The ideas and concepts people have come up with to help save the environment im really looking forward to the was in south africa a wonderful species that needs protecting but there it is plenty more in store besides that. Making clones all talk fish games. And we also show you how design is so many. Ties into something musical. Every year so if africa sees a migration of was eastern coast i mean was pro bono from want to take a we. Saw the biggest number of words on record off the coast of cape town scientists cool savation ists and tourists continue to learn more about these giant marine animals we went along to find out more. At certain times of the year special visitors can be supported in what is a 1st day in south africa. Where the huge mom was migrate from and talked to the woman worked as off the coast of mozambique to carve their young. Very good after a few months to return some of the long the same route and researches have seen an encouraging rise in numbers. Of the great conservation Success Stories since the end of whaling some people stop questioning commercially in the late seventys around Southern Africa the population have been increasing rebounding. Thank you and we think getting up toward the carrying capacity of the ecosystem the population of the west and the east coast of africa have been increasing probably close to 10 percent yet the researches use a hydrophone an underwater microphone to record words sound which the team will analyze later the waters around cape town provide the do conditions to study the behavior of the well this. Lake. Had a lot of feeding off the west coast of south africa which quite unusual that ill let you get out that was a feeling in me and talked and were picking up a lot of juvenile whales this year 202019 hanging around the South African coast that are feeding right in show in falls by a really interesting occurrence fast it gives us an opportunity to study the feeding behavior and the sounds and making whereas communicate using up to 4 concessions from clicks to whistles and of course songs each is associated with a specific type of behavior. Comparing recorded here to that recorded in africa gives researches insights into which populations move through different areas so we were quite surprised when we 1st Record Company in in force by because of how different we actually bear to look at dolphin distribution because hamburg was only strongly associated with my mate here in these animals and around africa mating habits of tropical areas so rather equitorial which africa and of mozambique on the east coast around cape town animals should just be migrating past although we are aware of animals of summer months feeding as well. While commercial whaling was banned several decades ago the animals to face a number of threats including being struck by ships and entanglement in 29 to several ways dont enforce after becoming trapped in fishing gear images of them being towed to. Appeared in media around the globe. In a very short amount of time there were a number of whales that were in tangled in the false bay area and this was exposed by ocean conservationists and very passionate ocean goes in the area and this caused a groundswell of public outcry they went all the way to the top of the governments hands and this caused the fishery to be shut out really quickly a temporary ban on octopus fishing was recently lifted but a number of sticks have to precautions went to do to prevent any further entanglement in the tribes. Further up the coast this right where a curve is enjoying some time with its mother to the delight of lucas everyone. In concert about 3 hard drives from kept town when watching the trucks about half a 1000000 tourists a year. While tourism is is big all over the world but in south africa critically important. The huge huge attraction for people with southern right whales is an amazing wild to watch because they spend a lot of time on the Water Surface often think its the best way to watch having been hunted to the brink of extinction this was have made an astounding recovery through the efforts of scientists and conservationists they can see more suffering through the waters around town and throughout the world. While amazing did you know that was actually need. Our next piece is about fish kill and more specifically this it might sound like but it can actually be useful resource a French Company makes leather from fish and it is a big hes another installment for my series. Usually fish skins are a waste product so they cost next to nothing. Some companies in africa turning them into jacket shoes and homs. A french town a reproduces letter for luxury accessories like card holders and then backs. It up a measure used to transform fish skin into leather because today its the way studies thrown away by the Food Industry and the catering industry have altered person on the advantage of fish skin once its been discovered is that it has a unique texture and its one of the strongest the most durable letters in the world and very supple. The tunnel really removes the remaining flesh and cleans the skins in a rotating drum. Just soaking in eco friendly town instead to try. That mist skins of softened and died with various colors. And now the company is processing around 2000 skins per month. Scans that would otherwise just be useless waste. And how about you if youre also doing your bit tell us about it. Visit our website or send us a tweet. Hash tag doing your bit. We share your story. Whether there was a blight on trucks it mostly is going to be changed every now and then long before the rabbit starts to fall apart one becomes an issue but rather than actually and its seen me do a book much to me oh and did you write sandra and thats why recycling tiles has Great Potential there are so many things that can be made from them big all small even for and see for yourself what a german designer has managed to create. Is this the end of the road for these tires that trade has worn down and theyre no longer safe for driving but what others throw away is a valuable commodity for one Company Based in eastern germany. Is particularly interested in large truck tires take up if i ever use lorry tires consist of rubber Natural Rubber and wire by a wire right here in the tread and along the rim and those are 2 components that can be separated easily. In the time manufacturing process heat is used to compress the rubber making the tires firm and heavy. So special machines a needed to shred them. They use as much energy annually as 1200 households. Danny gets the tires for nothing but his recycling company near to speak o. Does have to pick them up from carriages and tie dealers. And because the truck tires the so bulky only 100. 00 actually fit into a container. I think most of to keep the driving in the transport costs down we try to source our tires locally but as we produce 20000 tons of rubber granular it from the truck tires alone we sometimes have to travel hundreds of kilometers to get enough orders of defensively. But in base design a catch of an owner doesnt have quite as far to go she gets her old material for free from bicycle shops in her neighborhood. A lot of her products are made from in achieves. As. Right i look for inner tubes with specific wits because i need them for various products. Of and i tend to focus on what i call price pieces which might be in past or patched up or have a manufacturers branding. I pick out the most interesting ones 1st ones the past year. As well as expensive handbags and other one off creations catch a vendor also makes wallets and key fobs that sell a prices similar to those of commercial products. In comparison to other materials the designers says that rubber has many advantages. One great thing about this material is the supply is endless theres more than you could ever need its also waterproof its durable its completely begun and for many its a Good Alternative to leather. At the tire recycling company theres no longer any sign of the original form. The shredded rubber is molded into everything from small mats to large sheets weighing 80 kilos. Or compressed with a force of a 1000 tons so theyre pretty tough. We didnt driven over them with tanks weve developed a new process that allows us to use the maximum amount of recycled rubber some products integrate natural couch work or other substances. But we dont we only use old timers. Customers like the recycled rubber when used as flooring the sheets dont have to be glued down and they can stand up to the elements. Filled in fells castle theyre being used to protect the grand slabs in the courtyard. Once the restoration work is finished the mats can be cleaned and used elsewhere. This robust material last for years. Our next report is about repurposing Something Else thats often found on garbage heap glass bottles yes indeed did you know that glass is one of the longest lasting mind made materials we have it seems a shame to see so much of it simply discard it but on the Canyon Island of lamu at least some bottles found on the beach and now being put to good use lets go see it. All the. Plastic different place to do yes. Its ocean clean up the here. In kenya the children might have made a game out of it but for omar ali this is more of a possible conservation mission. For me we have 1520 minutes. To get there when they are you know again were doing here. But it goes a long way you know i think. Most of. Them while they are on this. Like many african countries kenya is grappling with a got beach problem there are no public dust bins for people to dump their trash and theres no garbage collection center. With the trash piling up people have had to take matters into their own hands collection and recycling initiatives like omars help to plug pick up. He told us how we can go to the beach to free him after collecting trash i connected. To. 80 years ago at the extent of ocean pollution really hits home form our studies have shown that the even ocean is the 2nd most polluted in the wild this affects both of them are a knife and the human food supply here in london amar decided to start doing his bit to protect the ocean. You want to be bored by the sea shore but one time the boat 100 injured. But when i came out of the boat you will abide by by the glass lusty everywhere and there was peace around you know and there was a lot of there was no doing anything also i thought maybe a good idea what a very nice you can come up and clean up i would be you know just a small of the area to have kids playing there you know. How it started. But omar didnt just collect the boxes he used them to build and nasri school this is the school now or the board will hear. The problem is when we get that far out of the sea we bring in 2 beloved there was nobody to pick them up but easier conservative island and some locals were not happy when omar opened the school no one has found this country. So the one they want to go to is a most. Beautiful old bull of why we see everything but my thought of. The whiskey and the wine used to get in the book all of the community important. And leave time for the locals accepted that this is one we are 100 bottles really do belong in schools. And strong woman in my child is run and he joined the school in 2018 i feel good when i see kids having a chance to study and besides studying they also learn about the environment and. Students dont have to pay to attend on our school this means that support from volunteers has proved vital in keeping the school going. Im so thankful now that everybody be aware and calm and type to. People. I dont know our school with these youngsters and learning fighting lessons not only in the classroom but out in the open air where the ocean needs their help. Now here in my country not everyone is connected to the electricity grid and that means people especially those in the rural areas are often forced to use other sources of power including give up what is dirty are not sustainable but a crowd investing platform in europas looking to fine and Renewable Energy projects here. Its hard to miss the solar min agreed on the edge of the village bright and shiny in the sun this experiment comes to. Us from lagos by car its isolated location is more of a fertile unschooling the solar panels than environmental reasons connecting the village to the National Call grace was not considered with the effort many people here make a living the agriculture some of the grain milling operations like richard the bearing the sheep previously used to feel charging the rate to run for grinding machine is now a call came from the south. Where yesterday i bought 500 now one thing pa credits now we can leave the lights on at this lights at school in palm of my 1000000 because the situation was different when we use not all home. Home and get. To skeptical 1st many here have since switched to green energy. And the 500. 00 households now get their power from the solar grid. That means transputer c o 2 emissions according to the Nigerian Company really takes. Some funding for the project came from a German Government agency the Renewable Energy business actually is something that is really viable for nigeria to look into you know because. Like you know nigeria actually has about 55 percent of its population without access so and we know that its not Cost Effective to extend the grid to these areas so 1. 00 of the best with these by deploying the goods to these locations. The project was also told by german Company Based in frankfurt. A crowd investing platform called better vest raised 220000 euros for the sale of integrated nigeria c. E. O. Marilyn tape says the company is paying customers who want to invest in construction ecologically projects in other parts of the world our future market is africa because this market is crawling so tremendously and the amount of people there that need it for city is the highest all over the world. So there is much money needed there is a much potential and also as mentioned the Interest Rates there are very very high so they need cheaper money and they need especially any way of financing there is no solution there are no banks there who finance those smaller projects all the crowd funding platforms at the moment the solutions to that money can come to africa small and Medium Sized Enterprises to prepare the tricity into that. But there is also a dark side to the solar energy being. Manufactured today only last 20 years and then they have to be disposed off and the lead acid batteries needed to store electricity can cause serious sure pollution. But for now the mini grid has improved the lives of many here boosting their businesses and improving and the brain. From nigeria we have not so very remote region of tunisia want to have our drive from the capital tunis i mean is the job else National Park about 100 years ago while gazelles used to live here but today theyve completely disappeared from the landscape now an initiative launched my spanish on to news in all 3 teams as we introduced 100 full of them into the wild they hope the irony was we will produce in the another true hub a tent and improve the eco system the project wont just be good for nature it should also help to boost tourism. She said yes to see members of an endangered species that had all but disappeared in tunisia are now back to roam free again in their natural habitat. Around 30 outlets because elves are gradually being released in egypt bell says National Park the territory they inhabit covers approximately 20 square kilometers. Their resettlement in the northern not less mountains is a joint project between spanish scientists and the to news you know dorothys forehead research. I know a touching moment when we bring these animals here in 2017 they were much different now here and insects in such a way i feel that. They are not my babies but they are my pets you say and i know they will be very much happy in nature although i want to be able to take care of them so that is the main thing i really so so excited and my emotion is so big. The animals were brought over to the region from spain just a few years ago with the hope of them settling into the environment and producing offspring the projects staff set up expensive enclosures in the future reserve where they would initially be protected and cared for. Their population has since doubled since local ranger i meant ben rumah. His 1st job of the day is to look in on the shy animals. Check on the animals in the pens every morning ive been doing this kind of work for years now i know how to treat them i know these animals very well and i even think about them on my days off and im not kidding and ive come to love these helpless because elves. Have bitten. The outlaws because theyll is native to north africa but clearance poachers under changing ecosystem have put their survival in jeopardy Say International conservation groups. The 2 museums want to see the gazelles inhabit the region once again on the chances of the Reintroduction Program succeeding are high says the director of the National Park. The animals feel at home in these High Altitude climes. Downtown and weve also made efforts to raise awareness about the animals among people who live around the National Park. And now of course we hope that theyll be safe here and the 10 years from now there will be a big herd of these because in this reserve. Is the population of the atlas because there has been growing so have visitor numbers to the nature reserve. Theres a lot of interest among tunisians in the story behind the reintroduction adventure. For them the animals are also a cultural icon of their region. Were going to protect them and do everything we can to ensure that they settle in and successfully so thats why we also set up a Pilot Research project to monitor the gazelles delish the data we gather on the animals will allow us to track their movements and help us to locate them so. This type of gazelle tends to roam an inaccessible mountain terrain so the animals off it would transmit is the conservationists can then determine where they spend most of their time and above all how many of them survive. If all goes well there are another 50 gazelles in the enclosure waiting to be reintroduced into the wild.
