my name is some way to ship. i'm assuming, re shaving history. our documentary stops april 6th, and d, w. the clean energy and cutting with a 2 big challenges facing us today. luckily, we don't need to look far to find some pretty smart solutions. so welcome to eco, africa. i and some drug of homes that we know of. you joining do from complex, right? yes. in uganda. a. thank to sandra. yes. sometimes it, since the difficult to fix all the problems facing the environment. what we want to show you how every little bits of progress helps. i am chris gloves coming to you

from lagos, nigeria, i'm, here's what we've got for u. haul nigeria is push it back against thing to use las they'd the valuable work offices is inside. first of the spanish mediterranean coast. and how a 19 year old in bed are as bringing lights, there's village in malawi, the fall off for us to report the display of bikes. yeah. elijah area and the vibrant mega city of lake ghost, which has a huge plastic waste problem. it's so bad, the state government has bends, plastic items that they use just once, as through the way many people of celebrate that the decision was that. so we'll see the reaction of the shows. oh, hard. it's gotta be to change. always legally is literally drowning in

trach discarded plastic packaging is everywhere. the cities, lots of ways in particular, have become a dumping ground for more than a $113000.00 tons of garbage. each year. the biggest states environments ministry has not bad. single use plastic upholstery, but it's not that easy. it's wrapped up with many people's livelihoods because customers just like us, that's what people say me so. so what would it be doing about the project? so people, why would they be doing i can't tell you if i'm happy or sad about the the take away styrofoam packing is cheaper than reasonable plastic rocky awards. so many customers choose to get their food and the styrofoam that because of the cheap i don't know how the government will go about implementing this van because it's not our fault. environmental research out to me to

a passive by move knows how damage in the past it can be. she says the government has made the right move, even if some will finally talk to with that, we're talking about like the informal 6 or recycling companies that the painful and collections of fed for tools and all of that this was fixing. well then it is pros and cons. we are looking at the long term environmental sustainability on effect funding. these implementing the ban once be easy, many businesses are simply not ready. they'll lead time to before their production process. but active is the last same way joe believes it can be done. we have the warranty. it's all plastic. there was was a 9 do. yeah, it's all plastic. are we still lived? is very much possible. well, i understand the convenience. the company is of plastic is quite blinded. well, i would like to say this clumsiness, convenience of the cost of our lives,

of the future is too expensive. they got many street vendors. we also welcome to left garbage on the street, but they don't know what they can use in place of plastic packages. to me think of lots do it before i make a use or since is no good because it's always love with us. but the cost to give us the chance to advise so is that we value the desk if you can. those be given the make assessment will do for you, said landlord, hold on to canada, whether biodegradable or reusable, packaging the many options out. they have to help with close to we have the plastic waste invades there are as some of those or policies. i've been around for a very long time with business that so people in southwest the large area helping to bring back up for additional food. talk to that the school due to not jerome was

in abundance of the civil thoughts to have faced boosting properties. please his little religious ceremony, but you would call it a formal from there to watch. it is a publicity event for private protection organized by, on a digging into your the wants people to do these large, highly profitable leads instead of plastic and my that is the way it is related to biodiversity. i see strategy projects, many of the posts up into kinds. elaine cbs, them, i did the launch, the planned to nor plastic project in 2015 enough to witnessing how single use plastic folder that's want in the southwest. and they do, you know, you know, it's a used to encourage communities to replace plastic wrapping with the robust bloss leaves of the cut on fat or miracles. fruit plant, also known by its letting them tomato coal cause the nearly or wait for in the from

us import. i'd gotten to have religious with got them to get up. i would say don't want to plan to not come out to because i nearly dimensional and thousands of i'm going to need to practice is to ensure that the list of web long distance was because of i'm not doing that well, no choice to do my choice. on the far beautiful foot plans i'm mainly cultivated by women in ca, call plantations as a form of federal forestry plants of thrive into soil beneath the trees and the leaves going to be harvested every 3 months or in the mall. i manually is taking part in the trust initiative together with other women. she's learning how to properly rep food here in the world in the state office. and she started 2 weeks ago today. she and her colleagues up preparing being kicks as it is. yeah, so cool. that's the reason why i'm learning how to rep being like with leave is to understand the technique of how to read and leave the but yeah,

with this i can start filling wrapped food in order to earn an income. what i want, i don't know, so supporting the foot long sleeves from the from to local markets can be quite a challenge to buy as both private individuals and food vendors. we use them as rugs a bunch of 10 to 12 leaves kind of close upwards of 290 or they prevail into for around 12 funeral sense. but so i still fuzz, by as micro credit financing to encourage pickup image area. straightforward is often cooked and dropped in plastic box, but customized overwhelmingly agreed that the food tests a bit wrapped in the leaves. and then of course, there are the huge environmental advantages. according to the you and the jury produces around 2500000 tons of plastic every year, making it the 9th was plastic polluter in the wat presently waste problems with the environment,

then leave on these or is about degree table. that's a significant easily be decompose. so it's cool. this is seth from the viral made on like i'm and for the a mice poor adult like 9 loan by plastic. that's the india environment for a number of years. since then i didn't government to close the bond on a single use plastics in january 2020 full. the reason not the good reason to use the leads, it is a chance to turn back the clock and return to a lease with a long tradition here. where you say, if i thought you the miracle plant lease is very important here in southwest interior. because of its health benefit, which it well yeah. so you will need to go using the lease the route. so watch has been around since time in the morning. i've done right on the medical experts have also told us that using testing to that comes with poker. goodness,

and to can somebody say palma, on guess i'll call yet all back kind of stuff. the reason that these healthy sustainable resource can be useful more than just dropping fluids with needs in met, seen that kind of fabricate, seduce me into sleep. i mean to call so that's instead of using the slits, which is a plastic plastic needs a plastic kind of a completes to eat you happy without nancy a bit tell of shown to use or leave. well needs and shape for you to eat. the hip hop to raise awareness of the benefits of these natural substitutes and make a key contribution to with using plastic waste. mold in cities done just suffer from waste problems. how's the shortages are a big problem to rain?

so rising on space of sites. fortunately, there are many ideas been developed to solve some of these issues. a salt slide crease in some parts of the water. the tiny house is becoming a trend as the names such as they of small one room dwellings that can be billed quickly and easily. but we wanted to build a they also climate friendly, a big trip for a small house, a tiny house. it's being set up in honda, the gemini, in the backyard of an apartment building, owned by the municipal housing association. it was reduced in estonia and costs $10000.00 euros to transport. so for 4 of them have been set up here, costing a 2000 euros each blanket. daniel vice slips one of them on the 5th because i'd have to if i actually feel more comfortable in smaller space, it was. but the problem was i'm more of a city person. and until now there were no projects like this in the city. we

didn't know stuff got of the washing machine is suitably tiny, with just the 2 square meters of space. every centimeter accounts, it's minimalism down to a fine art. and yet a 150 people apply to live here, daniel, vice to give a powerpoint presentation before gaining approval. housing is good in many parts of germany, in the post people on a decent income could afford single family homes like bees. but now they're in short supply and prices that sold the comp and to move to the on his partner indiana ranges. this is provided a business opportunity. they build tiny houses when they're finished, they drive them down the old of on to customers. tiny house, estates, us bringing up all the gemini pulls to the indiana range is also live in one of these communities. but for the most part,

local authorities only allow tiny homes on comp sites. that's because many town councils are reluctant to recognize this new type of construction. that's a house phone is of tiny homes. it's hard to understand. many of the setup wants to be given equal rights. mental health like this would fit anywhere. what does it matter if it's on wheels or not? do we actually build them with and without we'll just, you know, i mean, why do we insist on the strict rules that stipulate houses in the village have to have red roofs or green roofs or whatever. and it's nonsense stuff, it's pretty good. tiny house is really the plus is more. many, also a theme, tiny homes are more friendly, but that's only partially true. it's certainly the case. the tiny homes are often built of wood for managed forest, which is the full sustainable. and they have a smaller carbon footprint. then buildings made of countries producing just one ton

of cement alone and met some and 600 kilos, a c o 2. but on the other hand, tiny homes are less energy efficient. even though only a small roommate seating that room has a component to the knowledge of yours outside was what heat can escape in 2020 team. more than 1000000 refugees came to gemini spots. the increased the pressure on the housing market and that into is pushing up orders for the tiny homes. here in northern germany. tiny house is already being used for ukrainian refugees. we meet one family, he moved in here last year. jada possession, considered as a self lucky, even though there are 4 of them living in this brand new tiny home. there's one bedroom for a young son and sister wendell. another 5 south unpack husband,

the municipality paid 90000 euros for it. yeah, and a plastic pots and leave a small farm and ukraine. the whole family then moved to germany. the new home is small, but nice and young. a plastic says she can imagine living here with family for quite a while. as we know, a lot of flooded is getting quotes it bought by how much exactly, and how quickly a citizen scientist is wayne, is using his function to make a key contribution to existing knowledge. probably not even a whole b. how's the cost to make a difference? let's take a look. it's just after dawn, but jose pasquals is a man on a mission. he's heading out to see the 73 year old collects weather data on

land and in the water. i was upset about eunice noticed that the moment i use these special through monitors that you can lower into the c k. uh, but kinda in the process, you have to around 5 minutes of one glass. they flip over to spend display of the temperature in the deep by now get on the amount of time to elect them. but i do like a, in this temperature for the past fall knows all about the sea and how to measure it for over half a century. the topography for and son of a fisher has pursued his hobby of the coast of less 13 in northeastern spring weather permitting. he goes to see twice a week to document water temperatures in the mediterranean is maybe the receipts. it's my light, it's got my place. it's almost like a drug, a miracle here that ever since i was little, it's through while i heat,

i mean the desktop mainly because data like this didn't exist when i was 15 or 20 years old and no, no idea that those they start having reached his 1st, measuring point posts up lowers one of his devices. it shows that at a depth of 30 meters, the water temperature is close to 16 degrees celsius. pascal says the sea surface has warmed by full degrees since he began taking measurements. is pretty cool, but the for the must continue mode. it's worrying the scale because rising temperatures caused the water to expand and with that, leaving the sea level to rise equal to the lovely pick those key i saw most no time . we can see this on the beach and i to spend the money layer, the half a meter narrower ingle. i verify that the beach here has shrunk by 15 meters since 1993. did say that those was made out to go along with the temperature pascal measures the water, salt content,

which has to them for providing vital info that fishermen like a sophomore you have come to rely on the alarm. we at that by star work as closely connected to this data. and one thing if we know a bit more about at all like he does, we'd be better fishers for sure. who am i as they walk in and said he, i want them to quote, as difficult as i use piteous piano support at this deal. there are species of fish that can cope with the rising temperatures by myself. sort of the others that are used to warmer water, you know, now come up nor that from more southern areas like a style. and of course, the morales posts up task well meticulously notes, the coordinates and measurements. then at the local tourist info office, he transfers the data to a website used by scientists worldwide. the zillow last time you don't see it, but i'm still on my data in an american trade magazine and compare them to their own findings. that of that they see in the hour they said now they know their satellite instruments are working correctly. so tele,

this with you and then correct. i mean pasquals collection of years of data has also made an impression in barcelona. at the institute of maureen sciences, researchers pro how climate change effects plants and how to balance the full set past qual has no children, but hopes to find someone to carry on his legacy. still, he plans to keep going out to sea and conducting his measurements, for as long as he can from spain, we had cells tomorrow, co way human induced climate change is already affecting the countries. a good call to inform us that not only need to adopt how the water and how this puts the, of placing wise and costs for the fuel they use to do it. fortunately that increasing the able to turn to another abundant energy result the sun. so low

paul is gaining ground into agricultural sector. as most of the res that'd be and sets up the cover on site energy needs the vacation ponds. and we'll come from, i'm at the less, as fills have been pod by the sun for 5 years now. used to rely on pertain gas. if also feel you guys have to buy in the city and you had, she thought we were determined to stop contributing to the damage being inflicted on our environment. and what is what we decided to switch to solar power as a clean or what didn't go friendly alternative or motivated to any? it's a good investments occasion and then it's more profitable in terms of business and better for our machinery. this phone is located in can you try and retrieve genuine not isn't possible roco for the past 10 years with an olive trees have mainly been going into sunday saw here which can only be done using trip irrigation. the know what had the,

what we mixed in organic substance about the sand and the kind of how to, how can we put it into these holes. and you don't have that code because all these hoses function is just a tribute or heavy heading. and what was the heading of what was the ad heavy and the because to a middle even and to keep the whole says from gets in, blocks out of several 1000 euros are invested in an elaborate filter system. the one that is pumped out of the catch space and is filtered before being spent through pipes to the fields. you will see i'm not a one do you the more he moves. if the filters need regular checks and maintenance, just because they are vital to process or something in a motor cars and the document, they're especially important for what's known as a localized irrigation, which requires water that's free. if any sort of impurities paint is 70 soul upon is required on investment walls, approximately 80000 euros, but the system meets all the funds, electricity needs companies like tech, my rock, i've had their work cut out in recent years. i've technician installation

technicians, making regular maintenance checks and looking at them so they didn't have level of care after turning on the problems well from the water immediately flows into the tank. and what about such as now full about the tumor, which is connected to filters, channels the water to be used for ever getting the men because she had her husband came, she did extinction. so even though renewables are ready subsidized by the government, more, more from us, switching to solar upon the last few years alone under that $10000.00 solar systems have been installed, a model for spawns tech. my rock is benefiting from vase trend to offer solar panels with different ratings depending on how much electricity is needed. use mostly for vacation to, to purchase on mac bio for to life as well as a says green energy is, was the investment. when in suddenly found the east, instead of investing in gas upgraded machine was,

which are expensive and do that. we can opt for renewable energy that tells you and it's actually very profitable. yeah, no, it's a cuts going because within, sorry, here's what i can know. i keep the money paid out on the equipment, not any of you. and then after that, i'm making a profit was actually was the end of the call. we'll get some credit card. i need a new one. so from us like i'm at the legs a can kill 2 birds with one stone is the n more, while also taking better care of the environment. such a large scale full apollo requires a lot of investment, which is slowing installations in many countries. and some places, since they don't still have access to any sort of electricity at all. well, as one young getting a veto in malawi is proven with efforts and the modulation plus a lot of determination. we can make a big difference to our local community and it can be sustainable to

only 12 percent of the population in malawi, have access to electricity. but that's changing in some places, at least like here in the jump jingle. things to this ingenious young inventor. understand, due to has harnessed the laws of thermodynamics that you 1st observed in the world around him, gun rambles, the garden. i had to do some investigating what am i to understand the whole process? i do come i z z, a liter i collected with stones that i used to make them actually wasn't able to do with the system, right. what do i do? system work it in that wise. the 19 year old is illuminating homes, one by one, and transforming is home village in rural central. i'm allowing the technology is enabling residents to make more of the hours of darkness for work, study, or leisure technology specialists in the area are now calling for

a special policies to support innovators like him. so at this point, so you did try to keep it as computer to find the rules and even defined as the funding mechanisms. ernest and bruce electricity generation project is under evaluation by them allowing energy regulatory authority. the body says the project has to adhere to. ready the guidelines sometimes the answers are on our own doorstep. thanks for coming along today to take out a co op or go online for most simulating reports and ideas. i am chris 11th and illegals nigeria by piece and see you next time. and st. cute. all of you for joining us. we'll be back next week with more insights on each direction. i am sandra co homes that we nobody else signing go from complex, right to in uganda,

norway is still way more electric cars per capita is in the us. that's really more than 80 percent of all calls sold in no way in 2023. we're not sure. how does a country becoming the electric call and what does this have to do in 30 minutes? oh d w no simple way to substitute direct to oxford and my dear travels along with him as a back to
