Water ladies totals from ducks snakes dragonflies and even minnows imagine if one has to create a coup for all these species to try a group of delhi based scientists has created a with land which is an area between dry land and a water body in the north of the city to provide in a way uses for the regions biodiversity lets take a look at what impact this has had. The main thing on todays to do list for show another gardeners biodiversity box is breaking water hyacinth it is a relaxing job but it is crucial for the survival of these wetlands in northern italy. The water hyacinth may be beautiful to look out but they are a major best in india the accord to plants are originally from the amazon basin but are now some of the most deadly invasive in native ecosystems in south asia. Yes a. German other bandied about that. The water half it flowing with the water from the yemenite while the plant spreads very rapidly and dense to cover the entire surface of the water that stops sunlight trump an interesting down to the bottom. Ideal of all the plants tend to die and the in the water creatures including fish and other marine animals perish because there is not enough oxygen to survive sunlight. Ok you need a meal and you funny. All the work that goes into sustaining life in the park is overseen by a colleges doctor for ya. After the Delhi Development authority acquired the area in 2002. Was instrumental in transforming it from the bottom land it was in to a thriving veteran ecosystem. He couldnt even we came here there was a small depression we had we had i find it might its one of these. Which was can you get an indicator that this is what you call historic of a plant which has been fitted up for sale. But says to the subsonic if it is very high. I didnt know that about you concede that it was a bit plan once upon a time it was. To reverse this process and the steam to get gentle approach to landscape the 100 acres of land so that slopes and embankment garden green water and runoff and retain it. Based on the highs and lows in the land to develop 2 distinct dots here each of which gets unique visitors thought this is for divers especially the birds. Coming here they are divers and in medicine of the kind you get batters and since last 56 years after this tradition of that great plan where we have restored one of the beautiful Forest Community that is. It was. Now every year. You get more than. Many and. Some of the most productive natural ecosystems they dont just as bird have a dog but also help in the maintenance of water levels believe was once dotted with these wetlands that help recharge groundwater fires as well as. Those flood waters every year they also help unify the water environmentalist say the loss of veterans is very closely connected to the water problems they face. Residents in. Right next to the biodiversity park dont have water but have to use 100 pounds to extract water out of the ground they have noticed that the new wetland has made a significant impact. And they never look clean since the Great Lengths that established sometimes. Within a few years of. Looking dirty all the time. With. The ecosystem biodiversity functions on its own but it also benefits from an occasional helping hand the garden is on our planting german and origin trees here to ensure that indigenous species flush their better agree gaining water and for the Overall Health of the ecosystem. Even the least welcoming can be turned into a hole in the cord and last week for example the dissidents up always trying to push the limit the island of spits budget. Is one such elises and the only moment populated island in the teaching and American Ship is now attempting the un pink over these growing fresh vegetables for the local community that lives without sunlight for 3 months of the. Finally a little light every day in winter the darkness here stretches on for months its minus 25. 00 degrees celsius and the ground is permafrost there are more polar bears than humans on spitsbergen. But one of those humans benjamin did mark rows herbs and vegetables here a pioneering idea. This one i think looks good too and then this one tree. For the 4th one is on the favors then maher and his employee hagen gives harvest the crops grown in the lab as he calls this room. It has an almost tropical climate in the midst of a frozen wilderness and hes planted cress bezel and other plants see that we are now off to remove the tower and. Yeah yeah because we lifted it from a friend who will 45 yes definitely. Theyre learning to farm in these extremes by trial and error theres no experience to draw on them are came up with the idea because he was desperate for Fresh Produce one day he even hopes to grow some tomatoes they would be the northernmost crop of them on earth. Its pitch black here by 3 in the afternoon benjamins used to that by now. Hes originally from florida but 10 years ago the ships cook washed up on the shores of the ice. The norwegian island actually enjoyed the dark season but so how do we cope with the light season as best a challenge but the dark season is very relaxed dont have to do too much but when the light comes back we get very busy and you have to run all of the time. Whether dark or light vid mars business is booming hes barely able to keep up with demand and capacities are limited spitzbergen is located nearly a 1000 kilometers north of the next populated settlement practically everything has to be flown in including produce this other stuff but thats expensive and bad for the environment to some greens for you. So that maher is trying to show that there are other options. Then talk to other chefs who also on to have received in this public good to. Give in to check it out. Its amazing to have this treasure trove. Given back benjamin collects the leftover plant material for composting u. F. O. Its the gardeners greenhouse in the darkness of the polar night its 20 below in here but when spring brings back the light itll turn lush and green we have some days you know over there in the midnight sun theres sun in theory 24 hours a day so it just moves around in the sky and it can get like 2530 degrees in here i really like to do some root vegetables carrots potatoes would be nice. German student ana ketzel helps out with planting in the garden shes a little more critical of the settlement in the far north. Its been present in mining disputes back and kind of personally i dont see spitzbergen as a place where people should be living. Because its gone to such an extreme climate and its so unsustainable to live here but there will never come a time when people dont live here so i think its a very good idea to try growing your own plants here. But harbaugh says its about more than just having fresh vegetables on spitsbergen. This technique that we developed here can be used to grow food in this inner city it can be used to grow food on different islands so it has many. Applications to other places as well so if we can do it here it can be done anywhere this is the most challenging place to do it. Benjamin vidmar believes that if his ideas can take root in spitsbergen they could grow practically anywhere. Environmental destruction and pollution forces people to find Creative Solutions to sustain the traditional livelihood and indigenous Fishing Community in mumbai came up with a simple but effective idea by creating small pools of clean water for fish to breed unhindered in the citys most polluted. Miti river today for live deborah pollutants was once crystal clear. There ever used to be very different if we flicked a few coins and we could see them clearly. For generation. Kohli and his family who are members of the coli ethnic group. Lived and worked on the banks of the esther e. Where the meaty river flows into the arabian sea in. The 18 kilometer long river is the dividing line between the city of mumbai and its suburbs. 70 percent of its banks on both sides occupied by slums for whom the polluted river is the only source of water. Directly which lies south of the miti is known as one of the Worlds Largest slums its a hub for Small Scale Industries like honey and waste recycling. People throw all kinds of things into the miti river Household Appliances even biomedical waste like used syringes and. They dont understand that we depend on this river for everything. I hope people stop doing those. Plastic bags and i was so much other garbage that we cant even row our boats through it at times. Our path is blocked by large chunks of garbage floating around. But in our. View of the disastrous conditions the fishermen have taken things into their own hands using an age old practice the kohlis of dharavi have manually built their own ponds forming naturally enclosed areas. Here they can breed and catch their own fish. To create the ponds the fishermen have to remove the silt by hand and down the sea water that flows into the estuary at high tide the mother going to make one is not good but its a i was born in 1978. Have been told that our families had worked unrestricted in the estuary. So when the city started urbanizing more and more people moved here. Land was reclaimed to accommodate them and there was no space for us to fish the 1st ponds in the community were built there and they must have the. The ponds have wire mesh is at each entrance which keep out the garbage flowing from upstream the mangroves to act like a natural barrier. The difference is stark between the innkeeper black water of the rest of the river and the lighter color of the ponds where the fish are thriving. Its fisherman like Vinayak Kohli who are making a difference of the grass roots. A long Term Solution however will be possible only once the miti is cleaned. The advantages of green havens are undeniable foxwoods and gardens give people food for physical activity relaxation or even an escape from the heat the spanish city of barcelona is taking action to create more resting places like this not only for people but also for insects and animals lets see how. Cradle to between lush ills and the Mediterranean Sea barcelona is spains 2nd biggest city. Millions of people come here every year not only to enjoy the citys unique flair but all. To visit world famous buildings such as the. And the south africa media both designed by architect antony. But now barcelona could also become famous for its green ambitions by 2030 the City Councils urban ecologists are looking to create an additional 160. 00 hectares of green spaces thats one square meter per resident as well. Its a very ambitious plan that will take a lot of effort but local residents will benefit from these green spaces which will also help absorb pollutants and regulate temperatures up in the build up a turning point that is much needed during recent decades barcelonas average temperature has risen by more than 2 degrees celsius now the city is looking to tackle the issue with a change in mindset and a range of green projects at the central glorious square that involved digging deep the busiest traffic junction in the city has become a Major Construction site soon cars will be diverted into underground tunnels and to the surface will be transformed into green parks. We want to move away from the use of private vehicles and create an environment that makes it easy to walk or go by bike or public transport. But a key player in the strategy to ease the effects of Climate Change will be an increase in the number of vertical gardens and the fountains of rooftops the ones the place where neighbors would meet to drive their clothes and habitat for one but another martine they are a game changer. But then the. Bus alone as infrastructure is already built so it would be hard for us to fit in new gardens now. That. Greening our terraces rooftops and facades are some of the only opportunities that are left for us as a city. Before the roof can undergo such a transition the structure of the buildings needs to be checked and apartment owners have to contribute financially to the project. For a teaser choosing plants that are extremely heat resistant and only need a little water that ideally is provided by rainwater collected in tanks the new green space can reduce the heat on the roof by up to 50 percent cooling down the apartments below and reducing the need for air conditioning as well as heating bringing nature to barcelona is a huge undertaking. This is about creating resilience spaces that can cope with the disruption that Climate Change is causing green spaces both private and public ones are really important and thats why we need to commit to policymaking that ensures the green areas in the city increase. Soon it may no longer be necessary to climb the hills if you want to get some fresh air and enjoy the beauty of nature. Deforestation and the loss of habitat of wild animals is a global issue often forest land is exploited and abandoned after many years of intensive cultivation leaving of soil fertility a couple of the western caucus proved that it is possible but dont such a way into a flourishing forest again. A new and Pamela Malhotra regularly check the camera traps it allows them to monitor even the extremely shy leopard. More than 200. 00 endangered species live in their sanctuary home the same animals initiative it covers 1. 2 square kilometers of forest in southern india. Its the. Months work about 25 years ago the couple began to buy land here piece by piece with their own money. What was here and 95 were basically plantation lands or abandoned rice fields many areas were relatively barren of any type of tree cover because of having had coffee grown on them. Today what is here now all of those lands have basically recovered they created indians 1st private protected area and reforested it on a large scale. This is also what we have gone to along with poles and saplings and different going to create. That didnt mean to be made me do trees good to syria. We have had a number of scientific studies done within the sanctuary grounds and native trees soak up much more Carbon Dioxide than the exotic stew so this helps to mitigate or cushion the effects of Climate Change the monks are letting the forest grow dead trees also enrich the soil with nutrients. Their pride and joy are some centuries old rain forest giants. They are fighting to grow forest in other parts of india as well they called on companies and Business People to follow their lead. They told me is inventive and also on dings dont provide the optimum conditions for exercise im sure many of you run on a window facing treadmill go for a swim at the looking forward if you dont have access to a leak or the see the danish capital of copenhagen has a trash burning facility into well a ski slope lets see why and how. 450 meters of fun koeppen hill is an artificial ski slope on the waterfront in denmarks capital copenhagen and it operates without any snow so it can stay open year round. For a flat country with no mountains for natural skiing this 85 metre high slope is pretty impressive. If you are going to get used to the behavior sometimes its really quick sometimes its no wind up or behave differently than the other so a little bit like when the size of the world its not. Like. The ski is moving over so maybe this is the new way of skiing in 2015. This unique ski slope was built on a waste to energy plant in copenhagen the industrial port facility but the steam here doesnt pose any Health Hazard this cutting edge plant numbers among the worlds cleanest and most modern. Of the world famous Architectural Firm bianca engels group helped bring the v. We have. 500000 people. Every year. Theres no possibility so. A building that is. In the middle of. A conveyor. Skiers and snowboarders can show off their skills. Or in the. Feels like real snow. Coming through. Surface and that surface has. No the most copenhagen is one of europes most environmentally friendly cities many here get around by bike car. Now is meant to improve the quality of life here even more the architecture bright idea of combining a waste to energy plant and a recreational facility one of the german sustainability award. Isnt just for skiing enthusiasts hikers joggers can follow a trail to the top of the entire area was built for recreation and bringing people closer together. And we dont need a function of the city where you have People Living in one place people working somewhere else factories. Everything have a much more. Fun city but also. Instead of you having to travel to go everywhere with transportation just walk around and have all the different facilities of a city within a close distance. Does koeppen hill have to stop for a copenhagen landmark in any case it does make capital even greener. Well. If you have an idea to. Tell us about it. We always looking for solutions. And i hope you enjoy. Well be back next week until then good bye. The for. Me but i dont think i should make friends i ask him to join a sorority dealing with i mean i think i killed many civilians i mean i should come including my father why do you think i was a student because i wanted to build a life for myself like these totally but suddenly life became alledge kind of song.
