conflict to spread to more regions when they play movies, how to change. we solve a little of this. but over the past the one or 2 decades, we have seen an increase in these conflicts because blemish is pushing people to move from the not the way this out and sight of water and food for the i must be on the edge of the style. unpredictable rain, full and increasing dropped, combined with population growth means the smoke up position for fertile ground. so the fully and the heads are moving into new areas, impacting not only fields, but also a valuable echo system. how's got mentioned governor has failed to set aside grazing areas. so the cancel the food in the head is also face criticism. visual money. the numbers of the animals of this there's in this group needs
2:36 pm
a bad modification in a large scale where i disagree. this abortion solely for the animals, but we're also seeing the look every automatically by should not go beyond these numbers and responses to go and configure north and got the kind of judge set up incentive for the config transformation and peace studies. it's you have it herdsman, a son model and follow a real bobby underwood. i took the variances for mediation, the pharma still demanding compensation for legit call damage organization, also known as circle terms, has mediators trained to diffuse thoughts, conflicts, effect until december. some additional team was about to hear back from a most, escalating to a very high level, the position the working just just the police and the one will discuss that production of this vision. past mid farmer and heather bush and very good.
2:37 pm
in this case, the mediators role that the model doesn't have to pay compensation, but we'll, if it happens again, the farmer accepted the ruling, wasn't able to prove any serious damage to his trees. the 2nd tap says it has helped peacefully resolved more than 600 cases. and 2020 with landed with sources and ever shore to supply. fostering a dialogue between farmers and the hud is clearly advisor, 1st step to its peaceful, quick distant into why the region forests, how a so many benefits full the environment, including climate regulation, providing war to team the energy buying de la city and so much more. but they disappearing off and then allow me great over the last thing is can you as far as color has dropped from 10 percent to just 6 percent of the countries surface area.
2:38 pm
but there is some good news over the past 3 years, more than 5000 people. what illegally and pros, and then set to the in some parts of kenya's, karesha forrest, i've chosen to move out. this has paved the way for natural forest. the generation strong hands for dial, soil, and water from this simple starter kit. many trees will grow here at the edge of the curve, easy a forest in central kenya. some bir, or women grow seedlings by the hundreds and a community on nursery. once the siblings would sure they're put into the ground, the women receive funding from the government and various and g o's, $80000.00 seedlings have been planted so far. since i am jessie and i started to keep on the tree, nurseries has been a real benefit to us to do with these things if we can earn money with us and that's so we can pay school fees for our children to watch with local finance. have,
2:39 pm
or we can start a business at the moment. i'm 50 but that's a recent development until 2020 few simple real gave much thought to re for a station to make charcoal, many jump down trees and the korea forest covering 92000 heck, there's this forest reserve feeds many large rivers and is an important source of water and otherwise errands assemble, ro county over the decades. thousands of people settled in or near the forest and let their cattle grains their this unregulated use of the forest and its resources eventually destroyed one 3rd of its total area. the sum burro then realized that the over exploitation of the forest natural resources was putting their future at risk the body. we were having to track 5 kilometers to fetch water damage. the forest was clearly dine provoking, regular conflicts with other tribes over water and land. so in late 2019 december,
2:40 pm
we decided to leave the forest county as national broadcast or k, b c picked up on the story. some of the for me to use. i have already left the forest with others demolishing the houses as they prepare to leave the forest. those offered to see the one not forced out of the forest, but the king following, turning the what could have been a source of conflict between the government and the local community. was resolved peacefully as i think moving i way does without force from the government. oh, the for this is something unique in the world. so i think we but we, nobody forced us and nobody we just saw our appropriate. we saw that the most, i bang you and without the cluster we are also losing lives. when we go to look for stuff room and our neighbors. so we've seen the problems i knew say the best way to solve this problem is to move out of the forest and we,
2:41 pm
we take care of a, what a sort of that of what it's going to take care of last month. once the decision had been made, december were offered support from various groups, including the un food and agriculture organization which served as an intermediary . we've identified together the capacity needs of the key stakeholders to 3, then to 5 foot and says, what were the needs in managing the forest and ensuring that the default of just control and the also ensuring access and the really sustainable use of the 4 digits of your sources, such as making honey after being trained in sustainable be keeping by local and international and g o's, honey production has really taken off. the community earns nearly $30000.00 bureaus a year from the harvest. mostly we get up to one time, maybe in 2 months,
2:42 pm
or at least this uh with some of the benefits that get to because before the don't of these things. when chris a seat on the outskirts of the greasy of forest december out building a future for themselves, that doesn't come at the expense of the environment. slowly but surely the floor and phone are starting to flourish again. the main goal in year old climate change is making some of hops. a and fry include in and so then spring farm us. yeah, i'll having to apply all the new hall to keep the fields irrigated. and you might be surprised to hear that they are not planning to new techniques. a lot of the know how dates all the way back to the as shouldn't malls. they invented, sprayed over 1300 years ago. and some of the funding methods still work well to be
2:43 pm
stay off of perez is 95 years old, but he still lands a hand when he's needed. the hardly anyone in his village knows the old irrigation system as well as he does the same. the water and the canals was always the greatest thing for me to return to their fields with it. we lived from those canals. so the, the other, the, the, in the 8th century, the more is built a complex network of canals in the mountains at the awful hot are region in southern spain. even today, the irrigation ditches are still used taco and his son antonio use the system to water, their pepper crops. so they're benefiting from the moorish legacy. now
2:44 pm
they had only got a system i left as something very important and the, even though the romans built irrigation canals model, if the higher it's perfect the but many of the dishes hasn't been used for years. that's why they're restoring them in cooperation with archaeologist. jose muddy and martin c bundles. he says the benefits go far beyond farming. not a good place you on a well like this one here are very important to the environment. now if it creates life, i'm being thought of some of the water seats in and appears further down below approximately an hour. if i thought the guessing seems that the way the system contribute to grace or bio diversity, emma different when i that i'm the rest of the network of canals prevents the water from draining too quickly. water that's becoming increasingly scarce. papa says there's no denying climate change anymore. yeah, yeah. well, who do i have? it hasn't snowed in my village for 18 years. you know,
2:45 pm
12 ever before. we always had to sweep the snow off of the flat roofs and onto the street for all kinds. sometimes we'd have snow for 15 days, 20 days a month. those days are over. reservoir show the notorious water scarcity. and yet spain is farming more and more tropical fruits like mangoes and all the condos which need lots of water. as a result, farmers are light increasingly on automated systems that deliver water to individual plans. drop by drop, the agricultural engineer, eduardo maldonado, says the old canals are obsolete because water seeps out in, evaporates as it's transported for the river. and i going to go to put on the trip irrigation. what is the future to live in through not available, it's much more efficient and can be implemented on the all types of firms for say really that of the implant, the feeling to get people that go to deal with something tennessee,
2:46 pm
welcome within the us to save between 40 and 60 percent of water and that's a sense of cancer that goes away. i was also an antonio warrants impressed. they continue to water deerfield with what comes from the moorish irrigation canals, but they recognize that it's not profitable for big farming operations. although most of these days, a lot of one person has to do many jobs, all the ones who but that's the real reason why they're switching to automated drip irrigation because it's not because it's better know because hello my new book or somehow ocoee or just view the moorish irrigation ditches as being more contemporary than ever. and that's why they're trying to learn from the seniors and the villages of apple. honda, in general, the more redundant knowledge has been forgotten or st. and then what if we look at deficiency from several points of view and also environmental benefits of the system. these are much more effective in most of most of my,
2:47 pm
especially against the backdrop of climate change today. technical julian deanna conflicts, so they come to the magical cell, phone, them, and palace that there are fewer and fewer traditional farmers using the old canals. that makes it more difficult to keep them more so legacy alive. it's probably a season from 4 digits to combat drought installs in you to fighting plastic pollution itself. easton off because we had now to mozambique to meet a young entropy new uh, she has started a business that makes the most of west as a result and reduces it in more ways. don, one the 3000000 tons of sugar cane or harvested in the plantations. of mozambique every year and processed mainly into sugar. this produces large quantities of waste which
2:48 pm
could be used to avoid other whiteness, but thought occurred to covina cocoa jemma or a company coco boxes in the capital. my porto manufacturers paper bags from sugar cane waste. most of them busy, so we produce different types of paper bags, but we make them in different sizes, from small to logins, of mileage. the puppy, fibrous sugar cane waste is turned into paper. the end product bags made from sugar cane waste or by gas as it's known. the company started 3 years ago. it now makes 5000 bags a week. a low resource replacement for plastic bags is low. so products and non toxic, unlike polyurethane. so they don't contain talks in the student, plastic waste as a major problem in mozambique as it is in all countries with poor waste management . a lot of plastic trash washes into the ocean and harms marine life. this is
2:49 pm
another reason why customers welcome alternatives, such as the co code bags supplies to please plastics. take an average full 100 years to decompose in nature. so the main thing is that this is an environment. please find the alternative sometime explain be coco wants to expand production of our sugar cane bags. think big is her motto. because for her, the banks are more than just a source of income. does that give us the middle? so if i were to win any a world, it should be from my mission. know because i'm such a great entrepreneur much. but because of our mission and the goals we set to publish it easy for those 2 object to what plans are some of the most precious a most stretching equal systems on the planet. they need to be properly looked after. not just because they're happy to for some of the species, but also because they provide vital services with humans. we'll visit on
2:50 pm
archipelago and nothing. you need to see all kinds of vision that fits the health and they just the 5 of protecting the interest of the local communities at the same time level. well, good luck because if you go run fast, this young turtle has made it as have many of its siblings. you have on the trip style items. local eco gods have kept the egg safe from poach as an anal shielding the baby turtles from the as they slip all the way across the beach. protecting the nesting areas is a community efforts when i need the zip code, but we have a eco gone. so you can watch morning and evening for the from the village themselves. now good just by the very presence, by educating their families. if they're all weapons, aren't that either nobody touches anything of it. so if that's the 1st one is to
2:51 pm
show the local eco gods have been working with an armed conservation core link to the news environment, ministry since 2013. that's when the true stone islands were granted the status of marine protected area. your arrangement was the combination of a 7 year process that combined the island of knowledge and experience with input from scientific and government bodies. one of the chief organizes explain the approach on the bottom of that, we set up a consultation framework where people are free to express themselves, often in the own lawsuit language to express what they wanted. we've then transformed the results of this consultation framework into a management plan. this is how the management committee, for example, came into being was it's local branches. i've accepted the money to go to my local the to still islands are a mixture of mine, graves, mudflats, forests,
2:52 pm
and sun banks facing the atlantic ocean. these largely undisturbed ecosystems are a june of bio diversity rising sea levels of putting pressure on the local communities. in 2023 seawall to flooded one 5th of the rice fields. the some 20 families formed the management committee to work together and build tanks to protect the fields. the initiative is part of an intelligent conservation approach that aims to reduce human impacts in bio diversity hotspots. traditionally, rice palm is such as a delay, cut cheque would move to move to land every few years. and that meant cutting the monroe for it. once they became aware of the damage that caused, they decided to stay put, see not, i'm ok. there was a mangrove restoration project. we realized it made no sense to plant main groves in one place and just cut them down somewhere else. and so we keep the fertile fields we have and don't go clearing elsewhere. would you be the main guy of trees
2:53 pm
on cristo a viable for bio diversity? i'm a juicing coastal erosion at the local eco gone from the conservation. coal carry out regular patrols on this tool. the conservation cool offices spokes, the trees have been filed. a good. hey, how come you? why is this would been co took all the locals made well, some trees for that use, but only if the request is approved at a higher level. um, what i had to move on, i mean, the local eco got explains to the office. so why these cutting was agreed on? what's going on there? the word was cut to make a road to the last village. we had nothing to make the road and there's a river in the middle. 40 that how much? so we cut the wood to make us thanks for the bridge for that you'd be of us and we didn't want to cut a new feet about
2:54 pm
a meeting of the people approved the decision they send because we had no other means of will not put enough left of the rules how to to enforce the nature reserve extends into the ocean on the joint patrols carry out unannounced cheques on returning fishermen in case they've quotes any protected species under the watchful gaze of the eco gods. the crew unload sits. catch these rays or quickly endangered a tense discussion followed as the official unexplained themselves and the conservation co officer lays out the safety of uh, 5th official note. did we tell them to release them back into the sea up once in a mistake you more? if they are already dead, we ask them why they caught them and explain why they should go out and catch them another day on purpose. us put it this time, the fishermen get away with
2:55 pm
a warning. eventually this community base conservation effort aims to win over everyone on the trip. so i like a story, the goals to show what, how much can be achieved when people understand why protecting the environment is important. we've come to the very end of this week, so we hope it has given you something to think about. am sandra holmes, that we know do sign and go from complex, right to a new gun to see you soon sandra and to view is, don't forget to check us out on social media. and remember, you can always get in touch with your thoughts and ideas on making all well the safe and green a place. but now it's good bye for me, chris lives in nigeria. so you next time the
