1:30 am
9 and we're stuck in test. shane, silence, we need to break out of a. i want to tell you something. how to tell a secret starts november 29th on dw, the environment faces multiple threat. most of them us or result of human activities that have a slightly damage into effect on the world around those. and there are really no quick fixes. but of today's show, we'll see how people find good ways to make the most of a bad situation of finding positives. i have crystal lens and lake us by jerry a great to have you with us and he has what's coming up. what the migratory birds
1:31 am
got tell us about climate change on the basic plans to be she can be turned into high quality annual fee and ways to recycle used to mode to we stop the show in the democratic republic of congo. the country is the world's largest produce of minute rows including cold birth by a long way and demand is growing. the metal is used in the batteries that pos, smartphones, computers, and electric vehicles. so this is a highly profitable industry, but it's also male dominated. we met the group of women who are making sure they 2 benefits from the mining boom and they are protecting the environment in the process of and then just don't virginia dallas fast enough and here in town got in the south of
1:32 am
the dfcs. the geologist is fascinated by the so an underground and then, but it is visa didn't, right? so we call them comp structure of this as a business to display. so qualifications where do you need a dialect? couldn't find a job in the countries mining sector webpage. you guys pursue human, i believe just just can mean the roles of weight. as a result, women constitute just 5 percent of the walk for excluding them from the from the profit we have the capacity, copeland, cobalt. mine makes an exception because it's a sunday and grunts at the excess you what makes best. she knows exactly where to take the don't let me know how does a silver console the realization goes like this. if you follow it, if you want to find it, see how it dips. so that's where it's going to go. you can most of just follow the shape. see most up long. that's where it all starts. just like over there that knew,
1:33 am
that's where you'll find to come to the bottom of i don't say though was ended also, and quibbles are always found together in sub fluids. the d r c has around 6000000 tons of cobalt. more than half the wall. it's deposits, this mineral is an essential component with a bunch of these powering everything from smartphones and computers to an electric vehicle. but it's extraction also poses a switch to bio diversity. the dust from the countries to single mines with 250000 people, walk with their bare hands, pollute the water and suffocates flora and phone. ready cobalt production has increased by 600 percent impact to yes, reaching 870000 tons in 2023, a total of $12500000.00 companies are employed in the mind. most of them run by
1:34 am
multinational especially chinese companies. so an old mine belongs to a local community which gives unique adella as a member of the enter your remaining mining or wim, access to the site on this particular sunday. google tate marcella. the organizations president wanted the geologist to assess the mines impact on the environment the into your mission is to mitigate the environmental impact of the mining sector and to find income generating opportunities for women who suffer the most from the impact of the minerals are exhausted. all week long that such sites and others spend a whole day here. the work of lead must is of what of workers and other plastic weeks on site. as a member of wim, virginia adela has set to self. the task of recycling this waste created by the mining the most what i love, most of luck. my walk is how i help the environment on flipping. the biggest
1:35 am
challenge is the levels necessary materials to flip back to the inputs we have in the future generation, which he rates us to keep going to continue. originate other lives, most alone in a fight supported by women in mining. the 2 and 7 year old has set up her own reciting business. she's high ups to young people and also has a team of for me to lead kids together, they transform plastic waste into baskets and useful gadgets for the mind. in the evening she says how inside, good evening everyone. welcome to a web be not tonight to stop on the agenda these time creating networks and encouraging women to become interested in use by recycling waste. without access to mining jobs, the a. mr ton, a lack of opportunities into an asset. this is also the idea behind the women in mining organization. some of the research to ourselves. if we can't find jobs,
1:36 am
there may be what we can do is recover everything people through a way to create jobs that's continued re income for household, and that's where the women are being mentored by us because of a 5 low we concrete examples, ecological chuckle, which the n g o trains women to produce from ash, so dust and clean. this environmental new friendly method enables women in rural areas where the mines have rendered land unfathomable to generate income. prior to this project, they used to cut down trees. do attached by the expansion of the mines, or the say, yeah, so saves them out of boxes via we was equal benefits. it's good for us, that's good to thousands of these up because it to reduce the timber cutting email . i'm going to throw off at the end. we've just discovered that this m was in the us are put to lives of when it came to the one that would be my ma'am, you'll bake with me. it trimmed and reached also in and i have none of that mean to
1:37 am
say to them, but they cut off and enable us to recover the houses we used to have come to a 1000 windows sheet. of them is a, in a week with an ongoing vision in other lot, immediately sees another potential market. she suggests walking together with the women going to be having trouble filling their merchandise. and you have customers, you're going to join forces foster goods, just the quality of their product. because if you're going to send it to a customers, we need to be sure it's good. we'll need a few samples. it has to conform to our calculations concerning funding time. and when we have such a site, we propose it to our partners because yeah, i know, i know best in there. and a rounding of hyundai is an appointment with another member of the women in mining group who has recently started producing consoles to me in the combustion for the cities, organic waste. visioning adela and the other women come to assess the young and to put news progress. and don't hesitate to give her ahead.
1:38 am
to visit the site once a week to start the saw him and to check on the condition of the 3 couples keeps the visit brings but not so distant memories provisioning done a demo. so them, it was my 1st intel for renewal project, but it takes a lot of effort. so they will put me pleasure. you need the will power the love and the means for the month level to level it in my vision e adela encourages the young. it's up in you and promises to buy, have composed as okay, and he puts eliza full of customers. the women from we are dedicated to the cost and to helping each other a little more every day. so we had now to euro west sambas are getting hotter and hotter mainly as a result of human activities that add heat trap in greenhouse gases to the
1:39 am
atmosphere. it gets especially hot in cities compared to rural areas because groceries and from land absolve heat back to that cement breaks and all spots. so the obvious thing to do is bring us much nature into the city as possible of the start top has found uninventive way of the just that a holly building density and very little greenery are a tough thing and recipes the heat items in cities like london but this wasn't the structure, could help relieve the 7 problem. it's called invest, and it's supposed to help cool down in the surroundings. that is a, it's basically a prompting structure. and we're going to structure like a seasonable fonts. different kinds which are growing up to 10 meter within one year and providing shadow and
1:40 am
a fresh breeze in the hot summer time, especially in those areas of the cities which are affected the most by doping, roaming every few who typically call see dollars. fast scrubbing plans such as morning, glory beans and hops can provide shade and help create a better microclimate in the immediate surroundings. and clearly, the structure isn't just the support for climbing plants. the structure is, in a way constructed like a st furniture. it's like a show that you put onto a place or on the streets so the cars can stay tossed on the knees, the bicycle can go on and these people can still walk. but they can also sit and rest and move on to offer a lot of things that people can do without. but they have to immediately change the address. to the team, sit out to combine design with natural materials and functionality. the climbing plants don't just have to cool down heat on the timing tens are based on the season
1:41 am
. most likely. what we do, an ottoman is that we have is the whole bio mass. and then, depending on the local infrastructure, we can find some of the time them into comp, cost energy or bio job and but that's returning the whole is how does the bio mass into the economic decide the creators of the say it provides a quick solution to the oven hate fight and problem 10 areas where trees company planted but space is available. it was 1st shown to the 2024 london design festivals. and who knows? perhaps these structures will be popping up in other cities next summer. and tell her about again, if you will also doing your bit, tell us about it. visit our website school, send us a tweet tag doing yo bit. we share your stories. we have staying in
1:42 am
euro, but moving south to our remote island. that's a whole sport for bird vibration. hotter temperatures are also having a major effect on the migratory patterns of birds. combined with factors such as sea level rise is becoming harder for them to nest and find foods of that poses a server threats to the survival. because but also says that these 2 environmental conditions, they have a lot to teach scientists about climate change and how to adapt to it. of the, these beds migrating south to escape the cold european winter. they were fuel and the greek island designed to keep their before crossing the mediterranean. and mister hara, on their journey to africa, researches christmas. bob, brutus is observing that migrate 3 birds on this top of the key coordinates the annual bud census on the island says success today with my visit
1:43 am
on may not eh, yeah, not zoom that be fine. basically, we're collecting data to identify possible population changes in migrate to reboot on potential for us, for man. happiness. cutting this guy. characteristically, there was a trend that there are changes in both the numbers. and the times when the birds come side was due to the effect of climate change. a couple yeah. local to fund amended schema decide that you research has one to win this fund if and how the creatures are adapting to changing conditions. loan that migrate from the roots on the same product here will impact samantha if we have less rain, which is how can i have kind of look at that will help me less greenery unless food, which will be problematic. but uh, step to better understand the changing phlegmatic conditions and how migrate 3 patents of goods reflect them. researches use net to catch them along the routes
1:44 am
. dual increased often these colleagues on tangled beds from the nets for examinations. it was a sort of between the researches count them, measure them, waive them, and then don't 19.7 and 19.7 and then they put a ring on them. female black, i'm getting number is a leafy branding is really important because it's the only way that we can track the small songbirds where they're going and when they're coming back to our countries. and that's because they're too small to put a gps tag on, which is what we use for the larger birds to track their movements. so instead we put a band on, it has a 9 digit code, and when it gets caught by another research station, we can tell how long it took to get there. we can tell where they're traveling to. and also, even if that band doesn't get record,
1:45 am
we get information on the number of spacing. the data collected allows the researches to determine the stability of the populations. and they can also keep a close eye on the arrival and departure time's of the birds. migratory species or either adapting to climate change and coming earlier or they're not and they're going to suffer because of it. and it's actually happening differently for different species. so we can tell if the species are coming earlier. if we've been doing these research stations for decades, and then we can prioritize our efforts to protect them and help their recovery in, in climate change and in the future. the switch on, on the island is just a pit stop the bad. that it did sound in the spring, the research is will return to see how much conditions have changed. i'm holding the tip adapted so they might help them on the journeys in years to come
1:46 am
back to african. now, international trade has been around for centuries, but globalization has seen it go into overdrive. the upside. a lot more choice, inflexible price is but the problem is shipping goods around the world takes heavy, told on the environment. so is it really both states in the end, on that support come from egypt, we need a pharma who's found the clip alternative to important animal feeds at 10 the problem into an opportunity. a solar is an invasive plant on the surface of it. that's hardly a good thing, but besides growing extremely quickly, as all it contains a lot of protein, which makes it ideal animal photo, it hasn't quote on as a feed cross. so far, mohammed up they'll top up when you discover the plump by chance on youtube. while looking for cheaper ways of feeding his household animals. how did they know
1:47 am
happiness? tell them that if we use the results of feed capital, we can save an average of 60 to 70 percent of the feed costs for policy. you can save an average of 40 to 60 percent based on the but i had the 15 for me. i'm gonna clean with a lot of has a lot of thought and i know how to 7 years ago, how many adults, how well began studying and then planting as all a to feed his domestic life, start with it. and soon after he started sending it to others, how many it has since decided to become a full time? that's all a fun pioneer. he grades the plants and several large tanks with a total area of 300 square meters. the middle class starts at about 7 years ago with a very small from now we have a number of as all the nurseries on the sick. and i'm going to spread the idea around agents helping to grow the plant on $358.00 because most egyptian farm is like abdullah ali, feed the animals on grain and slowly. but the country now imports about half of its grain and 90 percent of its story. and the war in ukraine has also further pushed
1:48 am
up prices. putting pressure on many farm is trying to find out what's going on. $300.00 kilos used to cost as almost nothing. but now they cost a lot. today's price is 15021800 years or less than most of i do, but my income has been increased. so i don't make a profit on that, as all is much cheaper. and currently the simple, if this war to nearby is all you need then is fun and sometimes some fos for us to act as a fertilizer. the aquatic fund was long cultivated elsewhere. for example, in peru or rain royce funds in china, but the technique is largely died out. mohammed of delta while is using molten means to spread the word in egypt. so i missed missed with a couple. it's in the 1st people where i didn't know what to do with my heart is in
1:49 am
the 7th, and then i started using social media over i uploaded videos of my channels, showing me is all a planned in poetry, eating it today over the, in that 9 detention and people came to see it for themselves. i showed them in the plant and the chickens. then people started to accept the idea and you up with a, a button. had been name is that it is time to produce some $600.00 kilos each day. and he has plenty of customers x, but say that the client can also play an important role in the environment. a computer if i were to provide its own nutrients. and i have both types of blue green algae grows with his own on that island. it absorbs nitrogen from me and transforms it into organic nitrogen that feeds the plant and welcome it also has and so sine instead of look as antioxidants, and it's a source of it to mean a which increases the plants nutritional value of it. then it comes to the 70 right . that's all. it has also cool eviction agricultural researches. these
1:50 am
university graduates are producing power that as on the feet and hope the plant can help farmers to become more independent in other ways. the we want to have a social and environmental engine. he cannot make impact. i teach farms within photo i london water with relatively high solemnity, levels of how to grow the is all a plant in middle of by the hospice from them. and they'll have a decent source of income for the for the ones that are in the meantime, mohammed upto co op has found another application for surfaces solar. it works well . there's no chemical road to long something so you've done the next cause buses and motor bikes. a bad for the environment. that's no citrate. that manufacturers and they do intensive damage. i me to as of couple of diet sides of howard vainly by force feels by far the largest contribution to global warming and
1:51 am
also used the engine oil but gets licked or dumped. is a serious pull you sense what the kind that means the recycled rece. these are doing right from used oil, and this is moses being go as a company kind of used to just to probably the oil. been simple as cuz you're giving your coffee to kind of give me these kind of don't to be a trickle black. because it realized that it was the value book directly. we know recycled oil. we've learned it doesn't simply lose its usefulness because it becomes contaminated. we clean it up and restore it for reuse, allowing the cycle to continue. buck recycling with for use of cleats of the missing business. but it's worth it because you took a small business and now in place 3 people the regular visits,
1:52 am
some 50 shops in compiler to collect to use boy of your model wouldn't be able to give away when i draw used oil, for instance, from a diesel engine i store it carefully and earn money from it to meet some of my other needs. i've had the mechanics used to just pull it away before they realized it was a valuable resource. so enough, we can't just throw away oil, the coolant or hydraulic fluids. right now, what do i walk i sent was this is vin gogh, now recycle someone's housing because of use for the month. that's and what of the chief contaminants keeps the use of fust. so if a part then adds various, give me cause like sofa to remove the dust and other parts because of the way you do you. what can i do with this is what used oil looks like
1:53 am
black, as you can see within the site quoting, and this is what we recycle to achieve a clearer product known as the base oil. that's one of us. it's called the base for a reason based on the way many lubricants are made from this base oil. so now once used this clear, oil turns into dirty oil again, which we recycle back into base and the cycle continues to go to the 2 degrees. i quoted you to continue last. recycling allows into risk. you some sense of the always from the key a base for you. that's the gains we could use it. we've got to in time single sales to car repair, shops, income, part of the 20 percent. that's leftover is peach black. it's between i do for producing as far as between us supplies and number of businesses in the company to with the product being surprisingly good for him and for the environment. in many of the contents she's useful or i think just means of being described to putting
1:54 am
things. so you don't know if i'll be guest q. what like victoria is not from compiler. and this is where most of the country is drinking. what comes from much of both in charge, from the seats. every major problem here of the oil pollution is clearly visible. the drainage system is also blighted. in recent, she has been mentioned a cost for preparing drinking water has doubled to about 2200000000. uganda shillings that's around 570000 use in months. so what sources are getting increasingly for you to getting import polluted by a storm that i'm getting polluted by, boiler, disposable or you so so polluted by industrial, with the average cost, chemical cost to put it in water is 2300000000 every month because a very, very high cost and final walk that it had not to transmit this close to the people
1:55 am
. each fluid change generate some 5, the types of used oil. and that's 10.10 minutes. about 3700000 liters of fresh water. according to the united states environment protection agency. so if we were site could lead to pounds, we divide you when, when you were mechanics used to discard or without thinking about it, but i'm glad they no longer do. it helps protect the environment. i also created jobs by hiring people to collect the oil from various sources and my product directly benefits the same people who supply the used oil. yeah, i bought it for you. that's all for today would love to hear what you think about the show. so feel free to reach out to us on a cool a d, w dot com. you can also find voice virus star is by searching for eco africa online . thanks for watching for now it's good bye from me crystal and illegals nigeria. see you next time
1:56 am
the, the, the
1:57 am
hobby gets elemental, a souvenir, or b. c conservation is conservation signing for itself. rich people pushing endangered animals. why is this allowed and is benefiting from it? shot a trophy hunting in 15 minutes on the w. sure
1:58 am
. yeah. well, most successful car insurance not taking herself too seriously. makes me afraid in the mail. a rev. in 19 minutes on d w. the bluetooth his dream was within reach. she'd become a star in turkey overnight. then a man took everything from her with the help of his family and music. she rebuilt and then her sister also became a family scholar by hatred and mother and the daughters i in room to work for

change. so i will sing my song. maybe my voice will be heard seeking justice for the victims of genocide starts november 21st on d w. what do you see? it really is possible to reverse each researchers and scientists all over the world. for a no race against time. they are peers and rivals with one daring goals to help smart nature, the more likes watching it. on youtube dw documentary, you might see me, how much can we do simultaneously? multitasking these, the modern, this because if we do too much at 180 all wrong,
2:00 am
we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage, humans and multitasking watch. now on youtube, d. w documentary the this is dw, nero's live from berlin. donald trump, i assembled his team for his 2nd presidency, immigration hardliner. tom homan is picked to oversee us border policy. trump promised mass deportations during his election campaign. also coming up because the 29 climate summit opens and as are by john with scientists, sounding the alarm about the speed of global warming. but a meaningful deal looks even more doubtful after donald trump's election by the.
