4:31 am

a real step to an email ability and much more joselyn 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 looks like an offer. they give me i to know because i didn't put any down payment. it just gives me. but i verify everything that's about 32 years per month. joseph kemp of bodies, motorcycle taxi runs on solar powered battery. it's a real novelty in uganda to the idea to sell e motorcycles on a pay as you go basis came from the startup them boat. it imports inexpensive electric motorcycles from china. the company charges the factories in its workshop . if own of uganda is gasoline powered for the cyclic were replaced by electric one
4:33 am
. it would save about $100000000.00 tons of c o 2 every year. but they are still around 600000, gets the, our motorcycles in the country. the startup zango says, this can't be the future. and you've done the, we're importing the 1200s petro motorcycles every month to serve the market. and this should be electric, but to make it electric we have to invest only not only in purchasing the bikes, but also the battery in charging infrastructure. the transition would cost millions of heroes over several years. so far, the only government support for electric vehicles has beach 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
4:34 am
liked the bikes. it saves the money, cost less than a fuel bike. the operate is we're just missing the money to invest and it's difficult to raise as a start up in a relatively new is 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 in 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 know, the w. w. f and the uganda also complaints over lack of funds on this way about the truck, additional investments enough for them buy it. that's what governments buy or part
4:35 am
of the 6 the companies in the global with because then scroll under different health when this settings of climate effects. in mid this past, we did the truck, those kind of investment age was only at the latest climate summit that the fund 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 startup assembled. you can see that these move funding that came through, especially for the african countries. i know right now to bunk has been accredited by the same climate front 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,
4:36 am
even if it's still pods to find charging stations where she can exchange her empty back to you for full. the places you go to a new check on your location, then a famous substitution may be your photo in the 10 somewhere general. but you cannot find this edition isn't. it will be attending, we've got new, that'd be up to the village. the name of this, of the village, but so far the suspicions i noted to extended the 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 motorcycle. 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 don't like lives in existing is come on is so what's most simply no pressure, no vibrations, and it doesn't produce the environment. drive isn't. passengers may not always be
4:37 am
aware of it, but the electric motorcycles helping us to but time once a great idea on this, you pulled 6 us to cambridge in the okay, web hosting solar panos when i use storage building is causing heated debates. 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 wick, but what's really happening here is a fundamental innovation, a top old roles. the famous king's college chapel in cambridge is getting soda panels. the chapel is more than 500 years old. much of the structure is still
4:38 am
original, but the lighting is electric, real tunnels, a largely ornamental the some of the panels will soon supply the necessary electricity for the chapel dean along the chew solution. and when you begin to think about the young younger, younger people, the future, you have to take the car and the cry process really serious me answer for me. you know, is it a wonderful opportunity to my ravings change things together? good looking, tradition, or formality. and the future for humans needs full 100 solar panels face onto these old reeves. it's perfectly angled to catch the sun's rays, but historians, a 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 and 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 rates that appear induced the sky line. but
4:39 am
supports and say the benefits outweigh these, etc. it concerns us. the panels will buy power at the chapel and cover 5 percent of the college. his entire electricity requirements, the most common one is the balance of power. senior, acetic pleasure, and sustainability. and doing what we can see not only for the past but creates and never will future the is a livable suit uh, is just for the fashion library and i'm the dad is trying to help create the function business as well as the bose policing industries in the world, the best next support takes us to find out just how the rod trades can people, eco friendly test this library,
4:40 am
people borrow clothes. it's not crime novels. welcome to lane a hamster, dams, fashion library. it's got to answer to tech style waste and environmental pollution caused by the clothing industry of the homes. my background is in vintage. so i've always been involved in recycling clothes. they threw vintage stores with air, but nowadays it's a challenging to find something you want to use. and even when you do it 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 of shared wardrobe size make 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,
4:41 am
users need to register 1st. the fashion library now boasts around 6000 members. it's just super simple and very flexible and nice to pick out something new without having to buy it straight off for what is it sometimes you want to wear something extravagant and like the brake pink laser, i just try it out and it's in canada. you might not, 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 at the end 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
4:42 am
equivalent of a truck load of clothing is burned or done in landfills around the glow. many discarded textiles, wind up in african countries where they land straight on the trashes. or they're sold as 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 and other dodge 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 system days and then we can continue to consume producing the same way. so because the resources are depleting this valuable field
4:43 am
and we hope to inspire others is a concept other closing brand where they don't actually this approach. adults. i'm a cone and then fashion east as 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. the huge, illegal and dangerous trade in white animals is typically very difficult to bring purchased adjustments because the crimes often have no witnesses. key evidence is frequently destroyed, unintentionally by 1st responders. i think the in south africa is maybe it's mission to tend to tide on wildlife cry. this. this is an old to common sites on south africa's reserves. a rhino kills by poachers is called hoping
4:44 am
to find the object that killed him. so from the 1st clue to help catch the cold print about this, what requires the loss of know how and 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 found it an economy 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. and particularly a wildlife 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 and are as way when an animal is punched in and out of a legal activity. and if they have some of forensic skills,
4:45 am
then it means that them, then, that investigation is more likely to end up in a prosecution at court. at this facility, the wildlife forensic academy simulates different wildlife crime scenes based on real world examples, including a snag 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 a vital evidence which can be used by the authorities 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 that mean to learn. and so when they go back into the real world and much better at texting while that's one major challenge when it comes to
4:46 am
wild life crimes, is it they generally a cut in remote places, making them difficult to prove south africa's of aust scrubs and offers covered to poachers who ambush that prey, issue with water that com is often they aren't any witnesses. there's no one else around. uh maybe someone had a gunshot that that's, that's what do you have. but if you actually can link someone to kind through something like a footprint or a cell phone or a weapon or dna, even that is really positing court ranges are often the ones who 1st discussed with 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 os ortiz can arrive on the scene. those details can make or break are cases chances and
4:47 am
codes. 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 to attend and to ask the ask and consummate 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 former prosecutors, 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 did you understand the role it will definitely have an impact in fighting while of crime,
4:48 am
in the sense that it will lend lead to credible evidence which the prosecution can use improving 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, ret tiles and secular pumps will pay the price for consumer trends. the loss of life has profound impacts on the environment. these large megaphone a like elephant. suppose they have a really important role to play in an ecosystem. as prompt spaces, 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 transformations of whole landscapes or in addition, it's kind of also mean to uninstall the impacts full on full,
4:49 am
increasing human was conflicts and having for the impact something other hold tight c j as in eco system in 2022 south africa. last $448.00 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 in dealing with them will become increasingly important to ensure that the countries bio diversity is protected. they are the words toilets. the land dwellings stretches, and i think they also look rather lovely to ross. sadly, there are fewer and fewer of them because it went to rob sabine, post india drew's for the meats full for the codes. and the main reasons for pushing to know some people believe in the ceiling cause of your
4:50 am
old guns. let's take a look at a consulting, see a kenya that is especially dedicated to the protection of xerox from the outside. this looks like a bruce or cap to but these game keep is one to transport. this drew off to safe a ground on the mainland. rising boys who levels unlike the ring go tend a section of the draft conservation area into a 9. and so in 2021, the root canal lot conservancy managed to relocate 7 stranded animals, all of them endangered rules, child's drugs distinguishable by the wide lower legs. it was over a decade ago that the conservancy and the local community 1st joint forces to create a century photographs. 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
4:51 am
one of the draft and the constant attack the by the 5th. second, there was the list footage that there was a talk by phone that could strangle the young ones and also the crocodile. so comparing the island and the mainland, we saw that the, the telling is i'm more united on letting me know roads towards drops. i mainly found in savannah like here in the ringo region in kenya and neighboring uganda. only about 1400 can still be found today. of 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. the and an animals are watched over by ranges and members of the tweak of lindsey or to rock
4:52 am
god initiative robots. but to you is one of them having grown up here, he knows a lot about the giraffes. uh, click on it and uh, we can do that from the when we were children. and then what we are told that the roads college are red, originated from the ring, the funding and was called the ringo duran is let's meet was said to be very sweet, young black and let's get in. and the bone, y'all can be a very special type of fat that people used for medicinal purposes. one of the common dollars. today, what matches most to him is that the animals can strive and reproduce. the monitoring team regularly checks the numbers and checks out for injuries. at the moment, they are 14 rough childs drove off in the recovery area. the initiative, not any benefits the giraffes, but also the people who live here. the old thomas, i'm the co code. these pistol communities have a long history of conflict of animals and grazing them. its been
4:53 am
know a piece around the vehicle headed right now until when the 2 held us from the 2 communities up down, the see that we need to do a way life consistency. we need to re introduce adults to get off. so it must be known as a bilingual draft as a symbol of unity in the stuff network integration. so that you can bring the 2 communities together. but to do this, they needed both land and 2 rocks which had disappeared from the ringo. each community contributed land and the conservancy brought in h. wolf childs drops from another nature was us. meanwhile, community members are also beneficial, especially people have found jobs as ranges, odor off guards like rubbish, petty. the communities also receive a portion of the conservancy is income, which they mainly use to pay children school fees. the kids have also developed
4:54 am
a respect for the animals not the telling the giraffes are good because they helped me generate revenue from torres of what were the best of funding. and they also fertilize the soil and then doing the internet that was the local. i'm john the project is supported by international in g o's and is now well accepted by both communities to own 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 year as well. 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 you've got to know that we have really benefited since bringing these animals here. the drugs have settled in, well, at the century, the numbers have nearly doubled in the past decade from 8 to 14. and they were
