Now for taxing the environment is one thing Economic Activity is another but they dont necessarily have to be in conflict with one another but in our next story we look at a phony situation in balad where conservationists are warning that the governments plans to turn the idyllic meandering river pripyat into a major commercial waterway also linking the baltic the black sea would be an ecological disaster. This might look like a legendary kayaking excursion but for constantine chick karloff its a protest for the river. This is the 3rd year that the chairman of the belorussian Environmental Organization bogner has organized tours like this one. He wants people to experience the unspoiled nature along the river and to demonstrate against an inland waterway which could be built here. At a company for as the purpose it is like a european version of the amazon river. This place is unique because people can come here and see what rivers used to look like what nature in europe was like once. And if we can preserve these large areas of wild nature were also hoping to keep the ecological balance on the european continent along sickle you skew. It if youre europe is come the proposed waterway would cut straight through 11 nature reserves and the activists say it could destroy a unique ecosystem the canal is supposed to connect to the baltic sea and the black sea its route to go through one of the last big wetland areas in europe with rare black older forests. 90 percent of the birds in belarus live here including endangered species some animals nest directly on the untouched banks. This is tall covers 35 kilometers along many narrow wild sections of the river which would have to be dug out to allow commercial traffic. When the group stops for a break they talk to local thats about the pan of water way. Often people in the villages only have limited sources of information can be one of those sources for them so that they dont only get information from state media but also hear a different opinion. Should be sure the war and then they can decide for themselves what they want the rivers infrastructure to develop what they want to protect the environment around them and keep it healthy of their own for with us they are. Day 2 of the kayaking Campaign Many here are participating for the 1st time during breakfast constantine chalak of shares his concerns about the water way he believes that balance should be investing in eco tourism on the river people yet rather than in cargo transport. Them without constant people dont think about leaving these spots untouched simply leaving them to nature itself. Someone. To just sit down peacefully just like this and simply watch to hear the birds singing or watch things slowly changing get caught up on by your so its in your own. The activists warns that the construction of the can now could destroy the wetlands here the river bed would have to be deepened to allow big ships to pass thats why constantine chalak of his doing what he can to prevent the prepared from becoming another example of an ambitious economic project with catastrophic consequences for the natural world. Would be here. There are those who often wonder if school really teaches you what you need to know for the future well there is an in the mantra school not too far from here on the ask it of lagos where the children certainly learned some important lessons about Renewable Energy about Sustainable Living on the earth they do indeed for one thing they see fast hunt the advantages of solar power because the school generates its own but thats not all and well show you why dont you want to hear. What these kids have lots of ideas about what can be done to combat Climate Change burn fuel for still feel this ride a bicycle use solar power discussions of this nature are giving high priority at this school who want our children to be problem solvers who want them to be people able to look at the environment and not do things that you know we. School principal the caller is leading by example she runs the abas heart school the private elementary institution not far from lagos the principal has had solar panels installed on the roof of the building. Firm was such that we have. Already answered all they know. Each of them referred out by. Applying butin. And i agree the iffy the best the conditioning the lights in. The barn im without in order classroom. But getting to this point wasnt. A sizable investment required but the school was only able to get a bank loan so part of that money. To at some make it up with our own cars so now financing Sandoz School finances so. We have the issue the challenge of financing and we also have a challenge all from getting. Mom power you know training to manpower all understand the setting up of the projects the automation parts of the project and then the man to man its also. The students of land that everyone can do their part to ease the burden on the environment. Instead of going in for so whose you can use in your book and in sources. Like snark i will say you are funny when an edgy and i jus convention tried our best to save the planet like the card took some day when we felt he was in the plans he said quote my friend he said she only rituals for only true days the rest of the day suso upon those hours all humans should try to do on days where there is little direct sun the abbotts heart school is dependent on reserve solar energy stored in batteries it then has to limit the use of electricity to turn down the air conditioning or ton of some of the lights but by generating its own clean energy the school is saving money and producing electricity without producing harmful c o 2 emissions we are way behind in nigeria in. Bringing up creative and innovative ideas so protecting our environment from protecting the future of the nation one of the greatest lessons we have to teach our children in this day and age is how to make them permanent a better and safer place the example set by the school is teaching the students the importance of protecting the environment in very practical ways the home is that they will now share their new insights with us. Yes indeed in our sense that European Union phased out and can descend light bulbs Energy Conservation for lighting has dropped 30 percent african countries could do that too what do you think sandra i think that would be a great idea that Technology Comes from the global north but there are many other ways rich countries can support the global south undoing environmental damage in cameron so many of the trees have been cut down without regard for the future now i us get america is hoping plant thousands of new ones. It is the most important material when it comes to making guitars. With its density during the and dark color is particularly suitable for fret boards and bridges and taylor guitars a leading manufacturer of acoustic guitars gets most of its raw material from cameroon one of the worlds biggest suppliers of ebony recently the u. S. Based company committed itself to raising and replanting ebony trees in the congo basin forest of southeastern camera so far its grown 5000 saplings its target is 20000 trees within the coming years matthew the project manager is responsible for the nursery. Collection of seeds. The germination of the seeds care of the plants and. Cameroon is facing a rapid increase in deforestation the country is set to lose an area of forest around twice the size of gambia by 2035 according to the center for International Forestry research. Ebony trees which take hundreds of years to mature are disappearing fast cameroons forests are cleared for Palm Oil Rubber and cocoa plantations the cameroon based Congo Basin Institute carries out research on ebony and other tree species in the region. The sound of blue leads the ebony project field work hes very aware of the threats that ebony trees face. Probably the biggest threat to the survival of ebony is the destruction of forests because ebony is that dense forest tree that thrives in the undergrowth they cant grow in a plantation once the forest is removed the essence is lost it cant regenerate itself and Agricultural Land you go to goes. In 2011 taylor guitars became the cohen of this evan he saw mill in yellow in de camerons capital. The word comes directly from the forest to the sawmill where the company processes it to make different parts of guitars and other musical instruments. Only the best wood is used to make the instruments this means that many trees have to be felled and milled to ensure the company gets the quality it wants. The firm insists its not interested in green washing trying to buy an environmentally friendly image. I think theres a wonderful opportunity for us to. Not just use the word that people like to have on their guitars and violins but also a great opportunity to be able to replace that that that would replace those trees make. A really responsible exploitation of ebony the benefits not just the people who buy the guitars or the company that produces them but also the local communities that depend on these forests for their livelihoods. The evony project has teamed up with the cameroon government local villagers and the Congo Basin Institute to ensure a Sustainable Production circle. But there are also plenty of people who criticize the companys initiative. According to van sounds of blue there are viable alternatives to the precious black hardwood. So this is obviously this is not necessarily the only wood that can be used and other woods are also popular but i think theres actually a very strong aspect of tradition in the end we use that money to make the guitar because its what the customer wants to kill your q so. With these young ebony trees the Company Wants to insure its own future of course but it also hopes to give at least Something Back to the forest after all thats been taken from that. Getting our own to make us fit if theres also another one here is that you can take me literally always there is the one in tanzania has been growing but calling out like and if not wont want to fly me and people jumping into the nightmare that it very well with the help of the was bank mistake effecting the from the by developing i was one of the 5 Network Operating on my list. There was a time when it could take up to 2 hours for e. G. To get from his home to work in the morning although he lives within the city limits so. He was dependent on the dollars mini buses that are the most common means of transport here. Theres a lot of pickpocketing on the many buses because so many people are parked in together they usually fall before you even get on. T. V. The other problem is that there are so many traffic jams. So you spend a lot of time just sitting and waiting to move its also exhausting. Heavy traffic on a typical morning here with more than 5000000 inhabitants done this is the biggest city in tanzania and its growing rapidly in the next decade the population is expected to balloon to 10000000 and that poses a huge challenge for transport authorities run of luck atari heads one of the agencies tasked with adapting and improving infrastructure. People were experiencing a look when just. Their infrastructure was also some of it was not very good so many hours were lost. On the roads while going to work in the mornings and in the evenings when people would be back home. One solution a bus based Rapid Transit system with a network of dedicated bus lanes that bypass much of the traffic across the city the system so far stretches around 21 kilometers and has already cut travel time for some residents in half the 1st phase of the 6 phase project was finished and 2015 when we considered all the options the bus systems could be easier we humanity and you know our city because a lot of course was. Train system and we also looked up to see if it was when you. Bring in a bus system most of the people who are working there like that school be absorbed. Into a new system the system benefits the environment and it was supported by the institute for transportation and Development Policy a Global Organization that advocates Sustainable Transportation before the b r t came into doris a log of Public Transport Services provided by heavily polluting mini buses and the b. R. T. Was able to replace 3000 vehicles with 140 high capacity buses that all meet a much better emissions standard and it was also able to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions that contribute to the global credit crisis the new bus system has been a blessing for salim and hes just one of thousands of passengers who have cut up to 50 hours a month from their commute. Right there with them i used to feel bad because i was getting home so late my kids were p. S. By the time i got home i want to know much but its so much better now you know i get to spend time with my kids and look over the homework im playing with them a little so its not the market because the rapid bus gets me home so much faster when. There are still 5 phases to go until the project is complete the network will then cover around 130 kilometers until then some it even the other residents. Will have to rely on dollar dollars for at least some of their journeys. What a great project the rocky transit buses would they be kept open late in the cold but 100 in peoples lives in any case and that was thats open today if papa thank you for joining us i do hope you have a good plan i did i am found guilty no deal with finding the one confided in uganda and fell for me too now its a way and i joke of the Mission Foundation talk you can stay in touch by visiting our website and on our social media platforms to see them on your screen on to our next show as well by.
