3:30 pm
leeway forward may be through compensation projects such as reforestation. what are your thoughts on this topic? the the offline is just changing that for the what? rising global temperatures and more and more extreme weather events are making frequent headlines. hello and welcome. i'm sorry, you've got the body and you are watching. as on ecosystem scenes, we not only need to amplify out efforts to save them, but we also need to adapt our lives and our livelihoods to ensure that we can keep up with the change and size. let's start with the core, the lights,
3:31 pm
desert of the agriculture. yeah. must already be hard. one can assume what adding to the difficulties of the psalm us is an emerging what the crisis 90 percent of education in this a modeling region relies on lation. what does the melting of ice losses resulting in what those cassidy is also to being funded by the local initiative is combining an edge or traditional method with a deal with technology to come back to this problem. finally, it's that's on the mid and his wife. now have about an hour to divert the suing water onto the field. the growing bees. coaxing something out of the soil. yeah, it's becoming harder with each boston. yeah. yeah. we've been farming for the past 70 years, but now it's becoming very difficult for me is i've got and used to be very good. the water was good. there was snow and the weather was good trailer,
3:32 pm
but we had to timely how the, how about how much is the bottle built? they're missing back to a sub for then did, but to pass out of the smells unlimited water available has to be shared equally with the other residents of thought hit. the village is located in the dock region in india far north. the cool desert area covers more than 9000000 hectares. it's 4000 meters above sea level and home to do more than 200000 people. most of them live from funding. for thousands of you is d. c. a water was used to irrigate the fields, but with the temperatures rising due to human induced climate change. the glitzy is i shrinking life for the form of this stuff. i do agree, i agree with you about the visual becomes very difficult to find here in the next few years because of what to skiff along the drama. this year. the weather is bad and the water never comes on the time either. to get them bunny near yeah. studio
3:33 pm
group of engineers has come to check things out from a local and you post 2nd morning. that aims to help people in the dock been the sustainable future to ensure the small mountain stream from the village has enough water and some of the engineers have created an ice mound shape like a super, a traditional dis shine a small artificial dcea it stools the water the flows down from the mountains during winter for use in the summer months, or because the purpose is new, the through both finding is done only in summer to the steps under water is needed to during the winter, water is wasted risk with the it flows into the end of the river and then into boxed on into the ocean and other in order to save that water, we made an artificial and lazy. i think you said that it had been out there. this do puzzle based on a wooden frame in winter, underground pipes feed the limited water from the mountain to the right place due
3:34 pm
to the difference and pressure and the water shoots upwards. the window is minus 20 degrees celsius, so the water freezes as it falls, forming a cooling a few 100 kilometers for the on is the village of licksey. he ought to be blow, struggling. the aerial gets just 50 millimeters of rain and summer. but some things have changed to date gloves on young to and is making soup with dried spinning. she needs, she and a has been viewed as finished themselves. in the past, they only had potatoes stubs in june. at the menu we grew up, brings you all to lease an inch, and that was and dry them for the winter. so just so unlike in the boston, now march that feels by leaving plant waist on the beds, the soil can then bit to absolve what leaves rainwater. there is and it no longer evaporates immediately. the loan is from dignity ok. she's
3:35 pm
a scientist that an agriculture was research institute based on the city of li. she's helping people here adapt to the changing climate. get all the news on using them for she surely take a minute. we're trying to introduce the find the new technology and some new technology, simple. who go to save, we lost it. and when you meet the farmers face to face, you can see that they've started changing how they do things are in the nearby village of key sites. she's trying to help local women create a sustainable livelihood for themselves, while also adapting to the changing conditions. so she arranged for green houses to be built. one is now used by up to 16 families solar panels provide the necessary power. it's all financed by a state subsidy program. we bought this. we go a vegetable hill collection. so all the vegetables needs is an invalid. i'm looking
3:36 pm
up. that means we don't need to buy parties from the market, but just very far away from the birthday. the women alone, the agricultural know how in workshops, treatments, young jin initially use public funds to finance the seeds for new crops. jumped on that odd. you do everything for those you. so how does i don't how to do to a 5000 meters? we grew up my friends, 12 shrubberies, watermelon, and tomato, the guy. we were able to grow mushrooms when it was minus 17 degrees celsius outside mushroom, because no one can say today that nothing grows you up going able to jump on me, which and it's been made possible by the introduction of technology of the changing climate was a huge challenge for the people of the doc. they would only be able to stay here if they can grow enough food to live in the homeland high up in the court, mountains of the himalayas.
3:37 pm
the not just for form of foreigners are crucial for our equal system as well. and yet india has lost over 2300000 hectares of 3 kava since 2000. but it isn't just india. we take a look at the woods of germany, which are also is rapidly declining. but this isn't necessarily bad use. big parts of germany as far as this used to look like this. but now they look like this in just a couple of years. this decades old forest has become unrecognizable. the same thing is happening in many parts of germany, europe and north america. but this isn't too typical, the planet is dying story. this could actually be good news, but to understand why, let's backtrack a little bit, maybe more than a little bit to the end of a world war to a lot of the world is in ruins and needs to be rebuilt. the allied forces,
3:38 pm
understandably, you want reparations from germany, but it's broke. so they agree that the country will pay partly in materials, for example, timber, lots of timber, according to some estimates equivalent to 10 percent of the countries for us. so now for us does need to replant big areas asap to rebuild germany itself. and which tree did they choose? mostly the spruce, which looking back was maybe not the best decision. but at that time, it seems like a good idea to find out why we're driving to, to ring you in the center of germany to meet funding for us to to is this moving serious decisions. and it's fast growing hot, it regularly deliver itself rate high quality where they can easily be processed at sawmills into furniture flooring. it's used quite widely. as it is english, they have items and spa. that's why it's also
3:39 pm
a very lucrative treat german forest as planted vast areas with them in straight rows that make it easy to get in. and harvest spruce is of the most common tree in germany and make up over a quarter of all forests. but that is changing rapidly because of what made this one a culture so profitable is also what made it so vulnerable. forest around the world, the suffering from more intense and frequent droughts, wild fires, and storms, weakening, entire ecosystems, and germany is no exception. the longest time is due to climate change mean, the forests are too dry, and the trees 1st, especially spruce street, they comparatively need a lot of water, but the root system is quite shallow. so they comp access reservoirs deep down. while that's not the best news for the trees all for humans, and there is one little creature that loves what's happening right now. into the
3:40 pm
box. this tiny little insect has been munching its way through many of germany's in europe as far as the box. people of course, loves the box. it boils holes into the tree and then release his pheromones to draw a mate inside there they reproduce. emily eggs, a healthy tree usually produces resident to fill up the holes and to protect itself from the beatles. but assess the weak trees cannot. that's why the bulk beetle is having a feast. i don't think john bodies sedation like years ago, this area was holy forest. and dyslexia, if we're standing here, no one's the last part of this area was infested in doing this. the or that area could also be interested in a matter of i, but the beatles eat away lias transport, nutrients and water. this bruce is and die of thirst, malnutrition, the beetle is the least spreading across europe and the halter it gets, the more beetles will breed. what a full scale it infestation looks like. can be seen in bach beetle central,
3:41 pm
which is the hops. national park in the middle of germany, where we're headed here about 90 percent of all spruce is opted. the bach people has come seeking and gone, leaving behind the region. that is quite frankly shocking to look at. we're meeting the whole on peach, the head of the hots national park. the hots region is hit so hard because it had a very big concentration of spaces. but for peach and many others, this post apocalyptic looking scenario isn't a disaster. quite the opposite. for him, the bulk beetle isn't the villain. it's actually a blessing in disguise. the 5 years the other question is what's happening later. but what's happening is that the old spruce trees are gone and the forest and a long series comic. when you see what kind of strength, how much life areas, and it's beautiful, it's great and truly exciting here. rush,
3:42 pm
but the ball comes down to 6 and the forest as a safety barrier so that the beetle will have a heart of time spreading into neighboring forest. but apart from that, the national park decided to let nature be nature and did not fight to the box. and nature is indeed doing its thing. different areas of the national park are treated differently. some pod square trees are springing up on their own. a list of their own devices like this area that died off about 6 years ago. some parts need a little bit of help, meaning formerly native species that were displaced by this person on the cultures of being planted. but that's just one part of the story. the national park is it protected area that cannot be used to produce tinder anymore, but only around 3 percent of little forest in germany is protected. the rest is governed by public or private forest, as, for example, to produce timber. and we'll probably be using more of it since would, can be a very sustainable and renewable building. material managed and grown by forest as
3:43 pm
like back in so ring. yeah. they need to take a different approach to the bulk b to the trees are checked for interest ation regularly. once and interest stations found the trees, i'm ok then they are top down and removed as soon as possible to hold the spread of the beetle. leaving behind vast areas of prematurely felled trees to prevent something like this from happening again, the approach here is to not only bet on one tree, but on a variety of trees. by auction, it's like with a sophomore, you're diversifying your portfolio to minimize risk. that's what we're trying to do with the mix for as to why it? oh, this is me cool fish. be a scientist trying to identify the forest of the future. here are some of the candidates. first, audio, g, beach, oak, and sycamore trees are adapted to low elevations. they can survive with less water
3:44 pm
because they root systems are deeper. seconds of and you come out as like the douglas, the native to north america. douglas, for us can also handle more heat and droughts visa currently seen as good candidates. but if we continue to heat up the planet, we will need to mix in some wild cods to find out which ones may be suitable. this . the ring in forestry has been conducting and now of a 10 year old experiment in the driest region of the forest was this often to show it's more or less because in a mixed forest, to have to deal with various species of trees or supporting each have different risks and costs, so it's price here all the way through to the marketing of the woods or other products. locsin, when quotes with the home phone. but from our point of view, it's more is that it's to because it reduces the red and just go over it with your you might have more expensive, smaller yield and budget for the forest owner. it carries less risk, vertigo, easy, cool, hosted thoughts faces, plain bite visits on this type of forestry,
3:45 pm
as well as the national parks approach shows where a lot of international forests could be heading. if you guys are also a chance to adapting life change or speed up the 4th version. yeah. which would otherwise take much more time. it's best to get you off of on something that is, it's all good in terms of addressing the climate crisis and it's good for resiliency as well as bio diversity. ok and see if i would, even though it might look tragic, a new batch of forest is already starting to grow. one that is more resilient than what we created before. and one that will hopefully weather and adapt to whatever is going to happen in the coming decade back. so that leaves a new addition to the streets yard over the last decade has been this battery operated electric show. and now these can be found across the d as in india. log on . yeah, they're really cheap for the rider, but also for the oil not. and they're also headed, bringing down meet it's dean energy diets in blythewood goes one easy cry at design
3:46 pm
. you would know from the outside, but batteries are conceived beneath the note sign. see it's electric rick show is a viewing session for him. sign by signing my electric. rick shaw. this is like, got a selection me for me as it helps me earn a living. and i think it's my duty to take care of it daily. more and more ritual drivers by choosing to do without dirty diesel. because induced population is growing rapidly, especially in the cities. experts estimate the traffic go double by 2050 and with it exhaust fumes. there are still millions of diesels, baldwood $2.00 and $3.00 villas on india 0 it's. but the market for electric vehicles is booming. as do we low sales sho, regarding an annual jump of 30 percent to some 900000 transport export side multiple reasons for this trend. which i could be to the major of these are the
3:47 pm
reasons for those growth in india to begin with. it's in the us clements, not just in the government policies that have sort of let this transition from ice to electric, waiting broadly. the 2nd reason if i were to attribute is sort of economics and the total it is, the stock ups in india of its view and you started making these electric way coast and in entrusted into getting into manufacturing get a looks like where it goes, dr. you need to, to start, i would say, in a certain sense and in many cases the model is simple. instead of lots of battery blocks, it's usually the small ones that have a show to like, spend, what are affordable for drivers, like i'll show up to han that i've made that have for the it costs less and has so many advantages compared to a normal rickshaw yet that i can save up to a 1000 rupees a day off this out of ring pops up. i say yes, all of the money to do. he wants to buy
3:48 pm
a new electric rick shop. he just needs to choose one. the government has invested heavily electron mobility and offered subsidies and incentives to both customers and dealers. a vehicle like this used to cost almost $3000.00 us dollars, but thanks to the government subsidy, it now only costs the customer half as much. and therefore far less than a gasoline powered car it's. it's a whole new driving experience for customers. so it is a good 5 days electric, rick. sean is a really useful and available everywhere. they don't use gasoline, so we don't have any exhaust fumes. i often use them to take my children to school or to go to the bench to full market and visit my brothers. once more, the service is cheap. it's also easier to get in and out of the electric richer
3:49 pm
getting. it's very comfortable shop to han. yep. so take a test drive today. yeah, i've been driving an electric vehicle for 3 years. i only commute with my electric rick shots that doesn't pollute the environment. it doesn't. it's meant as much exhaust fumes as gasoline and diesel vehicles. i got a bottle of me come on if i that's why he has come back for a new one. this business says 200 vehicles a month and is hiring new workers in new york and we've been in business for 10 years and they have good annual growth. but in the last 2 years, post cove in this industry is seen phenomenal growth. people's mindset is changing in favor of electron mobility and dice and huge success in the future as well. gimme one coffee, where the developing a sentiment echoed by hundreds of companies in india's electric vehicles sector. and with more people like the not sign starting as electric. so drivers, they're helping to go to air pollution with each ride new change and so july,
3:50 pm
the pollution is a major problem for the machine ecosystem. she ordered in the research as estimate to nearly $5000000.00 tons of fertilizers residues for you to the coastline each year. and this is also a problem that denmark is dealing with. the bars, dixie is running out of oxygen. the baltic sea, with its stunting nature, is one of northern york's most popular travel destinations and the coastline a long body. a fjord is one of denmark's most expensive residential areas. but it's superficial. beauty is deceptive. he's weekly fishing trips continued to show the shot. las amigos in how the feud is slowly dying. below the surface, l. d. 's blooming clouding the water and depriving fish and underwater plants provide to life and oxygen. scientists footage shows how the bottom of the fuel it
3:51 pm
has become nearly devoid of life in water. is that once with full of cod flounder and lum fish, it used to be a real fish. is paradise. it says nicholson. but now there are almost no fish less he's been going out to sea for over half a century. because then had hoped to continue fishing off to retirement, to supplement his pension. now, taking the boat out is not really worth it anymore. somebody that is a new and he makes me both angry and frustrated. nobody is really doing anything special. no it, it seems like those who should be taking action are only trying to shift the blame on the 2 point. oh, excuse me. no, no, no, no. i didn't make a since mine denmark's farm is to blame. the small country with just under $6000000.00 inhabitants is home to twice as many cows and pigs
3:52 pm
and many farm is used fertilizers on the fields that eventually end up in the c christian medicines finalize only a few kilometers from the field. he says he has already cut the use of nitrates to the bare minimum. he uses satellite images to monitor which fields need to be fertilized and which can do without. but he thinks it would be impossible to give up fertilizers altogether. i think it's a good thing that we have reduce the nitrogen, but i don't think we can get any further. i think we got the lowest limit that we can accept as a, from plants need nutrients to grain one grow without them since the pharma and since reducing the use of fertilizes his plan. so already only surviving on what is left in the ground. a mads p as the
3:53 pm
christianson is aware of the problem. as a nature manager, these are the seeing a project and restoring the ecosystem invite yes, your, you know, is the hard facts and numbers. at this point, we know for a fact that the 80 percent of the nutrients emitted to why the fuel it comes from funding. we also have 10 percent today from, from the up in waste water and maybe 10 percent from, from fish farming. but that is the range and that's uh tell us a little bit about where we need to have the nitrate run off regularly closes out the gross to explode. the balloon covers everything in the field. even killing that you gross due to like the probation that same you across is one of the most important elements in the ecosystem along the baltic sea coast. it produces oxygen and provide habitat for smaller fish. that's why
3:54 pm
christianson and his team from the municipality. i've taken to planting new beds of you grass, invited your fuel. but the restoration project is complicated. artificial rapes are being built and muscle fonts, created. these blue muscles filter dirty water, which in turn allows more light to penetrate deeper fuel gross can return and therefore produce oxygen. but when too many nutrients are flushed into the sea, again, causing the algae to return, the fragile balance is thrown off and the nature manages concerns not restricted to divide. you feud, we have hit this breaking point the, the system has collapsed within the last 56 years. so that's just the beginning. we will see this, this situation is over the baltic. along the coast. the eco system of the inland sea has become disrupted. lots of mucous and sees little other
3:55 pm
than crowds in the nets. he puts out in the value field of the since they no longer have any natural enemies, they have become a plague. destroying that you gross eating the muscles and killing the young fish. did code mucus in hopes that everyone in the region would take more responsibility and act to save his fuel . because the problem, denmark is currently looking to solve is already threatening the baltic seas entire coast. modifying the way the fish bomb or get to the island is urgently needed to help us adapt to this applicant changing what are there any such of that patients that you are seeing that on where you are? let us know you can email us already talked to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week until then take care bye
