w. w. hello and welcome to the latest episode of africa this is. coming to you from the fossil park in lagos nigeria and if you ever wanted to know how you can make a difference in be environment stay tuned ok with me is my charming colleague from south africa for lucia i know there hi everyone my name is felicia industry and i'm joining you guys from johannesburg this week you can learn about how women in kenya are fighting for elephants and that's not all also coming up. a man who is bringing food from south africa she has. an organization in cameroon teaching people how to use water responsibly. and after forming in madagascar and how it's moving to new livelihoods. mama tembo means mother elephant in swahili it's also an affectionate term some border women call each other and they mean it literally some of them track the animals and do what they can to keep corridos free for them to move about that helps keep the elephants safe from harm but also ensures that both humans and animals have enough access to scarce resources like water. it's early in the morning in some way to come to kenya boitano is taking her family's animals out to the grazing fields but that's just one job she'll do today . as a few accessories for her next job as a wildlife conservation insist. she used to lead over women group popularly known as mama timbales mother of elephants their task is to monitor the movements of the big animals. at 5 am i do my chores and then get my children ready for school at 8 am i pick up my data forms and the g.p.s. and walk to the wildlife corrido we don't just observe elephants but the other animals to. get to the elephants are still their primary interest the paki dams are endangered in kenya alone between the early 1970 s. and 1000 nineties their numbers dropped 90 percent but here in the columb a community wildlife conservancy numbers are now increasing one reason is that pack have identified and signposted what life and lifestyle corridos elephants often pass through the area but left the cards alone use the route they can lead to conflicts their mama timbo take note of where animals tend to congregate as well as any trace of illegal settlements or traps set by poachers antelope trucks and animal conservation organization has provided the women with g.p.s. devices and data sheets the fact that antelope came through here is a good sign an elephant is just an umbrella species as a big animal and if an elephant has enough space to survive enough space to whom around. no doubt other small animals will go under a fence and this is why we it's been elephant and also the data that we have it coming from elephant. things are quiet today but that doesn't mean the women aren't on the lookout they want to protect wild animals but they also have to watch out for themselves. well i know my dog a wild animals add dangerous we have lions elephants and other dangerous animals and been i do feel anxious as i walk you can run across animals at any time and we don't even know what to do to save our lives these are the challenges and don't worry at all it was. another source of worry is porches the conservancy collects the skull of slaughtered animals but they are finding fewer and fewer. life has become a little more secure for the majestic beasts sounds to the presence of drink just. because someone is in fact. of creating a commodious whatever disposal areas. are in a very secure environment. because security is assured. is a constant. just bottle. and there they are an entire herd with a drop in portraying they have become more relaxed in the presence of people. from a journal we have discovered that the elephant is a friend here anymore and this has also helps the community because the only moves have now become very social in the past the wouldn't pass new homes because every time they passed the would be killed but nowadays they passed new homes without any human interference. in the evening and returns to her foster job a family depends on the small son she receives from one litter in the elephants is a welcome extra income but contributing to the protection of the elephants is only one of the little fellow. maybe you've heard of a plant called chia that comes from central and south america now more and more farmers here in south africa have begun pointing at us well for them it's not just the business opportunity promising good returns the plant is also easy to cultivate and it's seeds are packed with protein and this week's doing a bit we introduce a man who had a great idea. according to legend the ancient mayans used the seeds as a source of energy. they gave them the name chia meaning strength. today people use chia seeds to our proteins and bittermann is to your goods and cereals. martin tough from denmark thinks the seed can serve as a nutritional mia one it's own. it also grows well in our drazen serve africa. to finish in 2017 the 2nd year of a terrible drought in africa 98 great farm most planted 50 kilos of seed we brought to them in our suit cases all succeeded at growing chia. chia. encouraged by that success toft now raises money to provide seeds to thousands of farmers in africa. for free. like them. if you're also doing your job you tell us about. visit our website or send us a tweet. do you. share your story. let's stick with farming for the moment while we move north to gonna like other small scale farmers in africa they have a problem marketing their products because they often just don't have the right contacts or enough financial supports in the end that leads to food wastage because it spoils before it can be sold that's how it was until recently but then through young men and i had an idea for digital platform there was the farmers all over gonna. be a production foster even ones who live in remote areas is the idea working let's have a look. caroming a small community in northern ghana. farmer joshua tangay used to struggle to sell his progeny useful but now he earns enough to support his wife and 2 children thanks to a digital platform he's able to sell the fruits of his labor on a regular basis and at a fair price. there's my farm about one and a half it gets. hard here bob all at blunting green bear bear and vegetables 6. it is dry season over here and i just finished have as done my maize . and rice and i sold it out to santa and their payment was done right on my my my phone through mobile money. gone as capital acra this is where the digital platform is based that has helped to make just his life so much easier. agra center is an agri tech startup that connects rural farmers with big buyers the company takes up to 30 percent commission from those buyers it's in agra centers own interest to get the best possible prices meaning the small holders also profit. so far we've had about close to $10000.00 farmers for this from the platform now before that they were making less money now i would trade has helped them to increase the income tremendously so the farmers they love us you know that number back in caroming agro center agents are visiting the village. here to teach the farmers not only how to use the check market prices but also how to maximize their output environment we give elian sees and will make sure that we take them through all the activities that they need to know and hire you or you will do you realize that most families do a lot of trial and in production and also when they got their green. libby didn't pay much attention to rate their care little about where to eat how to drive ate. and because of that they ran into spoilage and they don't get that market. she's the agents create profiles of interested farmers what they farm how much they produce the company was founded in 2016 now agra sent to operates in 15 communities in 4 different regions in the nearby town of boulder tangere the startup has an office where the farmers data a process the platform also provides tips on how to farm more effectively. before we didn't know. much of their farming practices that were right for us tanks like our fabulous application. haha that then the. storage and all those things where very difficult for us and more importantly how to have sold out our produce was a major challenge. this is agro centers regional storage center from here the farmers produce is sold to big food buyers earlier the farmers had to sell their produce to local middlemen often for a 3rd of its real value. the digital platform has helped the farmers to increase their income by about 25 percent. if i move on said to me what happens far as i want to sell at fair market prices and the final is a fair market price is too good with money to be able to take all your family to even reinvest a portion of your farm. joshua tangere is not worried that he now depends on a virtual broker for him the benefits of very real. in our next report we take a trip to a german junkyard it might look a bit different from junkyards in nigeria well here it's a place where people try to recycle as much as possible some german cities and forcing bans on diesel vehicles under government there has been paying a premium on scrapped diesel cars that means that there are some wonderful auto parts to be had let's go over that. 70000 square meters of metal waiting to be scrapped the more than 2 and a half 1000 cars here have been discarded by their owners like this volkswagen the owner of the passat diesel is here to scrap it. in the aftermath of the v.w. use diesel emissions scandal because secondhand value has dropped to just a 1000 euros a scrapping premium will net him around 7000. still works perfectly just past its inspection but often at least a new car so this one can go to. the junkyard will even pay him something for the used parts that give you 100 euros enough for a nice meal that's on top of the scrapping premium of up to 10000 euros that some comic has ground as a discount when drivers scrap their old diesel car and buy only a new environmentally friendly a one. components like the engine are removed and later sold well at least they're being we cycled. through. growing pains me because a car like this one it's only got 47000 kilometers on it if it's so clean it can still be on the road for years it works perfectly. that's not exactly saving resources. after it's been disassembled in the 1st workshop the car is taken to the colleague in the next one usable tires are also kept for every sale. old oil left over fuel cleaning fluid and coolant it's all disposed of. now the cars are placed out in the junkyard for customers in search of parts about $500.00 hobby mechanics come here every day for components. car in maybe new was lucky he found the back door he needed for a b.m.w. in togo. like this was stolen from my brother. so i promised him i'd look for it here. at the junkyard clients pay only 20 to 30 percent of the price for a new part under my couch for today. the simple. german drivers own an average of 11 cars in their lifetime that manufacture is a cut something environment but the salvage work here helps improve the industry's recycling balance somewhat. at the end of the day it's time for the road where the white v.w. to be taken apart it's then dumped in the yard to be further devoured by the park minus. from the german junkyard back to the roads of africa where washing cars and other things of course will wish to a lot of water as our next report will show but 2 young men started on these asian that tries to raise awareness of people about the value of water and take a look for heroes this week oh. in many parts of come iran's capital young water is often was didn't necessarily but habits are common in many households ses mark and the 32 year old who wants for the energy or water heart. would feel like they've moved a little bit more difficult to go. bomb control if you're washing your plates and letting the water run that you're wasting water so it's a question of being able to wash your plates or clothes in the right ways or telling the children at home to be more careful with water duplicity really. the association seeks to teach simple ways to save the precious resource. finding greenwood's has asked friends like matter of present what i heard out in the field . we are going to our households now we go door to door to raise awareness in the population is even knowledge which travels from the federal set up the association nearly 2 years ago every day he works to encourage people to use water more efficiently. this is rainwater when informs you collect it in basins yes exactly and this is tap water drinking water this is where we put our major result. over in the attempts to educate people on how to get water wastage faddle and his colleagues often become involved in exchanges like these sometimes they go on for hours people are generally receptive to the advice he says but there are many reasons why 7 water isn't easy for people in this neighborhood for example don't even have a regular supply. something we're so happy simply when the water starts flowing because it's not always the case you have to understand. to help with the energy always feels activities 5 bill has introduced a line of cloth thing called mr portable 3 months after the brand was launched it sold 5000 articles of clothing mr portable is proving popular with young people 30 percent of profits are earmarked for the associations activities. this is where we produce all our mr portable plugs when a customer places the order we send it directly here one. model and placed her order 2 days ago via what's up all she had to do was choose the color and patterns for the t. shirt she wants faddle text the opportunity to explain to her the environmental cause behind the fashion statement. he's still say received this shirts i've learnt a lot about what is behind this logo things that i didn't know before. and so. in addition to raising awareness the what a heart association advocates for access to water for all by promoting the development of water points like in the air to the district where fighting his friends have repaired a well that has changed the lives of the thousands of people who live in this neighborhood. full of garden low to get water will still have to go very far to get to the spring there is a river flowing down here and the stream there is where we used to want our. big efforts have been made to make the drinking water point attractive for ideal believes that with the better planning it should even be possible to optimize water distribution to individual households in the district. i fear the water flows all day and night there's water all the time i asked myself can we find a way to channel the ward. that comes out here so far i don't know maybe we could build something to hold it or create a reserve one where we can still water more prominently. drinking water for all that's the idea of the height of the water had to association and the energy or hopes to soon extend its activities beyond coming on board the. now we take it to madagascar fresh stocks have been on the decline for a long time in local coastal waters but in remote bay in the country's south the people there may have found an alternative say cooking. the marine animals are very popular with chinese go maize who are willing to pay high prices for them our reporter headed to madagascar to meet local aqua farmers and face the fear challenges on the way. it's midnight one kilometer off the coast of madagascar. the aqua farmers of temple over there signing in as they head out to their sea cucumber pens. it's only during a full moon or a new moon that the water is shallow enough for the aqua farmers to go and count their stocks and harvest mature specimens during the day the leathery a kind of germs bury themselves in the sand the farmers have to come out every 2 weeks because the stocks are vulnerable to disease and theft. and the ngo blue ventures helped the village set up their farms about 10 years ago what its employees weigh the sea cucumber to make sure they meet the 400 gram threshold required to send them to market. 112 like 270. the biggest. news of all no there are rules safeguarding the hatcheries we work things out with the breeders. for example it's forbidden to enter the pens of other farmers without that consent all fishing is also forbidden except for crayfish you are allowed to catch them because they feed on the sea cucumber as. these rules are designed to protect the sea. was a local democracy it was all martin. before the aqua farms were set up over fishing had depleted stocks in the bay of assassins. today this once again a wide variety of fish along with snails and crabs although 70 percent of people in the country live below the poverty line this village is experion. and sing a certain degree of prosperity. what. madame seraphin was one of the 1st to start farming in 2009. before the c.q. come to france i have no way to improve my standard of living. and. setting up my own pen i've earned enough to send my 2 children to school. so that we can. and i've been able to buy some nice and useful things for my house and i also have a herd of goats now. feed. during the day when the sea cucumbers have buried themselves deep in the sand the farmers come out to clean the enclosures. catherine taylor is one of only a small number of scientists who study c q cumbers. it's a pretty special creature. that they're farming here and it's really valuable on the international market and so bringing it into a community like this and a sustainable aquaculture kind of way makes a huge difference for the people here but at the same time it's also an animal that's vital for the ecosystem in this area it's kind of a natural filtration system for the area because it goes along just kind of hoovers up the sand and then it cleans out detritus and micro algate and bacteria and things like that. this is where they breed the animals to be raised in the bay at temple of it. will eat xiang sea cucumber costs the farmers in tampa bay $0.16 after being harvested 9 months later it's worth a $1.30 on average the aquaculture here not only pays off for the farmers but also benefits the entire bay and the other animals that live in. that's all for today i hope you enjoyed the program and maybe learn to thing or 2 i certainly did for now this is felicia n.t.s.b. signing off from joburg south africa see you next time and empty your bag goes for

w. made for mines. hello and welcome to driver that he w. motor magazine this week a picture postcard perfect party the folks wagon she meet in austria. a little toyota that can be arash g r m n. and the new jaguar x e. s. . cut to streamline washing for wonders now that his car has given up the ghost he needs a new one a nice midsize sedan but which. a mercedes c. class he thinks that somehow it's stuffy. with b.m.w. 3 series and that wouldn't be bad at all. for him. that's also a good idea but you see both of these cars on every corner in germany here what about something a bit more original something special something unique. that's. like the x e from jaguar. for the 2020 model year the british maker has given its entry level model a facelift. even though the changes work rather modest they help make the x e one of the more elegant mid-range vehicles. but i don't have standing around time for a test drive. so let's go guys. even in the 1st few meters you can tell you were sitting in a driver's car tackles the curve in style and exit it full speed ahead it's not too short and features all new x. versions come standard with an 8 speed automatic transmission think you're changes are pleasantly soft and always at the right moment. the starting price for an x e like this one is already over 43000 euros in germany . can you get a b.m.w. 3 series for as little as 38. yeah sure that's a big difference but have you ever seen a jaguar with cloth seats leather is standard here as are the electric adjustments everything already come standard so. you may have a point. other features such as 18 inch wheels l.e.d. headlights parking assistance front and rear review camera as well as lean keeping and attentiveness assistance are also standard in the new model all things that comes to a few 1000 euros extra in his predecessor. hat. and while the taxi is only jaguars entry level model in the interior the she explored sedan already offers plenty of luxury and high quality materials. you must have seen the buttons aren't real but are touch controls and you can't tell if you press them or not. that's not perfect but there's no such thing as the perfect car and otherwise it's a nice interior. test car is powered by a $184.00 kilowatt gasoline engine he actually accelerates from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 6.5 seconds and has a top speed of 250 kilometers per hour another even more powerful gasoline engine is available along with a less powerful diesel. that's it for a test drive in the jaguar x c and guys what do you say. i have to admit the design is flieger than a b.m.w. 3 series. are you. in the interior you can definitely keep up with. likes of audi when it comes to things like build quality. and well says it's definitely not as stuffy as the mercedes c. class and well it has become a bit more expensive in the new model year just over 2000 euros that includes over $4000.00 euros of standard equipment so he thinks it's worth it although. toyota is usually known for ecologically friendly fuel efficient vehicles but the japanese carmaker can also do things very differently like the jarosz g r m and it's aimed at bringing rally excitement to toyota buyers. she r m n stands for gazoo racing master says lewis or champion of an herb or great it is for toyota what m is for b.m.w. an a m g for mercedes under the hood is a 1.8 leader super charged engine that we otherwise know from the lotus elise will take a look at how much sports car there is a vision. the g.r. and is inspired by the r.'s w.r.c. with which toyota celebrated its return to the 2017 world rally championship but how much racing can fit into such a small car it turns out quite a lot starting with a new sporty chance he would torsen differential which ensures that there is always enough traction without spinning the wheels through a special exhaust system that contributes to weight reduction. lewis says with a slight way to 1135 kilograms untied suspension and nearly prevents rolling or understeer in corners it's a true curve specialist. but it's not only on curves that the g.r. and that's a good figure visually because you racing is managed to clearly differentiated from a standard yars it inherits a grill and decals from its rally counterpart another special features a ford fist in brake system. a large rear spoiler is meant to make the g r and more aerodynamic and make it look like a real sports car. the young person is roundly heritage's plain to see in the interior as sports seats give the driver and front passenger more grip and lend the g r m and sporty flair the steering wheel comes from the toyota g.t. 86 the crisp 6 speed gear shifter with metal look knob convey the feeling of sitting in a rally car. had lewis points to the marking at the top of the steering wheel which is typical for rally cars but he's not fond of the hard plastic trim and when it comes to the end for a teammate system he says it's old fashioned what he still likes here are the sports seats but the seating position is slightly raced which he doesn't think will appeal to every sports car fan. but toyota yar s.g.r. and comes with a $156.00 kilowatt $1.00 leaders super charged 4 cylinder gasoline engine. the maximum speed is electronically limited to a respectable 230 kilometers per hour the other is cost just under $30000.00 euros in germany last year when the limited edition of just $400.00 cars for all of europe went on the market one year later you still have to pay just as much. or usually one that makes the yars g.r. and then a very fast rarity on european routes. merge sameas has unveiled its 7 seats. from the outside the luxury s.u.v. looks even runnier while inside it also offers noticeably more space the 3rd row folds into the trunk floor allowing a maximum loading volume of 2040 leaders a new option is that the 2nd row seats can consist of 2 large single seats for even more comfort also new is the v. a gasoline engine as a mild hybrid or cd's couples it to an electric starter generator. and another big s.u.v. from rival it's technically and visually updated q 7 now follows the new design language of the q family. all engine options are coupled to an 8 speed tiptronic transmission and permanent all wheel drive. there are 2 diesel and one gasoline engine to choose from and mercedes mile hybrid technology is standard. all mentions consume up to 0.7 leaders less per 100 kilometers. exactly 10 years ago skoda watched the yeti and in the compact s.u.v. segment but in 2017 the czech car maker made a course correction in design and the yeti became the caracal its appearance differs significantly from that of its predecessor and is based on its words or stablemate the kodiak which launched the new design language in 2000. 16. in contrast to the yeti the karak no longer looks like an angular as u.v. and it grew significantly by 16 centimeters to a length of 4.38 meters. julian says skoda makes a strong impression when it comes to infotainment the correct makes not only the say at a take out but also the head of the pack the v.w. to go on look old if you order the optional columbus navigation device you not only have a wife i hotspot on board but also gesture control. that costs $1360.00 euros extra which technology fans are likely to be willing to pay the interior is simple and elegant even so a virtual dashboard is available. as 7 speed dual clutch transmission is standard alternatively a manual 6 speed gearbox is available. might highlighted virgilio the highlight in the skoda caracas the optional varial flex rear seat. besides forming the rear seat back he can push the entire sheet forward. vertically by removing these 2 hooks and he can take the whole sheet out completely. if you completely remove the scenes you have $180.00 leaders more load volume than with just the seat backs folded down so you get a total luggage capacity of up to $1810.00 leaders. were driving the most powerful gasoline engine the 1.5 liter 4 cylinder delivers $110.00 kilowatts the car manages to spread from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 8.6 seconds and germany in the qur'an can the highest equip unlined style starts at around $30500.00 euros. at the chilean finds the correct really comfortable all the bumps in the road are smooth the way it would know we expect an s.u.v. to be a bit higher up with a softer ride he finds this one does a really good job. s.u.v. spend most of their time on asphalt but if you let the caracas off the road that would be no problem thanks to 18 centimeters of ground clearance nor are steep slopes the current can tackle 20 degree gradients. julian sums up by saying the caracas all went all the really successful car says many times to its bigger brother kodiak but has the advantage of being more compact and much cheaper. its compactness is a big plus as specially in the city and when parking and thanks to the extreme flexibility of its back seat as still has plenty of room for thanks. b l 319 is one of the oldies among transport grants for mercedes-benz is a heritage and is proud to look back on. see these thomas councilman says the 1st transporter with the twin circuit brakes system came out in 1905 then came the safety steering column and the brake osteria but they're all. he says it was here they began to emphasize the safety of the driver when it came to load securing for the 1st time his vehicle had lashing straps and a seat belt in a cap made public there are dispraise from the front and later years abs but we know the end of the 1st sprinter which has just breaks all around and an airbag so it became more and more like a normal car. went in and last but not least here is the 1st spreader with e.s.p. . since 1995 mercedes benz larger van has borne the name sprinter currently its in its 3rd generation and can be configured in more than 700 different ways starting with front rear wheel drive and numerous body options. of course not only the technology has changed over the last few years when it comes to safety the systems have been steadily expanded and refined accident research also provides crucial data. you know doesn't proceed as you only hinder says the company regularly inspected vehicles damaged in accidents to generate insights for their further development they investigate accidents involving their rants. at the site they document the damage to look at what exactly happened see if and how the passengers were injured and they try to determine what they can change in future series and what that flow into the development and then kind of the ethical i think . the accident researchers have collected this important data since 2015 they investigate whether the safety systems were actually used in the real accident situation and just as helpful they talk to the passengers about what they have experienced. some of the assistance systems have been with the sprinter for some time for example the crossed wind assist which makes driving at higher speed safer was introduced in the last generation. other safety systems are already known from passenger cars and are now also available as options for the sprinter active brake assist is one such example as are the radar based distance an active lane assist. a new technology feature is now mainly used at low speeds the parking package with $360.00 degree cameras. is no incline today as cannot naga labor cd says it's not just convenient it's also a security feature vehicles in this class are mainly used commercially these are already professional drivers but they face many situations involving maneuvering and parking and with this view $360.00 degrees where sadie's offers the drivers and additional safety feature if i providing just the right view for every tricky driving situation he says there are several views to choose from such as a mirror view for the driver. a 180 degree front so that the driver can see crushing traffic completely there is the normal rear view but also a 180 degree you or anyone is assuming the trailer hitch with special help lines to help make cooking up a tree they're an easy as well. the new drive away assisted limits the speed to 3 kilometers per hour in the 1st few meters if an obstacle is detected thus helping prevent collisions. the exit guard monitors blind spots when leaving the vehicle and provides a visual and acoustic warning if the road is not clear. but even small changes sometimes have a big impact such as the went wiper system which is available together
