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 the weakest link to install besides that. And making clones out of fish things. And we also show you how designing the food so many transformed toys into something new is food. Every year so if africa sees a migration of was eastern coast and he was trying to know from on to weve. Lost you know so the largest number of words on record off the coast of cape town scientists call 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 those huge mammals migrate from i talked to the woman waters off the coast of mozambique to come. Here very good after a few months to return some of the long the same route and researches have seen an encouraging rise in numbers for humpback whales one of the great conservation Success Stories from stand of whaling alison people stop catching them commercially in the late seventys around Southern Africa the population have been increasing revalue. I think they can be 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 which the team will analyze later the waters around cape town provide the do conditions to study the behavior of the way this. Lake. Had a lot of feeding off the west coast of south africa which quite unusual at all that you. Are feeding in the antarctic and we picking up a lot of juvenile whales this year 202019 hanging around the South African coast that are feeding right in shore in falls by a really interesting account fast it gives us an opportunity to study the feeding behavior and the sounds and making wells communicate using operad to focus actions from. And of course songs each is associated with a specific type of behavior. Comparing recorded here 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 i had a friend actually major look at dolphin distribution because he was only strongly associated with my mate here in these animals and around africa mating happens up in the tropical areas equitorial which africa and of mozambique on the east coast around cape town 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 under the terms of mens in 29 to several ways dont enforce after becoming trapped in fishing gear images of them being towed. To show appeared in media around the globe. In a very short amount of time there were a number of wells that were entangled in the false area and this was exposed by ocean conservationist and very passionate ocean guys in the area and this caused a groundswell of public cry 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 octopi fishing was recently lifted but a number of sticks have to precautions went to do to prevent any further entanglement of wells in the tropics. Further up the coast this right where curve is enjoying some time with its mother to the delight of lukas. About a 3 hard drive from kept town when watching the trucks about how for me than to harvest a year. While tourism is is big all over the world but in south africa critically important. Its a huge huge attraction for people with something right well theres an amazing world to watch because they spend a lot of time on the Water Surface i often think its the best way to walk 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 cape town and throughout the world. While amazing did you know that was. Our next piece is about fish still and more specifically this it might sound like but it can actually be useful resource a french company. Fish scheme 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 jackets shoes and hounds. At frenchtown to reproduce this latter for luxury accessories like card holders and comebacks. And all measures which used to transform fish skin into leather because today its a way studies thrown away by the Food Industry and the catering industry i wanted to question on the advantage of fish skin once its been the scale it is that it has a unique texture its one of the strongest the most durable levers in the world and very supple. The tunnel really removes the remaining flesh and cleans the skins and a rotating drum. After soaking an eco friendly town instead of to dry. That mist skins are softened and died with various colors. And now the company is processing around 2000 skins per month. 2 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 part. We share your story. Whether there was a bite or trucks mostly going to be changed every now and then long before the rabbit starts to bore out on becomes an issue but actually and its mainly viewable to me oh and did you write sandra and thats why recycling tiles has Great Potential there are so many things. 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 of it i have news larry tires consist of rubber Natural Rubber and wire bio 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 speak oh does have to pick them up from carriages entire dealers. And because the truck tires the so bulky only 100. 00 actually fit into a container. 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 of the offensive with. Colin based design to catch a van or 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 happy. And i tend to focus on what i call prized pieces which might be impost or patched up or have a manufacturers branding. I pick out the most interesting ones 1st was the past year. As well as expensive ham banks and other one off creations catcher vanno 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. As a child i mean much 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 you know but the tie recycling company is 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 the force of a 1000 tons of theyre pretty tough. We didnt give it 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. That build in fells castle theyre being used to protect the granite slabs in the courtyard. Once 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 not often found on garbage heap glass bottles yes indeed did you know that glass is one of the longest lasting manmade 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 are being put to further good use lets go see it. Oh. No only the fabulous plastic you can play studio. 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 sammy would have 1520 minutes we were cleaning it been pretty good every friday every friday its nice to get it when they are you know game were doing here you know. 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 dustbins 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 plant pick up. He told us we can go to the beach to swim after collecting trash i connected. To. 80 years ago the extent of ocean pollution really hits home form our studies have shown that the even ocean is the 2nd most polluted in the world this affects both the marini life and the human food supply here in laos amar decided to start doing his beats to protect the ocean. To be bored by the sea shore but one time the boat had an injured. But when i came out the boat. Bad bad bad. Everywhere and there was peace around you know and there was a lot of there was no doing anything. Maybe a good idea you can come up on the beat you know you just want to be area to have kids playing you know. But omar didnt just collect the boxes he used them to build and nicer school this is the school now all the board will hear. About. The problem is when we get out of the city 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 coming year. So they want they want to move is a move to. Be the holes who would want all of our why we need everything but my thought of. The whiskey and the wine is to get in the book for the community important. And leave time for the locals accepted that this is 100 bottles really do belong in schools. And strong woman you know 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 in india what is and students dont have to pay to attend omar school this means that support from volunteers has proved vital in keeping the school going. Im so thankful now that everybody will be aware and calm and type to. People 2. I dont mars square these youngsters are 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 vivo 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 single men agreed on the edge of the village bright and shiny in the sun this is coming down to 3 hours from lagos by car its isolated location was more of a factor when scaling the solar panels than environmental reasons connecting the village to the National Call grid is not considered with the efforts that many people here make a living with agriculture some in green milling operations like richard the bearing the sheep previously used a few car generator to run for grinding machine is now a part comes from the sea level. Will yesterday i bought 500 now worth and pa credits now we can leave the lights on at minds theres light at school in palm of my 1000000 business decision was different when we use not you know not all home yeah home and get. This skeptical 1st many here have since switched to green energy. 100 households now get their power from the solar grid. That means france fewer c o 2 emissions according to the Nigerian Company really take so long some funding for the project came from the 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 these locations the project is also bolstered by german Company Based in frankfurt. A crowd investing platform called better vest raised 220000 euros for the solo mini grids of nigeria. C. E. O. Marilyn hape says the company is aimed at customers who want to invest in construction ecologically projection other parts of the world our future market is africa because this market is crowing 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 beings there who are fine and 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 villages. But there is also a dark side to the solar energy being. Affectionate they only last 20 years and then they have to be disposed off and the lead acid batteries needed to store electricity can cause serious short 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 a 2 and a half hour drive from the couple tunis i mean is the bell surge 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 tunisian authorities as we introduced one full of them back into the wild they hope the money ones will reproduce in the another true hubby tent and improve the eco system the project wont just be good for nature it should also help to boost tourism. Shes here 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 Atlas Mountains is a joint project between spanish scientists and the to news you know dorothys forehead researcher. 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 the way 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 been 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. To 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 old. Habits and. The outlook is native to north africa but long clearance poachers under changing the ecosystem have put their survival in jeopardy Say International conservation groups. The 2 museums want to see the gazelles inhabit the region once again and 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 climbs. Out of 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 elsewhere in this reserve. And as the population of the outlets because there has been growing so have visitor numbers to the nature is a. 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 successfully thats why we also set up a Pilot Research project to monitor the gazelles ilish the data we gather on the animals will allow us to track their movements and help us to locate them so. You know this type of gazelle tends to roam an inaccessible mountain terrain so the animals off it would transmit as. 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.
