to every single connection mapped out shows the geophysical reality, the on the board is what makes things the way they are mapped out, navigating a changing world. now on youtube, the how can we improve life in our cities with more and more people across africa and around the globe moving to other areas. this question has never been more important . i am sandra co homes, a 3 know do a writing company. welcome to yet another exciting edition of eco offer eco, and i chris a lives in legal spikes area on the show. today, we'll look at how we could cleared up off cities,

making life better for us of in our environment. peers was coming up, volunteer divers, retrieving fresh from lake lake toria, uganda fights in pollution. the french cities that's getting a lot of gold about caught in their mission and protective shocks. we look at conservation efforts in south africa. we're talking about the quality of life is it is there is for nothing more important that the air will breeze compulsion of cause and trucks and noon to pump all emissions that palm rolls the environment and public health. so active is not experts in i real big catherine hot and off the top of a pollution from paul ordinary citizens to become chain because this is the device that's good health transform every day. life in a row, be a small since i'm measuring air pollution in the city center. mainly to blame for

the quality of the pixel to as motorcycles and diesel. call it meaning funds known as massages for the kids up and planning, advocates, humphrey or html. as close, they will be home, you walk right, joins projects between the city, government and the un exploding ways to make tenants copy. told rena. he's particularly concerned about them, attaches shopped him to copy those sheets that are coming from different thoughts, lots of different tools. they are it's, i mean it's into their seats. so they, it's, i mean it's, i'm ending the seats, we just want our listing. so this has both a low sofa formulation sheet through the seats. now they would of your day to see surveys conducted by he's organizational phones. higher incidence rates of bronchitis implants as well. my touch is fly betsy. but on the delta legged ends like these can only go so fast

driving big policy changes, go up on a city wide level. you take, how did the to the tenants, government does know todd, yet this is a way offensive. africa comes in the organization develops and assembles devices for environmental monitoring, unemployment action, africa, cities in africa in general, does not have data on the air quality levels. and because of that we have increasing terrible air pollution levels, right? so it's important for us to begin collecting this data to be able to compare it and see whether there's any health impacts. but since those are expensive, that is a problem that's alicia. a lot of those engineering team is working hard to solve

a record this a low cost of quality monita. and the reason being is that it's relatively cheap, but frontier to defense. good morning tests. we cost, you know, dental tens of thousands of yesterday the kids to components of 3 d printed on the team. she has the blueprints for the modified design, freely on the citizen scientist. anyway, in the world can legally replicate the device without charge. bringing the costs down on to $300.00 euros. who am i should be available? referring read models can cost me only 100 times as much on the team, frequently head out to inspect and inventing this senses. they've installed in different parts of the road, and moines, mostly to dwellers, are requesting the devices. people like give you malware. the shopkeeper has us the model general the restaurant above these premises to host

a sense of humor. oh. cool. um yeah. most of the time i get our stuff, i just just paid the full feeding every now and then we must go to hospital. it took up no able to present to the doctor today. i thought it too so that i have to be able to prove all i have watched so many dogs to the come to oppose this felicia and smoke, but uh no action has to be taken. so yeah. healthy uh collection. maybe you have something to prove to them. sensors like these can a give a clip, pick general air quality and specific locations. but what would help to talk look the pollution in the city, the united nations, electric mobility program,

advocates for a shift to electric vehicles. alex co not saves, transitioning away from conventional combustion engines, needs to be incentivized economically. and that gets in to we'll transport is a good place to start or 20 years ago. the almost no motorcycles in kenya. now we have about $2000000.00 motorcycles, 250300000 motorcycles edit for a year. and if you would like to fight them, this has a definite and significant impact on greenhouse gas emission reductions. progress is being met. can you know both on electric motorcycle taxi fleet and the government has some bushes targets within 5 years. 100000. the motor bikes are set to roll onto kenya's treats. so more and more people we'd be able to hold on to clean up some supports like oven planning, advocates, humphrey or html. and who knows this much needed air pollution sensors might be redundant, so we all need to be able to get to around every day in the come premium way.

but it's realistic for everyone in the city to have y'all reform of motorized transport, providing defense and reliable public false quotation is showing in the way ford. this is now head to europe. a french c. t is giving residents a big incentive to stop using that cause. and as you will see, the more people are wise to the challenge, the great to the benefits. monday morning and moon peggy and something from the city with its half a 1000000 inhabitants is waking up and then i entropy is on her way to work. last december, she stopped teasing her parents call to make the 7 columbus to join the free public transport is a really good idea, especially for people like myself, i think twice before spending 50 euros on a monthly subscription. i. i only in 1950 euros gross per month. similar to my

sister who's also switched to public transport. the hey ma, it's only taking me 26 minutes to get to 10 minutes less than by coffee or was it? i like the stress free way of traveling less on protecting the environment. the longest pest services report is always on to travel is financed by a tax paid by companies with at least 11 employees, such as the one in which my in should be works. as a manager's personal assistant, i think the company used to be in an area with pool access to public transport. and that's why we moved to this location, which is only a 3 minute walk away from the tram. actually do that in the top for once. the title is repaid, being used for something beneficial to society. welcome. this is a really good measure. the height of smoking for february stick with the medium

sized companies, provides easy to use with those codes management software for businesses operating in an environment to the sustainable way. it's crucial to them all. and so like as a software developer, we only use service that are exclusively wrong with renewable energy. we have planted free trees on our grounds. we are very careful with the amount of electricity we use for lighting and air conditioning. last year, we reviewed common footprint. we have reduced plastic usage, but there is still a way to go with that. such efforts to the delight of the socialist lead city government. is it true, a big party to celebrate the introduction of free public transport and will peggy last december, the september deport the heed free public transport gives citizens some of that purchasing power by your

illogical and social measure. so she has, it helps as a fight global warming. that's but it doesn't touch people and it gets everyone on board me that the fuel costs the wrong about the clean of the we breeze. don't know if you mean you have a left for his po and the measure seems to be getting down. well with more pen, he's young inhabitants, much easier to just choose and it helps a lot not to have to spend money on transport. moltin. so this encourages people to say, fuel intake, public transport instead a but it's easy to evaluate the hospital. but part of this plan is the construction of a new tram line. the 50 mon, peggy, it will be completed late next year and connect the university port valerie, when more than 20000 students a signed up. it always seems the universe, the entrance is while you then you can see there is very important construction work underway and you will have to trim stops right here. additional bike lanes

thing. i'm some parking for cars as a but less than in the past with i'm only also transforming this square which was useful parking into a pedestrian area. the university has created a lot of extra bike parking to the research was hoping this one to be used by students as security is about 40 percent of our teaching stuff currently come by call. what you so might take the time in the future. now this option exists what a good public transport network is crucial for free public transport or to make a difference. but getting around by public transport is not as easy in place as further from the center. central to v dot is an adjacent satellite town and part of more pelias metropolitan area with about 12000 inhabitants and counting people. daniel works in the sub, but lives in the city center. he's part of a lobby group, calling for the money spent funding free public transport to be invested in extending the network instead. the way it is about 4 pm says i'm there is only one

from every 15 minutes, even though it's going home, time of transport, links to say pool. so that local townhome is even set up or shut that box on own district that you have to pay for because it, if you want free public transport, you need to consider that the city is growing. yeah. otherwise, you just please people in the city center with a good transport network and forget those in the outskirts. i mean, we all fit so traditional chevy. this homepage, a city. the new trim line is also going to run through central to the di da. you always hoping it's just the start. if the network is extended, the company's the max hopes that even more of its employees will take public transport. the c o also wants to make an even greenow. this we're going to construct a couple of bikes, should read the cloak where in store of solar panels on our review and the for so

we can become even more sustainable and reduce energy costs. you know, prices of reasoning by significantly more than i knew is here. this could include in, now this isn't easy to it's one big step forward has already been achieved. thanks to the new scheme, transport no longer makes up the line and share of the company's company, the footprint it will be in 1st thing to see is that strategy actually walks out and maybe even in splash other cities as well. so now tell me how many of you, lots of coffee, if you do, you're definitely not alone. it is false, becoming the walls most popular beverage for many of us grabbing a ticket with coffee is a daily routine. more often the note is, comes in a disposable cap, which ends up in the sauce. but note in one that is sweet songs to a new initiative.

it's like a vending machine in with this re usable coffee cups and not issued to you, returned customers and then refunded a 67 us cent deposit, denmark's 2nd largest city or who's introduced the scheme to reduce waste from single use comes last year. we did a cleaning of the river that runs through the city and we picked up 100000 losses. so it is an issue and all of this stuff ends out in the nature. we get the micro plastic. we get cups all over the place. saturday morning. the cd looks like fresh . so this will be a significant impact on, on. i'm michael plastic, but also the general picture of how the city looks. 25 machines scheduled throughout the city center. now take back the custom made cups for reuse that then transported to this cleaning facility. about $40003.00 usable takeaway cups a currently in circulation. officials say it will take time for the system to pay

for itself, but the benefits of west city council hopes to scale it up significantly. the appraiser gave us can be expanded to all kind of of take away. this can be the piece of box. this can be the, the box. you have your car in. it can be the beer bottles. it can be pretty much anything that will go into a trash can. the scheme is set to run for 3 years before undergoing a review. more than 40 cafe. some balls have already signed up building on other return schemes. we've done it with with plastic bottles and that works a superbly and you never see a plastic bottle are lying around because you know, people have incentive in, in taking it and, and getting whatever amount of money you can get from it. and but creating that and, and creating a new habit for people in terms of to go cups. and i think that's going to be challenging. but so many introducing another deposit system is not problem. on the

contrary, i think that the people should get used to that we'd have to take care and we'd have to move out. so to, to these machines, especially a good one. and if everyone plays the part, it's sure to be successful. that's also the message over the next report from right to in uganda. as we know, the was oceans of choking on plastic, but looks like even more polluted, like victoria is a serious risk of degrading partly due to pull west management, bought lots of people walking hard to ton things around once a month. how some people it takes a day to such a waste. so disability endo, with taste low e and these critics don't talk to dave to deep says plus the flux to us of this office like victoria of because we guess fresh with a leak is food of trash,

don't they? oh, and when they, they don't do the some plastics on this fishing nets which are no longer being used by the fish. i mean how something relieves and that you can't insure for like victoria. so he was most of you, somebody from what's to us for almost 3 years now. he's been diving for a look organization that seems to clean up the leak. they pulled out a bundle and fish and eats or goes to minutes, which had been yes for the day as the project is a day when i entered the i don't and there was web me with a fishing net. yeah, that's the worst thing that i used in my life, which i'm always on the crate, the cut over there of the clean up the water. they also retrieve waste from the show that's covered in this petition. the 9 month to most of them gets help from volume t as each month. they get tons of plastic. i'm going to land face over to him, but started

a new city. he's been organizing originally cleanups here for, for yes. he's program, you can the junior ranges seems to return the lake. it's not just state the plastic and other what's the lake? victoria mainly comes from the canals. hope you're getting discovery to accomplish that is which should have been much of it will come out. the team of the junior ranges, lexia 3 times a week. we do what do i say it picks it up to make? we do uh, what about the channels that you get to them is that they're on the lake and nicholas go ahead. he has a lot of the shows of liquid dirtier because of it, it was the we have the able to put a will by $10.00 or less these uh, within the least amount of the uh, what does it, but we the big got you we, we we can, we are able to, we can afford it as of as much as $50.00 in less than plastic. the 2 most of tries to cover these as many residents as possible to tighten the clean up on the

canal. so we try to bill just to a cheap oh the community by you mean what we are trying to do uh, through these community activities, clean up activities and when they are going to commit to re engage with the community, do so try to get them involved and then uh, educate them about the negative impact it has to their communities and the neighborhood or those leaving the as it kind of starting to realize that details here and be to for the environment. let's just to waste, think to the water. if you solve the for the site which are meant for the body for the free and convenient for a family on the, for fish, the or the for all of activity to exactly what takes place on x. so far know it's enough. people have to convince us to help protect lake victoria. clean water is critical for the survival. those are leave on the lake. a centennial comes from is for me to fishes. and those 1st time. how important is these fees?

i don't 100 low phone daisy. but the way i knew i loved this, you'll and just to up so that it got hurt. if i left, it was the life d and his group wants to continue the project. they will continue to do kitchen young people in the process, which will allow the diving team to keep growing. i know for a story from south africa, the mind to recoil a change of thinking shocks often vilified and feed. but they actually to play a key role in the ocean ecosystem. does right, sandra, south africa's long coast line is home to 100. so shock species. the country has been a thrill blaze when it comes to studying and protecting these and tended screeches . and next reports will take a deep dive into the topic of shock conservation, as migrating blue,

socks of frequent visitors to the coast of south africa. poseida shy shops and gully shots on native to its calc forest. these brown seaweeds are home to more than 200 shots species. the shock expos, ryan daily, regularly monitors their activities to conserve shocks. we need to know where they go, where they spend time. so we are tagging the shock just to god where they go and identify critical habitat for them so that we can improve protection for these critical areas. he and his team fit the shots with acoustic transmitters, so they can track them a procedure, the shocks, bailey. notice to double once they've been tagged, the transmitter in midland, ultrasonic pulse for 6 years. and the last couple of years of

tags over a 100 trucks representing about 10 or 12 different species. many of the shocks off endangered. and we hope to find out more about the way that guy specifically i've been multiple years. we have to identify critical areas for them. over a $150.00 receive is a mood along the sea budget to detect the signals from the tech shocks. whenever one of them swims by the receiver records, the id number, the signal ranges up to one kilometer. the acoustic receivers are regularly brought onto dry land, so the doctor, they've loved to, can be evaluated. they have to work with big naturally a top collaborate is to share data on a receipt is so all of the data we clicked on these receive is it said within a network. and then we able to figure out where these shots have been, where they're standing the time,

so that we can prioritize the conservation of the the program can only work so long as there's broad support for shock conservation efforts. from an early age. humans are afraid of these ocean print, it is no shock. populations can only survive if public attitudes to them change and that requires raising awareness by changing the mind states, i believe that i am changing the world one step at a time, a one kid at a time. for me, 5, a group of 49 is and i'm changing the minds. it's one child, even if it's going to be families and teaching them, watch all the same fulton we already, um, making such a big difference. the media tends to report on shocks, mainly when they have been attacks on humans. at the shock education center in cape town, children can learn about the valuable role they play in marine ecosystems and get

up close with shock, eggs, and even teeth. of those extra time of this big stuff on how they actually know and that they're not actually thing just to us that we actually endangered them by polluting and by catching conservation notes, i've also equipped an underwater camera with bait. so they can also observe smaller shy of sharks that look into killed forrest off the coast line it to lose the amount of hiding, allowing the researches to gain useful insights into ocean by diversity. the collected data is analyzed using a program the team developed to help them assess their findings. we've taken some open source machine learning software and trained it on hundreds of images and sharks and fish and all of the species that we come across here and

phosphate um so that we can use it for detecting these bases in videos in the future. their research has already proved highly constructive. they is already more public acceptance of shock, conservation, and conservation areas. now make up 5 percent of south africa's oceans. environmental. this would like to see that area increase further in order to protect marine ecosystems. what majestic creative and that brings us to the end of today's too great to have you along. i'm curriculums in late goes. see you next time by piece on to all of you. if you've got any idea about how we can all look upto environment, do get in touch with love to hear from you. and don't forget to check us out on all those social media platforms to. i am sandra holmes, that we know do sign and go from complex,

right to any of gun to the,

the, the on this week we ask to drop off or not. how many people have friends who jeff i'd let me see by show has that's every one of the young africans who left the hassle and insurance just what's a good way to be really paid? well, for doing the same thing, i did do a name here on tuesday because everyone who's going to be able to country the 77 percent in 30 minutes on the dw the

just about why does this? because now i'm leaving the new host. join us for an exciting explanation of everything in between moses a video and audio production 5 d w. i hope that you will tune in the welcome to but tire timelines, campus sofas. thanks to read it to you. you can't get anywhere else in the world. in germany, if you go to a prostitute, we pay twice or $3.00 times as much and the other half the service
