022 of a seen by the ministry of you to get on. what are resources so far they have built
8:35 pm
that he had small was for the public, and 6 deep was for research purposes. i think it was a good thing and i'm going to dress up. oh wow. what we'll say. they don't need the possibility of weed production in the nose and then rely on the state of the house of whom i don't think god will actually value. and then we found out that we can grow more than $210000.00 take to is always in some areas that we are using the water of the aquifer. i mean that without causing the drop in water levels to impact. uh yeah, cause i had that right. oh that, that's what i thought of to know the huge amounts of what has told you that uncle file has not been measurably depleted. nevertheless, the regions population is growing in size, and the numbers of farmers and head as to geologist, abdullah on their regularly visit the villages in the northern states to money tell what to use your limit through the electronic devices spread out over the entire nose and state level that are
8:36 pm
intended to monitor the changes occurring in the winter level. you'll see increasing the certification link to climate change means what is more important than ever in this region. if the forcing water from the huge apple flap is used wisely, it could help humans and animals survive here. some places have been dry full as long as we can remember, but they and other places getting dry of buying the. the was climate is changing rapidly because of human activity. sanchez, binding oil on of the full so few hours. and for many people, it is hard to adopt has to do with 5 failed rainy seasons. nearly 2 years of estimated livestock failed crops and famine. a seemingly endless drought has good parts of east africa, pushing tens of millions of people into a monitoring crisis. the shepherd from the somali region,
8:37 pm
the 50 of you pleaded for help earlier this year was a hold of the people's lives are in danger. the majority of people have left the village because of starvation and those that remain here. i have nothing at all. so how can i help the school louder? yeah, do you have come xtreme, weather events like the stroud have always existed, but they haven't always happened this frequently or the intensely scientists from different countries collaborated on an attribution study. the found human induced climate change is a pleasure in the horn of africa. it made conditions, especially hot and especially dry. we found the best. the joe in east africa hasn't been met exceptionally by time and change. so basically what we are saying is we don't climate change. that's kind that the mug me through the job will go double cod. many parts of the world are already at risk of drought, but the kind of crisis is increasing this risk in some regions, such as england,
8:38 pm
where a river and one of its what us regents has run dry and some parts or taiwan, where been blue cross or dwindling or the western us, which has battled a mega drought for 20 years. but how exactly does this happen when we burn fossil fuels? we released greenhouse gases, but heat or atlas here that wreaks havoc when it comes to our weather patterns and makes higher temperatures. more likely all over the world. this month was the 1st time june temperatures went up more than $1.00 degrees celsius compared to pre industrial levels. that's a limit. many countries have pledged not just our past because it creates the optimal conditions for disasters like droughts is warmer temperatures typically mean greater kind of or basically a thursday or atmosphere. more about the ration from the surface and the dryer conditions and soils and reservoirs, climate change can also affect rainfall. some regions may see less precipitation, others may get more, but instead of having it fault even leave throughout the year,
8:39 pm
these regents may experience short and frequent birth of heavy rain. that's what this means is that you basically get these kind of dryer periods between rape. all events of allows for a longer period for the soils to drive down. and that can also increase a drought risk in severity. when i draw the strike, it can last weeks, months or even years, and that can become expensive. quickly. droughts have cost a global economy, tens of billions of us dollars over the past decades. one water intensive sector that is especially affected as agriculture. when crops fail, the effects can range from rising food prices to mass assignments. droughts can also affect the water supply for urban populations for their plumbing and electricity. in 2018 reserves and the south african city of cape town were so low that there were fierce, the city could run out of water altogether, a so called a 0. these types of conditions can erase people's entire livelihoods. a situation many as you can, shepherds are currently struggling with how much i do. i don't know how to do
8:40 pm
anything other than being a nomadic shepherd. i'm not educated and i don't know how to find out. this is the only way i know how to survive. in somali, the shepherds native language, the drought is called fema. that means equal because drought said everyone equally . but what climate experts, stress is that some communities have fewer resources to adopt that if we continue business as usual, if we don't realize that actually we are harming of planets, we are hacked into most vulnerable people. and it's up to top looters to make sure the chrysler select these don't become even more likely. c war to just one more amazing thing the author provides for us as long as we use it sensitively . but even areas where the rece very lead to what to some life is able to strive. we want to look at one particular plant that could prove surprising be useful to us
8:41 pm
. no doubt. you guessed it. if not this weeks doing good beat. we'll give you the onset and a whole lot more that seems like prickly and spreading everywhere. the cactus has few friends and sign a goal. one exception is malik sonya. the young scientist and ecologist count gets enough of the spiky supplements, which he says full of potential when the soil and has been it just for me. i love it, came selling. i touched all the pump, died except the comp time that's when sonya came up with the idea of doing something with them. they're pretty good at this. thank you. okay. i see a few samples and containers down the middle will develop that 24 hours. i realized that the cactus was able to produce the mit gas as it is. so i thought i would try to come up with the production method that would utilize the catalyst for accurate
8:42 pm
know make sure because energy about 100 environmental purposes, is that everyone to me is that and there's a big noise. yeah. is that either the mental tonya gray is different types of space, she's on a small experimental fund of to help us thing that crushed to make clean energy and a bio gas pump. the solid and liquids messaging us they use for organic fast eliza . the test it says active nest. he's trying out the homemade biased by saliva on his own field. ready itself, but it contributes to the restoration of the plans by capturing organic elements that are converted to mineral elements of. i mean that's causing you to buy a guess from conk twice. ok. i don't panic stuff, eliza, to improve crops. relics on this concept is tailored to small farmers and remote regions. he wants to pump to heck tests and instead of just a minute. so his cock, this innovation project seeing and that's just the beginning.
8:43 pm
and how about you? if you're also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us a tweet. patch tag doing your bit. we share your story. it's not just cock, this is the cope well in drawing so many legions like chick fees a will. so drilled resistance, but that's not only the attractive quality here in africa. we have a lot of experience. we've extended and dry spills. bump in you. it is something new. that's right, sandra finances on some fire and are in from near the german cup to little boy lane had no stop to the experimental cultivation of what to known as like julian, those plans and the results look promising
8:44 pm
these farm, the sa, preparing chick p seats for selling the plant is not native to central european soils. they need to advise that will be about to area to help it convert nitrogen from the yeah, which reduces the need for such a lines as the farmers hope the simple tweak will allow them to grow more of the sustainable protein which plants from the lake you family by the 20th must be crowded, such as a broad beans or peas, which are native here. the bacteria are already present in the swell. but with soybeans and chick peas, yeah. the bacterial strain doesn't exist here yet. between them is like humans which also include lentils, peanuts, alfalfa, and clover stand out in the plans well for being able to produce their own fertilizer with the 8 of those special bacteria. that's why in europe, crops like peas and beans were long a favorite with farm this as they actively improve so quality rather than leaching
8:45 pm
out nutrients. so these chick peas are grown without onto official fertilizes, which are energy and emissions intensive to produce a plus. if all goes well, the fonts can also do without artificial irrigation. the chick, the plant evolved in middle eastern climates and can get by with little rainfalls. these are the ones the off time, so we try to plant them around 2 and a half centimeters deep in moist soccer to get the germination process going to. and the advantage of this variety is that it loves drysdale oil. that's fucking leavings. chip pays on grow much here in germany that could change in future as human induced climate change is causing hot and dry weather. there's an email so so we're looking for leg rooms that we can easily market. i can come and ones that
8:46 pm
are more heat and drug resistant, and broad beans are peaceable in order to food absa on those. and that's how we arrived at the chick pee and comes and gets got a lot of uses. and it's nutritious. what and what better way to prove that point them with the trip to the village restaurant for lunch. on the menu today, chick p. curry with local classic asparagus. first, the chef brings out the an appetizer. freshly baked bread with homeless made using chick pays from found how to fund a month. it says from dice, perfect, wonderful. the locally sourced restaurant hopes to feature chick peas on these menu more often in the future or on a few kilometers away. the next harvest is already sprouting. what's that? what is the below the surface? we can already see the 1st roots. moments of acting is
8:47 pm
a crop scientist at the live minutes center for agricultural landscape research. his team is acutely interested in the chick piece here. what does open legal mean northern lights, so we want to find out if leg goodness can help make agriculture more sustainable and adaptable to climate change and whether they can also have a positive influence on climate change so that it's less extreme. so climate protection, in fact muscles, in fact chick peas and other legumes can contribute so much nitrogen to the soil, thanks to the bacteria on the root nodules that even the next plants growing on the field will benefit. as a result, future crops could need little to no. ready artificial fertilizer like humans around the credit on about 2 percent of gym and crop land. in recent decades, cold grain and rape seat becomes so widespread,
8:48 pm
the many like items are imported. the above all. so it means the state of mind is the one that's bas, trusting, and us as i'd love to see like you're miscalculated on the say, i've got 10 percent of the airable land here. i'm gonna have to deal with that. but of course, only if it's economically viable for the farmers and there was a market for it and one in rolanda for example, beans are growing on a large scale because they're a staple food and feature in almost every dish. or even with the advice of chrome system, scientists from the agricultural research center. it's proving a challenge for the farm run by band hodge fund them of it's that he's still trying to sell the organic chick pays from his 1st 3 years of cultivation on the have him come from. what i'm doing. that's like it's not me. it's not easy to shift this stuff right now and we surprised just isn't what we need to break even with it . but it's pioneering work doing. yeah, but we know that we also see creating
8:49 pm
a sustainable value chain is something elizabeth failing also knows a lot about her id or is that in future, approaching mich crops will not only be grown here, but also clean packaged and sold. and to enable it makes total sense from the nutritional standpoint. if you're able to cut down on meats on an increase plump production, stagen, listen, the task is does have to be smooth. that's why, really again, as a regional, sustainable source of pricing comes in to you. yeah. it's grown where it's needed and will be a great solution. and of course i have to go. there's only one person already counting on chick peas. is amelia big? now, a few years ago, she turned in her own chick piece, next company in the eastern german city of lives, which she says she's glad to a found a time in front of the business model of the mission. the all the scheme of under the climate change often lease my feeling helpless member comfortability with
8:50 pm
a here is how awful everything's going to be force brought us on the floor and you rarely get any specific ideas. the solutions wanted to help you. i found something with my business where i feel confident that i'm on the right path. savannah, enclosing a group of sons that has the potential to counteract climate change. in the next few of crunchy climate friendly chick peas is sent on its way to a big gym and supermarket chain an immediate, vague. and it's also hoping that dr. mine for over i tease of like you and we'll catch on in gemini, and the pharmacy will be able to sustain that each one's fullness feels well the time is right. me. those next loop tasty. i'd like to try them myself. and we just heard, like you don't need lots of water for the do need some. oh we do have plenty. just
8:51 pm
think of our oceans. 97 percent of both. the water isn't all sees. well, the salt content mix it on usable for human animals and most plants and it's not true stage, but there is a solution. europe lodges to solve nation plans in spain and due to drought, best. yeah. it's running around this lot. extreme heat and droughts do not the people in cities respecting major population centers like to contest lunches, aging tokyo cape town and boss alona on the 16th, located by the c one solutions, especially promising celebration the celebration. this combination of catalonia in ne, spain, is one area in europe where climate change is getting hot. the region is in the grip of a 3 year drought. reservoir is that supply the city of bonds, a low to are only one quote to
8:52 pm
a full use all which ease of rationing the waters the industry and i will quote you but also for local residents and tourist. i know i'm it wasn't shot because like it's during the city and even if i did come here to have on by there is no ortho. so it's kind of disappointing the thoughts that residents of barcelona still have drinking water to a tool is thanks in punch through the sun, a nation of see what will to the plans in the that stay open to god is the knowledge just in your outcome of the maximum capacity, you know, a 180000 cubic meters of water per day, which we can sustain for as long as necessary. and that was the 1st to see what was the is heated up. salt has a very high boiling point. well, water already of operates a 100 degrees celsius or the water vapor is forced through
8:53 pm
a series of membranes into high pressure in order to filter out the salt things to a sufficient renewable energy technology. you'll put, god can seems 25 percent less power than other plans to get signed but even then the sign a nation is still extremely energy intensive and expensive on the left of the water as a lot of salt and pollutants that need disposing of in barcelona it simply gets pumped back out to sea, not far off the coast. so now we're seeing more plants say why there are other solutions. i'm so, so in my opinion, you should use this information only for the very, very crush of me. it's like bringing both up to the pollution and the and the medium of what the actual because there are other sources of law. what's her you can use other sources. oh, other methods, you know, type of 2017 years of drought,
8:54 pm
a trunk water levels in cape town, the rest of was to below 10 percent. the region was set to run out of water in 5 months, due to the authorities to this building does not a nation pounds, but they chose a different solution. residents were told to drastically couch them will to consumption. no one from a showering more than twice a week. and the topic you have to save as if your life depends on the city also invested in better wastewater treatment tons. today the dams on well filled and disaster has been evicted to now. meanwhile in barcelona to choose and likewise changing. we cannot say, ok, we're going to be the destination 2 feet, a. d a to be looked at that and supposedly 20 medium stories plus whatever that we've got you on the industry just with the 70 nation that's. that's,
8:55 pm
that's what that what about the work catalonia is now also looking to reduce its will to usage a recent studies. so hotels alone can seem 12 percent of the available drinking water bottle evidence to risk. we'll also have to learn to use less. because in the end will to is not for fun. but for us, the vital of personalization has come to us and i hope we've given you a few good ideas, both ways to adapt to climate change so long for me, for so low and across. gone. see you next week, sometime, some place until then do stay and thoughts visiting all social media channels. for now, i am sandra 3. nobody from com paula, frontier. in uganda. it's the
8:57 pm
8:58 pm
shuttle? the 100 and key, more people than ever on the news world volume in such a fashion, life facile jessica middle castle. the piano. is it a mac on this? not the good news, the car battery or something, then that's okay. that's the nanda foundation. one back to the find out about robina story. in some migraines. reliable news for migraines. wherever they may be, the, the
