to a close to nothing that's a most of this floor of attrition. the ukraine's move, the other side starts october 26 on dw, the i'm priscilla in san lagos, nigeria, welcome to our new edition of echo offer, gut human cause deployment disruption. there's no effect of life this week. we're looking at the examples up for us to come to the products for me to change the many ways that the economies of societies are reacting to today's new reality and adopt into a show of, by the way, with me becomes more sustainable. here's what's coming up.
9:31 pm
finding the energy property in somalia, with solar power. we met only jam mind needs in 5 ways. and in downtown how citizen sciences, helping reduce my reading, plastic pollution. what the data on salt offer tells west coast home to one of the world's most expensive shellfish abalone because the communities that play a key role in meeting the growing global demand for this locks recently food, but at least the local official people clock between the needs to make a living and the leads to protect marine life. in the what is a doing by on south africa's west coast dive is that on a mission to protect what they call white gold. the wealth most highly prized
9:32 pm
shellfish beasts on health and could be mistaken for a muscle. but the perfectly common flushed avenue is in fact to snail with grazing habits, good health, to keep the count equal system in balance. its population is on the brink of extinction. due to poaching and illegal trades with asia, where it is a lucrative delicacy enduring by people are trying to provide alternatives and we are having 2 people on the farm currently in gordon's by the end of diving school training to become commercial davis. and then we will take out another to another 2 people from the communities to do diving for us. and it will also help us to come to the approaching process. samuel central unit is the c e o. during by abalone from the company strives to provide the sustainable and legal alternative growing the snails on land and in the ocean. and f alone snail takes up to 10 use to grow to size before being harvested and dried for x.
9:33 pm
so the customer loves everyone have a loan safe, especially the farm is the main employer in the small fishing town with a permanent workforce of 52 people breeding growing and preparing this nails for markets. the company is 35 percent community owned through the building by development trust. the idea is to keep local residents on board with sustainable fishing. if you still form you'll, you'll share at the end of the day when you'll save will be declared will be, will be smaller. and then i think people stop, stop understanding their bus. and those are all as a shell to outside in the community. so they stop protecting also, so she lives now the fate of the other known as closely linked to socio economic inequalities in south africa here in handbook and tapes out,
9:34 pm
people have been living off the sea for generations, but the government reductions of quotas to protect the remaining stock, left small scale fissures, it's was close to nothing for just like warren and his colleagues continued going out to catch up alone regardless dangerous. but what can we do when i saw a live system for, you know, families. i have a good day. i can get maybe 2000 a day in the day even get on a week for the 4th. 2000. yeah. so what about cooking multiple times? i've considered the only thing that's keeping me is that i don't give a shot and move them. yeah, we don't think we don't really know what we just think. why do we think it's going to sustain us? the cultures and just the tiny share of the legal trait. but over the past 17 years, the total value of illegally harvested as a known from south africa was estimated to be $800.00. 19000000
9:35 pm
u. s. dollars. rickie loved one. for some it has not minutes. just don't the trade that's become increasingly violent and corrupt. came on display of is a journalist and researcher who says other known poaching has reached an all time high. that obviously has somebody come logical impacts. generally, they aren't super well understood because of the client have to so rapidly and the ecological functioning of abeline wasn't something that had been sort of closely monitored before a marine biologist and south africa would be focusing on the fisheries or other ecosystem dynamics. nova other factors such as climate change has impacted the kelp ecosystem, making it hard to pinpoint the effects of the declining abalone population. sustainable farming is one way out of the crisis, but so far it is not competing with the blooming illegal markets. customers in asia pay up to $2012.00 more than $200.00 euro for one single avenue. and
9:36 pm
so you won't find many local restaurants here without the known on demand. among the precious few is fine. in cape town, we get an avalon from atlanta today i filled out the west coast. yeah. oh, they farming practices and everything. so sweet is a sandoval, we can get them in life and michelle, we can use the liver and the angels and everything was a 0 wastage. so we're going to face the avalon intel natural glutamate to bring out the mommy's negative. this attached to it. and i think it's sort of job to educate the, the general public. and i guess as to the most sustainable farming practices that we do have high enjoying level that they do check on the doors and by as a new, informed me, as who provides a glimpse into how important this sustainable solution can be. i a president for my
9:37 pm
job i, i love what i'm doing. it saves my life in a lot of ways. you f buttons for and so you know, things and, and so on. when i, when i get this job, i used to separate myself from them. and now i'm a little guy. more family man. big deal of my, of my family, big deal. my kids hopes are high that the other don't farm will grow and re invest in the community if it can develop the i think it would, it would out create jobs for more people in the community didn't. and so, so we can, we can know we can go further and the prospect of fishing communities, having more secure livelihoods should also bring dividends for the afternoon. population. on this report takes us to god the country generates of thought green $1100000.00 tons of plastic waste every year,
9:38 pm
but less than 10 percent of that is collected, recycled thoughts of pre to show config. but there is hope, a number of prospects organizations coming together to see how they can help make waste management law or efficient of the beach clean up is going to be back breaking work similarly and listened future . well, this is a mission with a difference. these volunteers on from, from beach east of gunners competent across, and not just collecting old ways. this group called plastic punch have a plan. this searching, measuring, and pencil, leaving all the items as a weapon to find back against the scourge. richmond kennedy kwaku organizes these cleanups, helping with volunteers from nearby communities. so when volunteers come around,
9:39 pm
community members speak to shoes. if you have any issues. if applicant plastics or quality plastics, if the up it came down to pace difficulty to face this, we are able to separate the recycle bullets from the non reset. so that was because he wants to the most states in the community that they can be some value from these things. what i've done, finding them, you know what that weighs, what it weighs, such as across call a lagoon had been turned into aquatic waste dumps. would only a tiny fraction of the city's trash being properly collected and recycled. besides, poisoning the land, the deputies flushed into the ocean, breaking down into micro plastics, getting into the food chain and destroying the aquatic echo systems. and it's from places like corner like good that a big deal of the trash wash is down to prom from beach, with plastic punches working are they see the data collection a form of citizen scions as
9:40 pm
a way out of the mess we uh, when docs in between us, hello not, not the solution for the plastic pollution minutes because this i funding this high side, they'll be much less coming in higher buy stuff. that's a very good activity to call it to really funds visa. then once we have concentrated on today is to understand what the police on what this for you thing, and also which brian, this which campaign yourself, what you would say with the dates that i chose team can begin the crucial next phase, helping the local authorities to understand the waste flows and figure out how to stop it, ending up in the ocean. so with that data, we're able to tell where the waste is coming from. and the type of ways that these come me into the show. and then the ones that i really say couple and then the ones that i know we say couple. so this informed as, as the assembly, how to plan for the management of the waste issue. the citizen science is also
9:41 pm
a key part of a much bigger puzzle. ocean conservation is one of the united nations, 17 sustainable development goals. but efforts a combat moraine plastic pollution had been held back by lack of reliable data from from beach and gun. as a microcosm of world wide problem, it's been estimated that we have dumped up to 200000000 tons of trash into the sea . most of its indestructible plastic, as some estimates, say, the rate of increase the triple in the coming decades. the un environment programs as the only solution is to fundamentally change how we use plastic. a sense of groups like plastic bunch done. i became the 1st country to monitor a plastic devry density, according to you what guidelines the data loaded onto a u. n. platform containing the world's largest citizen science dentist at unmarried let's a officials of gunners. the technical service said again,
9:42 pm
if at this very useful then when you came in to the beach, they also compiling data that would let policy make us appreciate the value of the activity one. to also appreciate what we are doing to ourselves in terms of nick for him to be just to the extent that one it doesn't encourage tarzan to it affects aquatic life. being able to present for steam beaches is of course also find sold a gun, a $1000000000.00 tory sector. meanwhile, full citizens, scientists like richmond kennedy, quite group the hardware because only just begun once to see that data turns into meaningful change. no, no, we understand the problem to solve it. so we need to. so you were saying, so we need political will we need investments? it's a waste management system. it's what they need to package and we need lots of how
9:43 pm
when is we are listening to the science we are listening to the same and what the results i given us when we make sense and we need to act now and for us of the citizen sciences of clean the stretches from from beach and the trash data, it has been long. their hope is that if we overly understand what happens to the plastic, we use a discount that we can truly begin to free the oceans of our trash again. now it does involve, we can still, my name is a multi $1000000000.00 industry that leaves a trail of devastation and its weight from deforestation to habits out destruction i live on human rights abuses. once it can be done responsibly. our funded mind, we had not only is the impact on the environment, kept to a minimum, the workforce is made up of we meant only and the paid offense salary. splitting the rock take strings and practice. but to notes i found us knows what
9:44 pm
she's doing. drilling hammering and holding mess of stones. this is everyday life with a female miners and cut away the looking for icon marine. today. they get lucky. how does uh, hu sheffield, i mean, i like working with shovel hammer and chisel because i realize that ever since i started working with these tools i'm set to and i don't get sick as much as i used to before i started working here. i got up and bought a lot out a lot us and then we went to the southern the tongue auction and that was 3 years ago since then. the 49 year old widow has learned a lot about your mining in this mind, especially because it is sustainable. the f one, the ring deposits are often deep inside the rocks. but as manager repeats, like when she explains the method to use you as low impact as possible
9:45 pm
to make it more sustainable with concentration more using tools and how much then of lasting so that she wants needs a very large footprint on the environment. and then these know, use those chemicals during the mining process and um, these minimal useful for time because it's basically taking the, committing rock out of the mother of that. how does it? and then we clean it if necessary, with minimal to me here in no sense, and bob wear or to is cars and has to be used sparingly. so the woman don't take water from that includes a river, but sources from a disuse mine we're rain water clicks fit, also needed for the vegetable garden contents. next to the my mom we add requirement, so we did set up some of the vegetables also go towards assisting under privilege families. but i know that up for quite a talk about 10 minute i'm are you able to show up? and we also provide the elderly with vegetables,
9:46 pm
those in the community and who can no longer fend for themselves. but see that to that? to me, i'm really we working in the fields is another part of the countess job. she enjoys dividing her time between gardening and mining, and she likes the fact that only women work here. the earned the equivalent of a $180.00 euros a month. back to the most jobs in the region of the virtual song is also sustainable. for example, the women use organic, fertilize a made from catch when the new and the practice crop rotation to enrich the swell green vegetables such as kill onions and carrots. in the past, the main crowd crow to west tobacco, the climate change means that they are no longer reliable, rainy seasons and hovers have suffered more and more people in colorado. i have turned to goals mining here on the river. many legal goals minus a woman's name,
9:47 pm
i don't see it. i can see that the woman at some bunk was, have comfortable lives. we wanted to join them, but we were told that they would no longer hiring. it's good for them as they no longer have to offer their husbands to give them money for school fees of a necessity, at least via independence. as an african countries, mining and zimbabwe is regulated by controls are irregular. very few mines in africa are sustainable. simple quick is an exception. so there's a little data available about environmentally friendly and fan monroe mining on the continent. but experts do know it's cost as much as it has to be in a way. and if that once of mine is closed, re nature ration needs to occur as extensively as possible and reserve funds have to be set aside for that. uh, definitely
9:48 pm
a mission with god and competitive to them. all it does is out of door. so it might not make is it's an issue of either a challenge even for the small scale jim, my son buckler, co founder patrick's a. don't get is regularly on site after 5 years usually pauses are rarely found. the mine still isn't financially viable, but he remains optimistic. we're making partnerships with companies that focus on empowering sustainable mining. i mean that's, that's the future. everyone wants to know where the trace evidence to be able to trace where they're still in is coming from and minds like i was going to be the minds of the future. this is a woman already taking re not to ration measures and planting trees once a month. big painted 1800 cds. many having survived the bananas and papayas have thrived, and the woman will soon be harvesting them. the carving not most sustainable future,
9:49 pm
not just in the gym mine, but here in the fields too. from the old ones in probably too close to somalia, we have pretty used to charging out foods weighed at wherever we need to. but imagine live in some way with no electricity. what would you do when by treat arouse out? that's just a lot of the challenges people face will lock access to energy. it's a major problem for marginalized communities around the world. report a visit that the last bill read. yeah, there's a body a to see how and then you pull the t affect people's lives and what can be done. so i leave you to ask me those monies, please, especially since she's only drawing water from the swell today to show how hard it used to be just to fetch the precious results for use at home. the
9:50 pm
on the i b and the we used to walk more than 3 kilometers from home, looking for water and i was using it and we bring jerry cans to carry it now. so i was under water was susie and dirty luck on that. on the food was close here, the well, the asking you, what are you in a big changes of come to the little village of a by ducks in the 1000 residents of the spinning slot at the gates of somebody's copy to look at the issue. finally, we have electricity, it's even solar power, or our wireless charging, our phones used to be a big problem. i know we'd walk a long way to, to 0 to charge them and pay $50.00 us cents. some of the poor couldn't afford that $59.00, but now our homes have power 24 hours a day. most people on the peninsula leave from fishing. like mohammed double up, the hardy is got to use to spoiling the heat before he could take it to the markets
9:51 pm
in mogadishu, the solar pod phrases house the feast, stay fresh low. no. i do though, then i don't worry about the 2 fish icons and because the solar company tomorrow so brought the freezer where the fish will remain until the driver comes to pick them up. but they have also had a look. i'm sending them to market and expect to sell them for $30.00 each of those to of the electrification program he up would solve as a model for positive changes in the country. on the home of africa, somalia was long viewed as a field that this is a developing country recovering from the security on the civil war around with a year. so if somebody is sending and this needs to be exploited,
9:52 pm
there are a lot of companies, so money private companies that have already started to invest in solar energy. the company tar muscle is not promoting one of these projects in a, by ducks. and these many groups sort of plant with a 10 kilowatts capacity life of the hot feats it should provide all of the roughly 150 houses within a tricity. and she is making sure that the to goes to plan definitely is a trained electrical engineer. the planned provides the village with electricity around the clock, even if the sun is in china during the day it would be tucked into. but there is an give an energy to the coordinate system that we support, the show unofficial to people and nobody to handle it and do it on the nights. it sorts of like the village with electricity that's we have the news you're using the website. it's no, it's even easier to get to water. and electric pump draws water from this well on
9:53 pm
the mainland to the peninsula, where it's select cindy's water tongue and is distributed to the household. no, the water comes right out of the top. the fire estimate ultima no longer need solution, lift it all the way when she wants to cook. so how many of 7 and what does i will do that? is it a 5? now i can get some rest and have temp water in my home by solar power used to fetch water and carry in here from far away. now i have clean water to drink. okay. i like on to the next installation. the many good companies for technicians plus a method skeptic to some doubted where the solar power was as good as conventionally generated electricity. although they was superstitious and see it, the technology was from the uh, this was simply worried about the cold. and that's why when the 1st 2 months, we didn't have a lot of people uh, of the best we decided that we want to take on is finishing money from the people
9:54 pm
who would just take the monthly expenses. but it's $10.00 per month. this family decided to jump on the bundle of a life filed ease being installed and the 1st 10 eviction is new horizons dokey center, the thought, asking well, in the last 30 years, we didn't know what was going on in the outside world. but after we installed solar power and started watching tv at home, that's changed. the mini grid costs about $70000.00 us dollars international. don't us contribute 60 percent via africa enterprise. the challenge fund, the world bank covers the remaining 40 percent of the loan. the many grid will ton a profit quotes or muscle in 2 years time. we look at these training new sort of technicians for the company. such experts of identity needed some money, a 48 years, increasingly counting on solar energy at sundown, socializing outdoors, used to come to an ending of
9:55 pm
a duct sum. but thanks to the electricity is towed into many groups, fit feet. there is no lights up to the dock and a lot of fun to be to wow, well let's look at the now tomorrow. so it gives us electricity, uninstalled lights on the roads. all of our children and old people are playing and chatting out doors that way, but yeah, i don't, we are grateful to them, but we best out on this on a project on update ducts is subbing as an example to the region 300 mil households nearby and i'll getting them onto the colored menu. that is it for most here i echo offered of this week. i hope you've enjoyed the stories and they've given you something to think about. well, if you have something to share with us then right, does equal a d, w dot com, we'd love hearing from you. for now. it's good bye for me, chris o'lance,
