And. It takes a lot of water to irrigate his olive groves and vegetables so choosy and Farm Machinery heavy has 3 systems to collect rainwater. He owns 90 hectares of land which is a lot for the cairo while the region. Is just north of dallas on budget you can pump 6 liters per 2nd down to the fields its about that in summer the system runs for 16 to 17 hours a day we use less water in the cooler winter months the still enough rain and with our well we always have enough water. In this way. Not everyones situation as is comfortable. Just 10 kilometers away beyond these mountains life is much harder. For. Most families have to walk several kilometers to get to the nearest water source ringback d d to cover their daily needs they might have to make a number of trips back and forth. The jobs are to do requires 250 liters of water every day just for his animals and his fields. He needs an additional 40 meters for himself his wife and their 3 children.

It supplies more than half a 1000000 people in. This house water levels decline its being pumped further and further across the country. And that has a direct impact on the people who live here. Pressure is mounting even on the farmers who didnt think they have to worry about that water supply. In some places water is actually being stolen. There are an estimated 20000 illegal wells in china. Why raising awareness of the problem is so important if nothing changes farmers and that animals will no longer be able to survive in these mountains d.

The nation want to mention was the frustration with the amount of waste were creating in the world i believe the most sustainable think too was not to keep on using Natural Resources so recycling could be a solution if we were to make a new generation of recycled products with the same quote. It is and is the best. That we could demonstrate theres no need to keep on the independent for to get at all but we can transform what other people waste into polymer yarn fabrics and products. These flip flops are made of old car tires theyre 100 percent recycled and dont even need glue the labels reveal what goes into these products. All this labeled we try always to put in the in our garments the labels not this one says that we need 235 grams of discarded fishing nets to make one yard to fabric. Going to change hoping to raise awareness of Environmental Issues and at the same time create fashion that looks good. From this journalist Brenda Chavez reports on sustainability and observes the track. Because there must come one its starting to catch on but it didnt really pick up speed until the annual figures for textile waste became more common.

The label wants to make an environmentally conscious lifestyle part of its image its slogan because there is no plan it be. A. Part of a whole lifestyle if the whole 0 Waste Movement is growing and people want to produce less waste and have less impact on the environment. Than i am going to. A fashion trend or the future of clothing. How do you go in a chair is continuing to use experiments with cycling and hopes. To catch on in more mediterranean countries. Now and theyre awesome very front plastic pieces in that report and its hard to believe that most of them i made from over the last 6 some months some of them like this but as weve already seen Plastic Waste in the sea is especially helpful for walmart of marine life including core reefs in egypt over 300. 00 professional die of us took advantage of a corner virus logged so cleaned out the popular tourist resort the team spent about 3 days above and below the water heres this weeks doing your bit is evil. Egypts red sea coast is blessed with one of the worlds most stunning coral reefs its a hot spot for divers and tourists. But plastic and other trash endangered the sensitive underwater ecosystem. To counteract this egypts chamber of diving and water sports initiated underwater cleanups during the cold 19 locked down. On my way. From Sharm El Sheikh and who got a saw as an opportunity to clean the sea a chance to get rid of the trash and do something good while they had time on our hands. More than 350 professional divers were eager to volunteer. Divers in the hob removed plastic film and other debris that could suffocate the coral. In who got a decades worth of garbage were removed from the marina and taken to local Waste Disposal companies for sorting. Many resorts in egypt reopened in mid july but from now on.

We share your story. Is tourism a curse or blessing this is a question that comes up in many tourist hot spots in kenya over here is divided among the messiah population there are about 3000000 a science or 2 i many of them live from tourism as rangers gods or tall god i guess near to when the coronavirus put an end to tourism it also put an end to these source of income members of the not. Obvious in kenya are thinking of new ways to weather the storm together theyll do what ever it takes so that they preserve the environment arent way of life. These women are sifting through the river of the National Icon someone see located right next to canyons famous mossimo National Park these tributary flows into the mari. Nelson only Real Initiative the clean up he pays the women from the nearby villages 5. 00 a day for the a work. This is the most important d watershed in this part of the mara the local community relies on this water for there are usage for cooking cleaning and even also the livestock and our wildlife unfortunately the revised heavily polluted because of the activities of. Areas upstream there tourist comes all the way to that only really and his wife were both born in this area because founded National Life i can suffer see run by the local Muslim Community unlike in other natural results white life people in lifestyle quickly steer. National life itself is a very important corridor allowing wildlife to migrate especially. L. A funds which normally access this area for but thing and also. The green migration passes through these corridors although where to the other consequences. These area has always belonged to the local community but with growing communities infest the land the wildlife was vanishing to create the controversy 4 years ago the Community Members pulled down their fences and 2 years later the word life returned. The biggest problem facing wildlife today in kenya is what actually porting as people might actually think of it it is the lack of space and that space is with communities so communities have to be at the center of conservation the members of the conservancy largely rely on funding from donors and only a 5th of its income is generated by tourism but this year they called on a pandemic positive us teta the regions economy without the tories that visit the mara each year many only rely on their livestock as they lost their jobs us ranges in hotels or traders on the local markets. Everything has become difficult getting food is a problem there are diseases all around us just locked down at home and conti the village elder bill caldwell boom through crowd funding the national a team has been able to provide food aid to the villages its a lifeline for now it will take a long time before tourists will start coming back by their visit they help to protect kenyans what life but conservation is like only riyal worry that this may no longer work. So we need. A paradigm shift in their Conservation Movement to find out other are alternatives to sustain the important work that is done in conservation its work in progress but oleary ja hopes that involving the local people in this process will build more resilient communities and help nature to. How much trust watches are in kenyas maariv which areas of the us the biggest plastic with problems you may be wondering and we are wondering as well all these can be seen not only from the ground level but also from way up on High Resolution state light images this summer where platforms and abs that make these complex available we have a simple click or knowing where action is whats needed also helps us to fight against pollution get out and ago. Lucian in city parks that was the aim of the online call which hundreds of people in berlin followed the clean up call was based on Data Collected by volunteers who had discovered many polluted places in the german capital plan a supported the call the startups focus is environmental protection. Climate change is not one problem Climate Change is a lot of problems that are intertwined and our data approach helps us actually untangle this complexity we use the data to pinpoint exactly the locations and the types of issues that happen around the world that need to be immediately. Based startup analyzes data from Research Institutions around the world. Based on its findings plan a contact Individuals Companies and Community Groups in the affected areas world wide. They publicize their project and allow users to help fund them. Data analysis can help to identify and address environmental problems move quickly. Litter base is an online database thats open to everyone graphic show the results of more than a 1000 scientific studies on marine pollution. On a world map its easy to see where Research Expeditions have already taken place. The latest results from the Worldwide Scientific Community are regularly fed into the database. The aim is to make the global issue of marine pollution more accessible and easily understood including to nonscientists. Nowadays and over there if anything anymore especially because of social media and people like to have a picture of having these maps and these are notices graphs are providing useful information in the really short time to the public. Another example the Global Forest change database at the university of maryland uses a map to show the state of the worlds forests since 2013 users have been able to call up info based on satellite images they can see the effects of forest fires illegal logging and reforestation over long periods the platform is also dedicated to protecting forests and their inhabitants it combines Satellite Technology with open data and crowdsourcing. Data platforms make the problems more visible and with an app everyone can do their bit to help tackle them the c o 2 tracking every forest and focuses on individual consumption and it gives you the chance to create and manage your own forest. The oral eco app is similar enter your daily habits with a few clicks and the app will calculate your Carbon Footprint and show you how to shrink it it also invites you to be a climate hero by supporting Carbon Offset projects that help people and the planet. Or the digital activists in berlin mobilizing people is an important factor in tackling the global problem the climate for dickson has made people. That in unclear on what they need to do i think because of the language that is being used we speak. In a way that doesnt necessarily explain to people what the issues are we should be focusing more on actionable advices rather than simply speaking with big words about the issues. With the help of these apps and data platforms we can all contribute to the protection of the environment. High take but we have the low Carbon Footprint that is amazing isnt it speaking of low Carbon Footprint our next report is about. Stuff follow who goes mushrooms in ghana but in a very unusual.
