Totals frogs ducks snakes dragonflies and even minnows imagine if one has to clear to cool for all these species to try for a group of delhi based scientists has created a web land which is an area between dry land and a water body in the north of the city who provided the leases for the regions biodiversity lets take a look at what impact this has had. The main thing on todays to do list for share another gardeners biodiversity bug is breaking water hyacinth fit is a relaxing job but it is crucial for the survival of these wetlands in northern valley. Because the water hyacinth may be beautiful to look at but they are a major pet. In india he a critic 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 flowing with the water from the yemenite have all the plant spreads very rapidly and tends to cover the entire surface of the water that stops sunlight trump in it drifting down to the bottom yes. I do know 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 your body. All the work that goes into sustaining life in the park is overseen by you colleges dr for yards. After the Delhi Development authority acquired the area in 2002. Was instrumental in transforming it from the bottom land it was into a private investment ecosystem. Anything even we came here there was a small depression we had we had i find it might its one of these. This week you can you get an indicator that this is historic of a plant which has been filled up or so these are by far we tested the subsonic if it is very high. I didnt know that about you concede that it was a bit planned once upon a time it was. To reverse this process and this team took a gentle approach to landscape the 100 acres of land so that slopes and embankment garden green water and runoff and retain any. 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 atlanta you get a batters and since last 56 years after its creation of that with lime where we have restored one of the beautiful Forest Committee that is. It was. Now every year me. Many. Veterans are some of the most productive natural ecosystems they dont just as bird habitat but also help in the maintenance of water levels was once dotted with these buttons that help recharge groundwater fires as well as. Those flood waters every year they also help unify the water and by mandalit the loss of limbs 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 still extract water out of the ground they have noticed that the new wetland has made a significant impact. Washed clothes. Didnt look clean since the great length that established sometimes 2007. Within a few years of. Looking dirty all the. Ecosystem biodiversity functions on its own but it also benefits from an occasional helping hand the gardeners are now planting german and urgent trees here to ensure that indigenous species flush their better and retaining water and for the Overall Health of the ecosystem. Even the least welcoming can be turned into a home in the last week for example residents are always trying to push the island of spitsbergen north of is one such and the only permanently populated island in the region and american ships is now attempting the un pinko but hes 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 grose herbs and vegetables here pioneering idea. This one i think looks good too and then this 134 the 4th one is on the table. Then maher and his employee haig a good 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 so that if you see that weve got the human now off to remove the tower and. Yet because we lifted it from 20 to 45 yeah definitely. Theyre learning to farm in these extremes by trial and error theres no experience to draw on then mark 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 icy no we didnt island enjoy the season but so how do we cope with the light season as thats the challenge but the dark season is very relaxed dont have to do too much but when the light comes. 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 degree its very. Soviet maher is trying to show that there are other options. To talk to other ships who also have received him and this is probably good to. Have been through. Its amazing to. This fresh child was given back then jim and collects the leftover plant material for composting thank you everything pretty sure take care you could die yes thank you. This isnt a 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 with 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. 00 degrees in here i really like to do some root vegetables carrots potatoes would be nice. German student on a capsule helps out with planting in the garden shes a little more critical of the settlement in the far north. Its been present in mining if its back her silly 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 did more believe that if his ideas can take root in spitsbergen they could grow practically anywhere. Environmentalists destruction and pollution sources people would like to find Creative Solutions to sustain the traditional livelihood and indigenous Fishing Community in mumbai came up with the simple but effective idea by creating small pools of clean water for fish to breed unhindered in the citys most polluted. The meaty river today for live deborah pollutants was once crystal clear. The river used to be very different if we flicked a few coins and we could see them clearly. For generation. Kohli and his family members of the kohli ethnic group. Lived and worked on the banks of the esther e. Where the meaty river flows into the arabian sea in mumbai. 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 maci is known as one of the Worlds Largest slums its a hub for Small Scale Industries like china and waste recycling. People throw all kinds of things into the miti river household of brian says 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 bag xanana 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. In 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 want to get better i was born in 1978. Up until then our families had worked unrestricted in the us to ari. So when the city started urbanizing and more and more people moved here. Land was reclaimed to accommodate them a new one and there was no space for us to fish for the 1st ponds in the community were built there and it must have the. The ponds have wire mesh is that each entrance which keep out the garbage flowing from upstream the mangroves to act like a natural barrier. The difference is stark between the people like 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 that 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 shells 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 family law and the south africa media both designed by architect antony. But now balsa lunar 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 involves 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 thousands of rooftops there were once a place where neighbors would meet to dry their clothes and habitat for one better novel martine they are a game changer. Back then up at the. Bus alone as infrastructure is already built so it would be hard for us to fit in new gardens now we have that. Greening 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 but the city of florida keys are choosing plants that are extremely heat resistant and only need a little water that ideally is provided by rainwater collected in tanks the new greenspace 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 resilient 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.

Lifes work about 25 years ago the couple began to buy land here piece by piece with their own money. What was here in 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 growing 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 planted along with thousands of sapling and different going to preach. That there may indeed need to 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 medicate or question the effects of Climate Change the man who 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.
