Preserve biodiversity and make sure species can thrive in an eat off Climate Change what can be do to secure these safe havens thats what we talk about today hello welcome to eco india. Coming to you from my neighborhood in mumbai bees at a prime example for what happens when safe havens are destroyed about 80 percent of all pollination worldwide is done by bees but because of this decides Global Warming among other factors the false treats and this is of course a lot of folks all the plants they pollinate and environment to project in the Mountain View engines of the india trying to help create these retreats with traditional be farming. If inside and out in the indian hockey. They are at home in the mountains of the indian subcontinent once there were many species of bees in the nothern state of the matter british beekeepers even get bees in traditional hives on the walls of their homes there. Are still keeps his bees this way its a practice he learnt from his father. Paul it was one of the typical characteristics of the socalled march in the march quarter just every household had been behinds to harvest honey for their own you. Soon hear what these voices. In their mouth. They got a lot of these if you have the heart on their own i mean whatever youre good at that it was hard to learn them and from callers theres going to. Leave as one of the few people who breeds bees according to the old tradition he was the bee hives much like his ancestors but instead off in the walls of the house the bees now live in the garden. Where so is every flowering plant needs to be pollinated water here hives like this the pollination of the plugs not back. Later we can also harvest honey thats a problem. The materials that uses to build the highways are from the region using local products makes the hives both affordable and by mentally friendly their appearance is reminiscent of the traditional him archly cottages. But in the past i only used the bees to produce honey i was satisfied with whatever little money i earn from it when i started taking courses i learned about the Significant Growth of the claim pollination especially here in the marginal courses like the. That ended are offered in conjunction with the governmental programs in an effort to aid b. Preservation this is important because these are a source of income for beekeepers. The insects also make an important contribution to farmers harvest around one 3rd of the crops worldwide are dependent on pollinators like bees. But my hands are saying from here matter you know where city says honeybees are endangered especially in this region. Because of the. Destruction one of the biggest threats to be is the destruction of their habitats the bee flora in here much of the trade is even more imminent because fruit orchards in this state are often full of insecticides and pesticides we have seen that in our research our boats are insecticide President Commission of the of. The species of bees that the government conservation programs are focused on are italian being the socalled Apis Mellifera during the 1960 india imported them in hopes of motivating people to breed be scum martially while indian honeybees produce an average of 7 to 10 kilograms of honey for colony annually mellophone are these produced 3 times as much each year but this is also how honey became an inexpensive industrial goods today beekeepers deceive between 60 to 65. 00 rupees per kilogram of funny thats around 69. 00 to 75. 00 euro cents the prices have also contributed to the decreasing number of small scale beekeepers in here much of the announcing from them issues the collective wants to change that there. Will both. Be a demand of unease more in the market. And to meet their demand. The myths different different but ideas of money together then process it to make it look similar. Its got to be and based and what you see in the market is honey in the shows which are the same throughout the year how can that be. An Initiative Aims to aid in the conservation of native bees which are considered more robust and resilient than italian be they also dont require a large expanse of land. The regions gardens suffer ice as habitats for the small colony that are needed to the area as it is indian bees are armed against and Climate Change and the news of their positive got it just takes the spreading. Help me with the hive that i used to have in my old house so people are more good people are more responsive to. The initiative is involved with various projects including the womens groups that expound on the work of beekeepers like. Manufacturing live bomb and candle provides many women with their 1st opportunity to earn their own money since they so everyone benefits from the preservation of in be the beekeeper and of course the bees themselves they all do their part in maintaining biodiversity. Nocturnal species like bats are also struggling with changing Living Conditions like pollution is a major threat to these animals scientists in the netherlands seem to have found a solution to this theyre helping create battery treats not only so that the bats are safe but also to make sure that their role in the local ecosystem is preserved. If there is one. And doing especially. The figures at least by. Far away from the bright lights of amsterdam ducted commute is after a creature that likes to operate under the cover of darkness. And he is studying how lights are affecting bats so far his team has found that the 19 species of bats found in the netherlands react in widely different ways. Lets have a very strong response to light those actually driven by mostly by fear of predators so if youre about that flies very slowly you better hide away and dont show yourself in the light because its its risky however if youre a bat that flies very fast and very agile and you dont need to be afraid that much for predators so you actually like taking away. From the slow flying species an explorer giving its to do these already common. But species and thats one of course not a good thing in terms of biodiversity you actually reducing biodiversity that nocturnal species are sensitive to the blue range of light as they have evolved to use the moon to navigate and brag of the blue the more distracting it is to test how species respond to other parts of the spectrum the researchers have put up almost 200. 00 lamp posts around the country that shine a range of colors. If you take away the blue part of the spectrum and and compensate by a bit more rants which you actually see here. And it may actually be less intrusive for these species not all species may not perceive this like this intense and thats exactly what we have observed. A different kind of red light is all the rage in amsterdam and the citys nocturnal inhabitants are out in all the splendor. Light here has become so bright it is now considered a pollutant. The world over brightness and luminosity are growing at a rate of 2 percent per year. As the night gets more illuminated studies are linking Light Pollution to destructive Natural Cycles as well as Mental Health in humans. The International DarkSky Association has called for a massive reduction in light leakage as the planet is becoming so bright borders can be clearly seen from space. But the netherlands is at the forefront of fighting like pollution in europe with some of his the ballot is even switching off lights completely on parts of the highway. And there are church outside eindhoven to farmers a nickel and her husband carlos are also members of the Community Fighting for darkness and its bouts for reasons of their own. Tried to. Kill well you know the harmful insects in the natural way so we use. Insects to cool to kill other insects and thats where also the bats common because birds eat lots of cocks 1st and 1st they actually eat the roots of to fruit trees especially the trees and so if the bats in a lot of schaefers we dont have those terrible groups in the ground eating on groups to. Sheets so. Thats why we like best. Thats what is natural best decides and are an essential part of how the ecosystem of the altered functions. On this farm even has a bat who had dell to make the mammals feel extra welcome. You can see over here. That there are bets living in the better job because this is whats over on the move. There excrements their pool. The Community Around has installed special bat friendly lights in the area to make sure the animal stay put as night falls. Around 10 pm the bats check out of the herd and disposed through the farm ready for a meal and to play their role in the ecosystem. Maurice donners is a researcher and signifies the company in the design the lights around the orchard. He explains that lighting is more than merely installing glowing lamps. We need lighting but we do future do with sustainable way. Show obviously energy efficiency. In. Great to Cradle Solutions but also in the direct effect which article nothing you have to affect all although ecosystem and not just on people. But some districts in the netherlands have in fact become darker as a result of such initiatives as satellite images show giving some of its residents and its resident bats the beloveds night sky back. Some 12000 years ago when human beings the hunter gatherers invented agriculture they were surrounded by nature at home and at work but the Bigger Picture is very different of course most of us who live in cities have little access to wast green spaces bollings allotment gardens of a breath of fresh air in a world that continues to concretize at a breakneck speed.
