we will face a number of problems for the, for see of, of what you're using, which do you political issue should we map out next? the every bit of additional woman adds great to risk for africa was drought more heat ways. and low potential crop fee is, well, what can people do about it? well, take a look at this addition of eco africa. i'm crystal lambs coming to you from lagos, nigeria, and i own sandrica homes that we, nobody, all joining you from comp hello. here in uganda, not only is the planet heating up, wildlife machines are on the loss of extinction. so how can we help them make us
8:31 pm
come back, learn more about it. why to coming up in today's feel? a how a wait, like sometimes 5 to how to ops kenya being sent from extinction. and how of motion library. it comes to them. these reducing clothing was tossed, we had to buy country y c. in uganda. imagine riding around on a wide motorcycle through the streets of a coffee to the east. no, it's a dream. we're seeing more and more of those emission free board aboard is causing to come the next report. as you'll see, shows up within countries can take

a real step or 2. it's even more ability as much more joseph didn't get by the is the proud owner of a motorcycle, not just a motorcycle, but to quite electric one. she received a load from an electric motorcycle company a year ago. was like one o 5. they give me i to know because i didn't put any down payment. it just gives me like i verify everything that's about 32 years per month. joseph kemp, i bought these motorcycle taxi runs on solar college battery. it's a real novelty in uganda. is the idea to sell e motorcycles on a pay as you go basis? came from the start of them both. it imports inexpensive electric motorcycles from china. the company charges the factories and it's workshop. if only if you've
8:33 pm
gotten to gasoline powered for the cyclic were replaced by electric one. it would save about $100000000.00 tons of c o 2 every year. but they are still around $600000.00 custody. i would motorcycles in the country, the startup symbol says, this can't be the future. and you've gotten the, we're importing the 1200s petro motorcycles every month to serve the market. and this should be electric, but to make electric we have to invest only not only in purchasing the bikes, but also the battery and charging infrastructure. the transition would cost millions of years over several years. so far, the only government support for electric vehicles has been to suspend import duties on electric motorcycles. even so such electric motorcycles still costs about $1300.00 bureaus. not cheap to buy local standards, but they are already more than a 1000 of the motorcycles in the capital composite. so the demand of their writers
8:34 pm
like the bikes, it saves the money cost less than a fuel bike operate, is we're just missing the money to invest, and it's difficult to raise as a start up in a relatively new business. and a new model. conventional financing for any start up is normally not an option. at least they have support from international companies and organizations, especially from europe and the united states. financing, green initiatives like this is important, otherwise poor countries in africa, in particular would not be able to invest in electric vehicles and certainly not did renewables. this would also help them protect themselves from the effects of climate change. according to the african development bank, uganda would need more than 27000000000 heroes by 2013. but so far the country has received only 10 percent from the global north. the w. w. s. uganda also complaints over lack of funds. and this way about the truck, additional investments, enough for them buy it. that's what governments buy or part of
8:35 pm
a 6 the companies in the global with. because then scroll under different when this settings of claimants they fix in mid as best we did the truck. those kind of investment age was only at the latest climate summit that the funds was set up to compensate those countries, particularly affected by climate change. money is now being paid in a so that regional banks and africa can also support companies like electric motorcycle start up assembled you can see that there's more funding that came through, especially for the african countries. i know right now to bank has been accredited by that's been climate funds so well, we're definitely going to be doing lots more things so we'll just need to be bored enough and give ourselves a target and see what you all have. maybe 30 percent of all of it to be green. joselyn came by is already driving green and does not regret her investment
8:36 pm
. even if it's still hard to find charging stations where she can exchange her empty back you for who of the place as you go to a new check on your location. by the time is up sufficient. may be your photo in the 10 somewhere. canada road. but if i don't find this station isn't, it will be tim and we've got new that'd be up to the village, the name of this, of the leverage. but so far, the suspicions i noted to extended that although this causes her to miss out on a few journeys, it's still worth it. as it's cheaper for her to maintain the electric motor cycle, then it gets the lean powered one. she expects to repay her load within a year and a half since she has no shortage of customers. most of my clients like it because the most of them doing like amazing is the thing is come on is so would most simply no pressure, no vibrations. and it doesn't pollute the environment drive,
8:37 pm
is it passengers may not always be aware of it, but the electric motorcycles helping come. thomas good time was a great idea on this. you pulled 6 us to cambridge in the okay, web hosting solar panos. when i do storage building is causing you to do face. so that's right, sandra. there we have some the optimism about renewable energy on the one side with the other 3 shade on what could be bright prospect. uh it looks like restoration work, but what's really happening here is a fundamental innovation. that's all old roles. the famous king's college chapel in cambridge is getting solar panels. the chapel is more than 500 years old,
8:38 pm
much of the structure, it's been original, but the lighting is electric. real tunnels. a launch the ornamental, the some of the panels will soon supply the necessary electricity for the chapel dean along the cheese solution. and when you begin to think about the young younger, younger people, that picture you have to take that long the cry process really seriously answer for me. you know, is it a wonderful opportunity to my re these 2 things together? franco did okay. tradition or formality. and the future for human meetings, full 100 solar panels face onto these old roof. it's perfectly angled to catch the sun's rays. but historians of skeptical, you know, here, to cover the roots with, say, the panels which are highly reflective, willing to do so. a very to score and tell them as well they, they wouldn't be kind of visible and they will affect the way one appreciates the chapel that appear in views of the reseller parent is the sky line but supports
8:39 pm
and say the benefits outweigh these a septic. and send us the panels will buy power the chapel and cover 5 percent of the cottages. entire electricity requirements. the moment is common when the balance of power, senior, acetic pleasure on sustainability and doing what we can say. we know what i mean for as a deposit, but creates and never will appear just the a livable suit uh is just for the fashion library and i'm just the dad is trying to help create the questions. but this is one of the most police have in the see in the world. the best like support takes us to find out just how the rods trades, 10 people, eco friendly catch this library. people borrow clothes. it's not
8:40 pm
crime novels. welcome to lane a hamster, dams. fashion library, it's that got to answer to tech style waste and environmental pollution caused by the clothing industry of the homes and my background isn't vintage. so i've always been involved in recycling clothes. they through vintage stores with air, but nowadays is a challenging to find something i want to use. and even when you do get often ends up is just another 2nd hand item in your closet tonight. that's a shame and that's where the idea originated play. to share clothing with each other and what's basically a march chaired wardrobe size with hundreds of dresses. pants and shirts are sorted according to label or style. the cost of borrowing them varies from $0.25 to several euro is per day. pieces can be purchase to once borrowed items have been returned there, washed before being returned to the racks. just like with a regular library,
8:41 pm
users need to register 1st. the fashion library now boasts around 6000 members. this is super simple and very flexible and nice to pick out something new without having to buy it straight off. sometimes you want to wear something extravagant and like the brake pink laser, i just try it out and it's in finality. mike, now we're at often just for special occasionally. it's fun. so we show yeah through. it's just really nice that yes, i think there should be more places like this, but as a i think so much clothing is bought and not worn, stating. so that's a great way to wear new clothes without harming the planet to she has acre in this age of fast fashion, the un says the average person by 60 percent more items of clothing than they did 15 years ago. that keeps them for just half as long every seconds the
8:42 pm
equivalent of a truck load of clothing is burned or done in landfills around the globe. many discarded textiles, wind up in african countries where they land straight on the trashes. or they're sold to secondhand clothes, overwhelming local markets. the fashion industry has a huge environmental impact. gets responsible for around a quarter of water pollution worldwide. back in amsterdam, the fashion library now has its own online shop, as well as collection and drop off points. in other judge cities, a clo, feel or by strongly believe this is the future. and then it has to be because we need to transition to other systems. we can continue to consume and producing the same way. so because the resources are depleting so that okay,
8:43 pm
so i hope to inspire others in a contact other closing brand on the back of this approach. standalone adults, i may call in and then fashion these to is can not only look good, but feel good to knowing. they're styled the sustainable, the coming back to africa. a big problem that affects many countries. he is poaching. they huge, illegal, and dangerous trade in white animals is typically very difficult to bring purchased adjustments because of the crimes often have no witnesses. key evidence is frequently destroyed, unintentionally by 1st responders. i think the in south africa has made it it's mission to tend to tide on wild life cry a this is an old to common sites on south africa's reserves. a rhino killed by poachers is cause hoping to find the object that killed him. not so from the 1st
8:44 pm
clue to help catch the cold prints about this. what requires the loss of know how an ex but so in short supply. greg simpson is taking on the pouches, butchering wildlife. ha. since most of these crimes and never prosecuted. simpson founded an academy that helps train ranges and other 1st responders to wildlife crime scenes about the importance and intricacies of criminal forensics. we realized that a lot of the people that 1st came across these scenarios were not initially trained in handling a crime scene in particular was off crime scene. and this certain skills that are really valuable in forensics is one of those skills. so we felt that was a great need and that training ranges and people that are 1st responders or even professionals, that come across to nora is way when an animal is punched in and out of a legal activity. and if they have some of the forensic skills,
8:45 pm
then it means that them, that, that investigation is more likely to end up in a prosecutor, sion, at court. at this facility, the wild life forensic academy simulates different wildlife crime scenes based on real world examples, including a smidge you're off, a killed lion. and a really know poached for his own. students are trained in forensic techniques in order to preserve and collect vital evidence which can be used by the also ortiz to move forward with court cases. in this environment, we can expose them to all these different scenarios so they can learn how to preserve and collect the forensic traces and document them correctly. so the lights are down the line, they end up with a successful prosecution in court. and that's what we've tried to create in this academy multiple scenarios, really drum and what them into then. and so when they go back into the real world and much better at tech in while that's one major challenge when it comes to wild
8:46 pm
life crimes is that they generally are in remote places. making them difficult to prove south africa's of oft scrubs and offers. covet to poachers who ambush that prey. i issue with while that comes from the on to the witnesses, there's no one else around. uh, maybe someone had a gunshot, but that's, that's what do you have. but if you actually can link someone to a con through somebody like a footprint or a cell phone or a weapon or dna, even that is really popular in court ranges, are often the ones who 1st discovered the congresses of paged animals. that initial response is critical to reduce the risk of evidence being contaminated or destroyed by window rain before the also ortiz can arrive on the scene. those details can
8:47 pm
make or break are cases chances and codes. so i think it should be for hands on the ground. feel changes as well. um, because they often the ones who do come across the scenes before we do see i do think of something valuable for oranges um i tessa. and to ask the ask and con, submit as well. in addition to collecting proof, students at the academy also take part in mock trials where they have to defend the evidence they've collected. the participants in this simulated court proceeding include format prosecute as judges and law enforcement officials. collecting evidence is only the 1st step in a long legal process. in real world cases, ensuring what they've got that can hold up in court is vital training which to, to 1st responders and those and to, to understand the role will definitely have an impact in fighting while of crime in
8:48 pm
the sense that it will lend lead to credible evidence which the prosecution can use in proving the elements of the offense against the public practice. poaching is a $1000000000.00 business in asia, one key low of ryan and holding cells for tens of thousands of us dollars. the financial incentive is huge, rhinos elephants, rad reptiles and secular pumps will pay the price for consumer trends. the loss of life has profound impacts on the environment. these large, mega format, like elephants and suppose they have an important role to play in an ecosystem. as prompt, if is as large animals, they have an important role in shaping the environments and the habitats around them. they have a role in the disposal, nutrients, cycling, and by removing these animals. and it's can lead to by diversity loss and changes and confirmations of whole landscapes. and in addition, it's kind of also need to uninstall that impacts the full don't full,
8:49 pm
increasing human while that's conflicts and having for the impact something other hold tight feature in some ecosystem. in 2022 south africa last 448 rhino to poaching. but they will also over a 100 and so to you. arrests and the number of convictions including one that resulted in the poachers being sentenced to 60 years in prison. as wild life crimes continue training and dealing with them will become increasingly important to ensure that the countries bio diversity is protected. they are the words toilets. the land dwelling stretches, and i think they also look rather lovely to ross. sadly, there are fewer and fewer of them because it going to rob. so being pushed india drew's for the meats full for the codes. and the reasons for pushing things. now some people believe in the feelings paws of the old guns. let's
8:50 pm
take a look at a consulting see if kenya, that is especially dedicated to the protection of xerox. from the outside. this looks like a brucell catcher. but these game keep is one to transport. this drew off to safe a ground on the mainland rising bullshit levels. unlike the rainbow, attend a section of the draft conservation area into a 9. and so in 2021, the router wildlife conservancy managed to relocate 7 stranded animals, all of them endangered rules, child's drugs, distinguishable by the white low legs. it was over a decade ago. that's a conservancy in the local community. first joint forces to create a century for giraffes. but a few years ago, money to read the spaces, it became clear that those stranded on the nearly imaged island was suffering badly . at the island this the unlooked of telling us number one uh,
8:51 pm
the draft said that going to send the truck the by the 5th. second, there was a list footage that there was uh, a truck like peyton liquid strangled the young ones and also the crocodile. so comparing the island on the mainland, we saw that uh the telling us i'm more united on letting me know roads towards drugs so mainly found in savannah's like here in the ringo region in kenya and neighboring uganda. only about 1400 can still be found today. the numbers have been greatly reduced, mainly due to poaching. but with the involvement of the community, the situation is improving helped by a 17 square columbus, a drop century established within the root co conservancy. of the, the and an animals watched over by ranges and members of the tweak of lindsey or to
8:52 pm
rock god initiative robots, buddy you is one of them having grown up here. he knows a lot about the giraffes. i kinda know what you and you're not from the when we were children. and i knew what we were told that the roads college or read originated from the ringo and i from the funding and was called the ringo duran. it's not, it's me. it was said to be very sweet, young, black and that's good. and i'm, and the bone, you know, can be a very special type of fat that people used for medicinal purposes. one of the common dollars today would match as most to him, is that the animals can strive and reproduce. the monitoring team regularly checks a numbers and checks out for injuries. at the moment, there are 14 rough childs drove off in the route kind of area. the initiative, not any benefits the giraffes, but also the people who live here. the old thomas and the zip codes. these pesto communities have a long history of conflict of animals and grazing them. would be
8:53 pm
know a piece around the vehicle, have you at a to know until when the 2 held us from the 2 communities up down the see the we need to do a way life consistency. we need to mean to do uh adults to get off. so it must be known as the bilingual did ralph as a symbol of unity in the stuff network, once a visual so that it can bring the 2 communities together. but to do this, they needed both land and 2 rocks which had disappeared from the rainbow. each community contributed land on the conservancy brought in h wolf child's drops from another nature was of or meanwhile, community members are also benefiting. says you people have found jobs as ranges. old, you're off guards like rutledge putting the communities also receive a portion of the conservancy is income, which they mainly use to pay children in school fees. the kids have also developed
8:54 pm
a respect for the animals not the telling the giraffes are good because they helping generate revenue from tourism. but we did the best of funding and they also fertilize the soil at the window in the welcome john. the project is supported by international in g o's and is now well accepted by both communities to gal. i mean, we can now talk about how to protect the animal and the thought. so yeah, i mean how we can develop guidelines to protect them. but in the past, due is what that process and what we can do and create new employment opportunities . and what new things we can introduce so that we can continue to grow. and so we are really benefited since bringing these animals here. the develops have settled in well at the century. the numbers have nearly doubled in the past decade from 8 to 14,
