and river banks. scientists in kew use the data to generate a garbage map of german rivers and calculate how much trash ends up in the sea since 2016 more than 15000 plastic pirates from 700 schools have collected samples from all over germany. the project is now being launched in other european countries to stick was a foothold of the great advantage for science here vast amounts of data can be collected by within a very short period of time that's also what class the pirates do run the period of 2 months and within the time we normally receive hundreds of data sets we could never achieve that with our small team so that great benefit of citizen science is the amount of data that comes together. for the past 2 years the school has included the topic of recycling on the curriculum. and the teachers are happy to do their part to inspire the budding scientists. now. it's something i care about myself it always bothers me when i see people leaving rubbish behind his specially when they have small childre

he is the reason we have to humboldt basin, the humboldt river, the humboldt mountains.ventually, he is the reason we have humboldt county, california. if you want to go to the second degree of separation, he is the reason for the naming of humboldt cheese. everything on this continent, everything around the world that is named for humboldt is named for our boy alex. that means 80 features in the united states, from towns to streets to monuments to geographical features, all named for humboldt, all during his lifetime. humboldt takes notice and he will fold fremont's information into his books because fremont is out there, again, channeling his inner humboldt, taking the same kinds of measurements, exposing himself to the same dangers, reveling in the fact that he is nearly killing himself on a regular basis in emulation of his idol. and so, when fremont runs for president in 1856 on an abolitionist platform when the republicans split from the whig party, humboldt will write a letter supporting fremont's candidacy. he will get involved in american politics. it is interes

no oxygen in the river.ine chugging] [man speaking] carl: the permafrost is defrosting, and it's not hard enough for the waves to hit. a usually when the waves hit, it just bounces off and it doesn't erode. nowads, it's just too soft and it's just breaking down the dirt on our land. [clifton speaking] [corn kernels rattling] [clucking tongue] [chickens clucking] ayakha: in the eastern cape, the majority of people here are farmers. this how we earn our living. this is how we sustained ourselves. but the weather has been so unpredictable that we haven't really had a chance to plant anything now. you can even see the clouds across. it's not that green or anything like that because of the drought. it's hard. it really is hard to live like this. woman: the climate issue is a serious issue because it's affecting everyone, especially women, especially those single women that are trying to make ends meet and they try to go maybe for farming, and they can't do because now that there's stones and everything. so she's

the boat market stretches for more than two kilometers along the sandhya river.boats sell for the equivalent of 40 euros. they are robust and can carry loads of up to 450 kilograms. mohanando samadder has a number of loyal customers. >> it all depends on the skill of the boatbuilder and his experience. i have both. so people like me. but i have had to work very hard to get to where i am now. >> back at obaidal molla's farm, dolon roy has come to visit. he is an agricultural engineer with the district authorities and stops by regularly. the government is keen to promote floating farms. all kis of crops can be grown on them -- spinach, okra, tomatoes, cauliflowers, as well as gourds. climate change could mean that a third of the country will end up under water. the question is if floating farms, like here in barisal, could be developed across the country. >> right now, bangladesh produces enough food to be self-sufficient. what we don't have enough of is safe food, food free of toxins and contaminants. the floating gardens make a valuable contribution because the f

and at the bottom of those rivers and lakes, there are naturally occurring bacteria that transform liquid elemental mercury and turn it into another form of mercury which is even more dangerous, which is methylmercury. fernandez: it's a type of mercury that's absorbed almost at 100% by living organisms. [student laughing] fernandez: plankton and plants that are contaminated with mercury then get eaten by one fish, and then another fish will eat that fish and so on and so on up the food chain. but mercury has a very unusual characteristic. it magnifies. when it goes from one link in th chain tthe other, it magnifies roughly by a factor of 10. they are then exposed to levels of mercury that could be millions of times higher than the water where that fish was swimming. fernandez: if it's happening when you are a child or if you are a fetus, that damage can be permanent. it's a silent degrader of the quality of life of people that are exposed at these sorts of levels.
