a little great idea compelling consumers to apply and get in the environment faces multiple threat, most of them off 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 awful bad situation of finding positives. i have crystal lens and legal spikes area. great to have you with us. and he has what's coming up. what the migratory birds got. tell us about climate
4:31 pm
change on the basic glass the she can be turned into high quality animals and ways to recycle used to move to our we stop the show in the democratic republic of congo. the country is the world's largest produce of minute rows, including cold bars, but 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've met to a 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
4:32 pm
of the dfcs, the geologist, is fascinated by this one underground, and then when i did this, i didn't write, says we call them comp structure assistance of assistance to display. so what is the stations where do you need a dialect? couldn't find a job in the country's mind executive 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. excluding them from the, from the process we had them to compress. she copeland cobalt. mine makes an exception because it's a sunday and grunts at the access. you know, she knows exactly where to dig through. the don't let me know how does this you're welcome. so the realization goes like this. if you follow it, if you want to find it, see how it dips and that's where it's going to go. most of just follow the shape. see most of the long. that's where it all starts. just like over there,
4:33 pm
that new. that's where you'll find. now come depaula don't say though, was ended. oprah intervals are always found together in sub fluids. the d r c has around 6000000 tons of cobalt. more than half of the welts 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 a 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 congolese are employed in the mines. most of them run by
4:34 pm
multinational especially chinese companies. so an old mine belongs to a local community, which gives you need 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 at such sights. and as i spend a whole day here, the work of lead muscles of what of workers and other plastic weeks on site. as a member of we visiting it, allow headset 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
4:35 pm
challenge is the level of necessary materials to flip back to the impacts we have in the future. duration 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 recycling 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 sat 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 assets. this is also the idea behind the women in mining organization. some of the research to ourselves. if we can't find jobs,
4:36 pm
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 saturday, 5 low in concrete examples, ecological chuckle, which the n g o trains women to produce from ash, sawdust, and create 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 also do attached by the expansion of the mines. oh, did i just say yeah. so saves a lot of boxes. we, we were vehicles 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 put off at the end. we've just discovered that this m was in the us are put to lives of when again, will i be my ma'am, you awaken me. it trimmed and reached also in and i've none of that mean to say to
4:37 pm
them, but they turn 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 the immediate he sees another potential market. she suggests walking together with the women going to be having trouble telling their merchandise. and we have customized. 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 need a few samples. it has to conform to our calculations concerning funding time. and when we have such a site, we propose each to our partners because yeah, i know, i know, backed in there and a rounding of had a is an appointment with another member of the women in mining group who has recently started producing conflicts near the combustion for the cities, organic waste, visioning, adela and the other women come to assess the young and to put in use progress. and
4:38 pm
don't hesitate to give her a head to visit the site once a week to start the saw him and to check on the condition of the 3 come forth tips the visit brings but not so distant memories for vision it. i've done a demo. so them, it was my 1st and up in your project, but it takes a lot of effort. so they will put me pleasure. you need the will paula, the love, and the mean for the month. love alone. taylor, move it in my vision e adela encourages the young it's up in you and promises to buy have compost 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. i'm, as we had now to euro west sambas are getting hotter and how to mentally as a result of human activities that add heat trap in greenhouse gases to the optimist
4:39 pm
where 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 smarts and they tie into the city as possible on the start top has found an inventive way of the just that or uh, probably building density on very little greenery. all right, perfect and recipes. i hate all islands in cities like london, but this wasn't the structure, could help relieve the 7 problem. it's called yvette and i suppose to help cool down in the surroundings is, is basically a planting structure in vehicle in this structure like a season of, of funds. different kinds which are growing up to 10 minutes or within one year and providing shadow and a fresh breeze in the hot summer
4:40 pm
time, especially in those areas of the cities which are affected the most by doping, roaming every to who typically call, he thoughtless, fast scrubbing plans such as morning glory beings 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 street furniture. it's like a show that you put onto a place or in the streets so the cars can stay at, toss on the knees, the bicycle can go on and these people can stay and walk. but they can also sit and rest and move on to offer a lot of things that people can do without that they have to immediately change that. have its team sit out to combine design with natural materials and functionality. the climbing plants don't just have to cool down heat on these
4:41 pm
timing tens are based on the season. most likely. what we do an ottoman is that we have is the whole bio mass and then depending on the loca, infrastructure, we can find some of the time them into comp, cost energy or is bio chop. and but that's 3 to on the whole. or how does the bio mass into the economic side, the creators of the say it provides a quick solution to the oven heat 5 and problem 10 areas where trees come be planted, but space is available. it was 1st shown in 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 tank, doing your bids. we share your stories.
4:42 pm
we have staying in euro, but moving south to a remote island. that's a whole sport for bird vibration. hotter temperatures are also heavy. the midway effect on the migratory parsons 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. what because birds are so sensitive to 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
4:43 pm
says the guess today with my visit 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 threats 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 from was due to the effect of climate change. a couple yeah. local to an amended schema, decide that you research has one to win this fund. if and how the creatures are adapting to changing conditions long that migrate from the roots on the same product here will impact samantha if we have less rain, which is how can i to kind of look up that will help me less greenery unless food, which will be problematic, but it's uh, stopping to better understand the changing phlegmatic conditions and how migrate. 3 patents of goods reflect them. researches use net to catch them along that routes
4:44 pm
at dorm kristof and these colleagues on tangled beds from the nets for examinations . nobody has been set to clean the researches count them, measure them, waive them, and then don't 19.7 and 19 point says and then they put a ring on them. female not got a number is a pc granting 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 toggle, which is what we used 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, we get information on the number of speaking. the data collected allows the
4:45 pm
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 bags that headed south in the spring. the research is will return to see how much conditions have changed. i'm how did the to the top to it so they might help them on the journeys in years to come
4:46 pm
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 and flexible price is, but the problem is shipping goods around the world takes heavy, told on the environment. so is it really we'll see it in the end. on next report come from egypt, we need a fama who's found the clip alternative to important animal feeds at 10 the problem into an opportunity or 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 tell us what we need to skip at the plump by chance on youtube . while looking for cheaper ways of feeding his household animals. how did they know have been disturbing that if we use the results of feed capital,
4:47 pm
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 16 for me. i mean, clearly, canada has a lot of the 7 years ago. how many adults, how well began studying and then planting as all a defeat, his domestic life stopped with it. and soon after he started sending it to others. mohammed has since decided to become a full time at the farm on pioneer t grace 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 us all the nurseries, something that we've spread, the idea around agents helping to grow the plant on 300 and $58.00 because most egyptian farm is like abdul ali feed the animals on grain and solely for the country now in ports about half of its grain and 90 percent of its story. and the
4:48 pm
war in ukraine has also further pushed up prices. putting pressure on many farm is i don't know if i like less than $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 that is much cheaper. i'm going to use this simple. if this war to nearby is all you need, then is fun and sometimes some forced for us to act as a fertilizer. the aquatic fund was long cultivated elsewhere, for example, in peru or in royce funds in china. but the technique is low, it should be died out. mohammed up delta web is using mold in means to spread the word in egypt. some on this miss with a couple it's in the 1st people where i didn't know what to do with my holidays in
4:49 pm
the 7th. and then i started using social media. i was, i uploaded the videos of my channel showing me is all a blonde and poetry eating it today over the and it's about 9 detention. and people came to see it for themselves. i showed them in the plant, i'm the chickens. when people started to accept the idea and you up with a, a button had been named who's trying to produce some 600 kilos each day. and he has plenty of customers ex. but say that the plant can also play an important role in the environment. a computer if i want to provide its own nutrients mission, i a full look, a type of blue green algae grows with his own on that island. it absorbs nitrogen from the at and transforms it into organic nitrogen that feeds the plunge and welcome. it also has an co sign instead of look as antioxidants, and it's a source of victim in a which increases the plants nutrition value. we tend to come to this every rad.
4:50 pm
that's all. it has also cool eviction agricultural researches. these university graduates are producing power that as on the feet and hope the plant can help pharmacy to become more independent in other ways. the we want to have a social and environmental and economic impact. i teach farms within photo i london water with relatively high solidity 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. in the meantime, mohammed opt old 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 energy intensive damage i, me to, as of couple of die resides an up powered valley by force. it feels by far the largest contribution to global warming and also used the engine oil that gets
4:51 pm
licked or dumped. is a serious pull you sense. but the kind that leaves the recycling rece. these are dinning 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 those to be a trickle black. because it realized that it was the while you book directly, we now recycle 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, well i think it was beautifully small business. a 1000000 plus 3 people, the regular visits, some 50 shots and compiler to collect used oil your
4:52 pm
model with them together when, 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 thought the mechanics used to just pour it away before they realized it was a valuable resource, and now we can't just throw away oil, the coolant or hydraulic fluids. right now or 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 seats? we use the 1st. so the eva part then it's various chemicals like sofa to remove the dust and other parts. of course, of the for you do you, are you doing? what can i do with the, this is what used oil looks like the black,
4:53 pm
as you can see within the site quoting. and this is what we recycle to achieve a clearer product known as the base oil. it's called base for a reason based on the way many lubricants are made from this base oil, but it does not. once used this clear, oil turns into dirty oil. again, which we recycle back into base, and the cycle continues to go to 2 degrees. i quoted you the quote to you was recycling allows into risk. you some estimates of the o if somebody could be a base for you. that's the gains we could use is he's got to in time single sales to probably be a shop seen composite the 20 percent that's leftovers. each block. it's between idea of for producing i suppose, between us supplies the number of businesses in the company to with the product being surprised include for him and for the environment in many african countries. useful, or i think just means of being described to producing soil,
4:54 pm
identify the gift q, what to make victories, notes from compiler. and this is where most of the country is drinking, what comes from much of boats in charge from the seats. every major problem here. the old police ship is clearly visible. the drainage system is also blighted in re, since she has been met at a cost for preparing drinking water has doubled to about $2200000000.00. you've done the shootings. that's around $570000.00 us a month. so what passes 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. use 2300000000 every month because a very, very high cost and find a lot better how not to consummate this close to the people. each fluid change
4:55 pm
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 we went mechanics used to discard oil 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 about it's good bye from me crystal eggs, illegals nigeria, see you. next time. the the
