11:32 am
of the these young women of training to become experts and lead to employment resilience and environmental protection. trainer to a need to but very i knows that as the climate crisis continues, people will need to adapt. a new policies will have to be put in place. 7 the so as that that he had to do, we, i really just creating strategies to be included in this policies. so every time they exclude the argument and goes, every time to exclude we make, it means we're not getting the real people that need to be at the center of the table. because everyone's using energy. we cannot invite men to discuss energy because women are the ones using energy every day. they know the entire jenny or
11:33 am
them collect to fire, which to making food and all the different actually does that come with this? here is it's education hub outside ginger goes for climate action, teaches women and marginalized groups, practical skills for climate resilience. shanina teasing, learned how to make an eco friendly stove from natural materials. now she policies on her knowledge jemina joined the program at 16 after she became pregnant and had to leave school as well as the stove. she also learned to make 3 kits from biodegradable waste as an alternative to firewood. she ends in additional income selling the phenomenon zone. why have beneficially does an individual that it doesn't cost me any money to make them break at any time when they will know the brick happens? so for the equivalent of $3.00 euro cents each. okay, so i sell 10 briquettes besetti euro cents. i benefits a low mile from them. i also billed the stove for people and they give me money. so

11:35 am
a hub with a clean flame with no smoke or set. so when they come home to me, i looked at the solid remains left in the buyers i just to convey to be used to specialize as the seedlings and crops on the field. that's a good yield. also requires efficient irrigation and enough rain which has become an increasing the unpredictable fact to in recent years. that's why goes full climate action also teaches people how to construct a router harvesting time. which can of a lifeline in times of drought or lorayne. some established which is to say is in the area can be a health hazard because some fact trees close to didn't to discharge does he will to, into the environments this water source and little further down the valley is probably affected by the pollution still local people drove water from it because it's that right and the source goes for climate action and other civil rights groups,

11:43 am
a lush green, small and dense. this 200 square meter, verdant patch, outside of cape town, is a pocket forest and a waist, as in the midst of a built environment, serving a purpose for both nature and humans. we planted 3 threes per square meter over here. this is what we're finding of photos of the 2000 years, you know, so we trying to really speed up the process cuz this would take thousands of years to naturally phone using the milwaukee method to plant puckered for us. it's a great way to boost biodiversity and restore ecosystems in urban areas. the milwaukee method, it started in the 19 seventy's in japan at yokohama university by don't talk, you know, i mean, i'll walk you and you came up with this method with you. so in japan, rapid open i zation taking place in the green spaces, disappearing, city really falls, planting native trees and the most diverse species possible in the tiny forest can
11:44 am
help build climate resilience and create community wellbeing and urbanized areas. the sites for pocket, for a start chosen carefully, their social and historical significance are also taken into account. this product is in that condition of 1st nations people. because this is beside the way, the 1st nations people use to live freely before they meeting with the portuguese and with a doctor set list. a one time jo, dean, has team dump with assumed the project, a group that helps to plan pocket forest all over the world and bring nature back to where it's missing. so many people, it's very hard to access. the natural in vitamins of the mountains may take them one hour to 2 hours just to reach the so we bring this forest closer to people and it's really become a space to boost mental health and mental well being and very rough fabrics. so
11:45 am
society, the suki project, his health plan more than $200.00 pockets for us and 50 cities around the world. and keep till now has 5 of them day by day, the more by the city that you're seeing and coding to the photos to the most orders we are getting from community members. it's really bothering us to keep going forward with calories and creating prophets for us in south africa. a glance in moultrie is on cleaning up a c. t's helps wildlife to flowers, but mold in live impacts wide life in other ways to noises. see these red lights on airplane spa lines. do all post problems for birds and animals requesting all to spring, europe's largest wildlife clinic seas many casualties, and they do more than just fruits the outpatient. now the feathery friend rescued tanks, the natural channel, denies the castro back to health. in
11:46 am
a spanish want line clinic, the voted prey had flown into a fence and injured its leg off to being tact. it'll be released to be on michael. and he thought, yeah, you, that the list was not even releasing them into the wildest, the most beautiful, along with that just gets along some fall by the way, side of the book. all of us here do our best to ensure as many animals as possible . combined survive, but uh, but uh, if they, if they present that home in the we in my honda on the, on the outskirts of madrid. visiting your laundry is wildlife patch and right clinic in just one year. 6500 native animals were treated in protein by hikers, old foresters, mainly funds, but also ramp tiles and the on pointing model please baby was always found roaming around long enough to hunt. most likely its
11:47 am
mother was shot while bulls not protected. in fact, several places have problems with population control. still, they will train the little squeak. there's been a lot of the time we might release this animal in a hunting reserved word might migrate to an area where hunting is allowed, but it can survive. we don't decide which animals can be shocked and which cannot. but in this facility, every one gets a chance. that's what the oh, given the sentence defends a little bit. i see on another team examines and eagle out the bag with shot. one of its eyes had to be removed but the vent fernando gonzales is confident that it can be released back into the wild laughter or house on the tunnel and rely mainly on that. hearing
11:48 am
a lot, obviously on conflict. on 1st examination, we discovered that he had been hit several times once in the i totally forgot that unfortunately we see quite a lot of this here take on that myself too many protected animals being shot out of the hill just in case one of the like a whole bunch of price, eco owls, unprotected in spain, and must be hunted out of it's an environmental crime and that's how we deal with it. we perform autopsies and report to the authorities. so defense can be legally pursued. good thing is how do you estimate how these griffin vulture didn't make it? it did have power. line your hand, the lopez finds the via bones on it. we even electrocution like this are treated as criminal offenses known as accidents. energy companies must take action.
11:49 am
what are the you see unfortunately, this happens quite often in the, although we actively search for dangerous spots as being energy companies to better insulate their power lines that will see birds keep dying different when that especially the big ones outside of the skate. some animals have to stay here so good with severe injuries, they wouldn't stand a chance in the wild on like nachos castro's which is ready to leave the clinic and show off its abilities in the wild pool. they say you don't see anything. it can fly over a 100 kilometers per hour, but it's had stay steady. if it didn't say it wouldn't be able to handle the fatal look, it's had all waiting to stay still. with us again, i studied the time has almost come, a thrill that never gets old for nacho and his colleagues know,
11:50 am
seem pretty similar to the touch is you're not quite get anymore. no matter the animal feed, inconspicuous or even majestic there, it's always something specialist and we'll see. and finally, the moment to truth, the effects for the castro. so once again, the now it's not just wildlife or land that suffering plastic waste. it's a huge problem all over the world and even the oceans of the field with its the mediterranean is especially bad with an estimated 2800000 tons of plastic waste. tiny plastic goes and up in fish and ultimately enough to we had melting egypt, which boulders the mediterranean, a social enterprise is driving a clean up there with the help of some on like lights, the mohammed moods
11:51 am
a k, a newly set self on his fishing boat from the egyptian port city of alexandria, at the end of the day his net swept before with fish. though his catch of the day will be garbage. no, which has an eye benefit. my son is fish. and when i clean the sea for them, the, those who heads out tough to me will find more fish. it's about why that sounds like his father literally is a fisherman and he's being costing his nets off the coast here for over 25 years. the huge amount of waste accumulating in the sea he calls home prompted to lead to take action over the country looks at me and we used to make more money on the fishing ground, all the place buying. we'd sail for half an hour to find fish. now it takes 5 to 7 hours, which costs us money and the floating rubbish she's threatening marine life and the likelihood sufficient and marine waste is a problem in the old $22.00 mediterranean countries. every day 30 to 40 truckloads
11:52 am
of plastic waste dumped into that see the egypt is one of the major pollutants of the mediterranean, said the problem is particularly bad here. in lowering the fisherman used to dispose of that trash by scrubbing it into the sea. now we collect some use nets from them when they see the project and how it's implemented, they're excited. don't want to contribute because i own the original project mediterranean clean up, started here in greece, and was noticed by the social enterprise and alaya. its mission is to promote sustainable fishing methods and to reduce marine pollution work increased with more than $1200.00. and one of them you come to those people from me to and they were telling me over that list are these, we really need to discuss things. so like one of the how you handle as physically
11:53 am
and alaya extended its mission for a clean mediterranean to egypt. with the project in alexandria, overseen by magazine, convincing the fisherman to catch waste instead of fish was anything but easy. it had the side of the ottoman the knock. the challenges included the fisherman themselves, which gave literally a key role. that means you're not a keeper since a loony muscle in an hour. he understands the issue and is well aware of the community. he started to talk to them in a different way and the mom was 2nd of november. now around a 100 fishermen are involved and that number's a growing since the project started in may 2023. they've collected more than a 100 tons of waste off the coast of alexandria for some dealing with marine waste has become a full time commitment for service. oh awesome. which is productive to what with the fishermen, i collect the ghost nets for recycling and at the same time i presented the wealth of marine life. both of these ghosts nets and deb we collected from the sea,
11:54 am
transformed into something new and reciting facilities that processed and turned into rule material for plastic products, ropes and into looking tiles shut off and falls back on the machine. that's of course have the prophecy of sticking to thing, which makes that treatment. so recycling expend or let's say that it was still able to make an excellent and viewable final product. we're a strong competitor in the market, and we can cover up production costs. so that was nice. and the last says that 58 percent of the waste it collects is recycled. impact and the facilities doesn't tend up in the city again. still a lot needs to be done to prevent waste from ending up in the sea in the 1st place . until then, the fisherman, like literally, will have to continue trolling for garbage and that efforts have inspired them to make their own waste fishing. net mean show us the special,
11:55 am
much like to net. so we not competing with all fishermen. friends. that doesn't mean with that 3 times a week, literally set sail not to catch fish, but to collect up to 300 kilos of golf age, hoping to inspire others to keep the sea clean. what a great job they're doing that it's time to say good bye. now we really hope you have been inspired to change your world to get others involved too. if you have do, let us know at echo i did w dot com, we love hearing from you. i'm, i'm on mac one day in the sock a. see you next time. and i am chris, the lives in lake ghost nigeria. if you'd like to watch both clifton stories, just search for eco offer got online. you'll find lots of content. join us again next time. the
