The show today. Well take a look at a cleverly designed and heavy sense of green street sweeping devising gonna. Find out why farmers in the netherlands are big fans of bad see. And hear about how people in the ivory coast are protecting baby turtles. An hour of kenya the east african country has a high Domestic Energy demand i mean many sectors including the t. V. Industry people are kings of final tonnages to fossil fuels kenya is africas leading producer in cary coal country there are several t. Processing companies that are using Sustainable Energy sources from the local area lets go have some tea. When the sun shines the rolling landscape. Comes to mind the fields are covered in. The special climate here makes it kenyas most important green region. Really has a plantation here hes one of hundreds of thousands of small will the farmers who make a living. T. Is the base just north of income the main source of income i have the buoys completed and ive been. For financial support. Have been. Oughtnt to that have a sunny day factory here walk us divide up the leaves into batches and prepare them for the drank process. The factory uses a great deal of firewood but because of deforestation wood is becoming us cust resource in the region. So the fact she has begun replacing it with a brick its made out of sugarcane residue you. About the records compacted more to grow a lot of Storage Space and there its also very easy to transport them know what there is about and from units you know we talk with record were able to you know its more in a do them by word. Liberal get some meat in a nearby fuck tree the end made of sugar can find us a west product that is left over in sugar can production Sugar Factories often dump the residue at the roadside where explored and emits the Greenhouse Gases come on the yolk side and me thin. But in this Processing Plant it is turned into a fine resource fasts the sugarcane residue is dried and shredded. Then its pressed into greek its system made out of a west production no additional land has to be put under cultivation. Diaz chavez is an expert for Sustainable Energy and has been assessing the environmental benefits of briquettes. This is human language circular economy so this is what we want to promote with bio energy and biocon and how you can really have a rounded cycle for biomass back to the tea factory it has been able to replace one 5th of its firewood with prek. And other t. Factories are following suit training their workers on how to make this speech the hope is that one day they will be able to face out firewood completely. If they succeed it will help preserve the remaining woodlands and protects the habitat of numerous animals and plants it would also benefit to the Tea Plantations and farmers like its a cubit. Is it when they use the brigades the company. That uses the expensive and this is money and the money saved goes to the farmers for the environment and the team could use in kenya the british are sustainable solution with Great Potential the potential to make kenya t. Even. In germany like in many other places forest fires are a growing problem so understanding how best to help for us recover i regenerate is more important than ever a group of scientists decided to see what would happen if a forest destroyed by fire well left more or less change all devices to several yes we may think we are vast in many ways but as is so often the case when given the chance Mother Nature will heal herself even from damage caused by humans like us. Whether beech trees maples or estens janette blue murder and even are always glad to see a new member of the family arrive about 12 months ago the 2 researchers began documenting changes big and small to this section of a forest ravaged by fire. We got what we hoped for i mean the ecosystem is starting to recover and certain species are quickly appearing and spreading such as these aspens theyve now brought about changes to the area that are in turn helpful for other species. Good 6 and in august 28th seen a forest fire raised almost 4 square kilometers of woodland outside the town of twine pleats in eastern germany an area larger than 500 soccer pitches the usual practice after a forest fire is to clear the entire area and replant trees as seen on this private land but not in this case thanks to a government funded project here dead trees are left standing. Local forest think it is testing an alternative solution removing most of the dead pine trees and planting other species in their place the idea is to create a mixed forest thats also home to oaks poplars and other deciduous trees. So i can i 1st want to just see which species of tree i could use and how old they need to be before being transplanted carrying out tests is important to get the full picture 1st. And thats when the forest abroad in the expertise of these researchers theyre here to find out the best way for a forest to be able to regenerate and become more climate resistant with or without human assistance. The researchers take a hands off approach limiting their work to observing which plants and animals settle in the habitat its a rare opportunity. Its now standard procedure i just see to it that we repair the damage that humans have done all too frequently we do not give nature the time or space to do that itself and that deprives us of the chance to learn from nature to forgive him for all the false stuff and. Among the things they have learned is that in addition to providing shade dead wood also in the hands of the soil when it falls to the ground it creates more humus which gives the soil more moisture the work carried out on his test areas is on a smaller scale than is common in conventional Forest Management theyre really accessible by car and hes a wreck did a fence around the forest to keep larger animals at bay he left a number of dead trees standing leaves have also been spread to keep the soil moist and protected during drought year were seeing large scale forest fires in the region and thats going to continue so we need to learn how to respond to. That and thats why researchers in that blue murder is here shes been collecting data on soil humidity and temperature which plants and animals settle there and how all these factors impact on the ecosystem 8 other Research Institutes are also involved in the project the data gathered over the projects 5 year time frame is being collected at her university and it was filed in nearby lynn but it happened habits like death data shows that natural reach even nation far exceeds the number of trees planted by humans. Weve seen up to 3 times the amount. Naturally resettling can head to the rhine or oak trees that were planted on the area i sent it off to after i think of wooden. The researchers are also part of an International Network theyre eager to hear about the experiences of colleagues in the us and mediterranean countries and to learn if and how forest ecosystems can be made more robust. So if you wish to go on thoughts coolio work is really important it can help us to compare biomes or large ecological zones so that we can discuss common patterns or and also told. One thing the number of studies show is that even the remains of trees killed or damaged in severe fires help the forest ecosystem rebound which supports the argument of letting nature be. Now we are equal africa love people will take initiatives to help protect the environment our next report looks at a young innovator gonna who has a truck with a view of finding Cost Effective solutions and sustainable ones to the problems facing his community his latest will brings out a bicycle that doubles as a little sweep heres this weeks doing. This is no ordinary thought i can trade on. This weeping bicycle collects trash as it travels the streets of a crown its inventor friend dr is on a mission he wants to help clean up gun us capital. And im not happy youre gonna go out its a sad day when i see so many robberies and im going to have this so sad and i want to see someone east from another country broken our lawn i feel Like Fighting but i want it off the very same so bill is my New Invention i am i believe i come if i can build a country all i can put an end but come to something to do that to risk a big risk on the streets. People it is sweeping bicycles together from discarded bikes and scrap mason. It takes the south to engineer around a month to complete one. Its just one of several inventions hes working on. Friend doc and hopes he will one day own a factory and his eco bike idea will sweep across the nation. And how about you if youre also doing your bit tell us about it visit our website or send us a tweet. After doing your bit. Sharing your stories. Pollution is a problem all over the world and comes in a range of forms some obvious like Plastic Waste in our rivers and oceans all of a cloud of smoke billowing out of factories but even some things we consider useful can be the source of pollution and have their own kind of impacts on our wellbeing we shed a little light on the issue in a new segment called eco tech. Gazing at a sky resplendent with stars. Something many people around the world are sadly no longer able to enjoy. And thats thanks to artificial light while there are no up to date figures available in 24. 00 team the skies over hong kong were already 2 times brighter than they might be naturally. We suffer sleep deprivation from too much artificial light including that emitted by smartphones. It also disrupts the orientation of nocturnal birds and insects. Our Energy Consumption could also be cut drastically by ensuring responsible outdoor lighting. Priest daughters it would help if advertising signs and building facades were until newman aged all my long. And if nighttime lights were used only for the places where its really needed. Some cities have already committed to minimizing artificial light such as fulda in germany its among the 29. 00 places so far to earn recognition as International Dark sky communities. Cities like these make it possible to see this starlit sky again and reset the. Body clocks of us creatures to their natural rhythm. Dock this not only helps us get a better nights sleep its crucial for maintaining a balance in nature Light Pollution poses a serious threat. To scenes like bots however scientists in the netherlands seems out found a solution to this by creating special refuge areas for the flying mammals and that isnt to keeping the bats safe they also make sure the. System is preserved. And theres one. And their special one i figure is at least 5. Far away from the bright lights of amsterdam dr commute is after creature that likes to operate under the cover of darkness. He is studying how lights are affecting bats so far his team has found that the 19 species of bat found in the netherlands react in widely different ways. Lets have a very strong response to light theres 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 is very low it dont need to be afraid that much for predators so you actually like taking away. From the slow flying species and explain giving it to do these already common. Species and thats one of course not a good thing in terms of bio diversity actually reducing bio diversity. Nocturnal species are sensitive to the blue range of light as they have evolved to use the moon to navigate the brighter 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 to a new part of the spectrum and and compensate by a bit more rats which you actually see here. And it may actually be less intrusive for these not the most creatures not all species may not perceive this like this intense and thats exactly what we have observed. 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. On their arch outside eindhoven farmers are nickel and carlos face are also members of the Community Fighting for darkness and its bouts for reasons of their own tried to. Kill well you would see the harmful insects in the natural ways to reuse. Insects to cool to kill other insects and thats where also the bats common because birds eat lots of sherry 1st and the 1st they actually eat the roots of to fruit trees especially the apple trees and so if the bets cook shaffers we dont have those terrible groups in the ground eating on groups of 2 trees so. Thats why we like best. Thats what is natural pesticides and are an essential part of how the ecosystem of the altered functions. In this farm even has a bad hotel to make the mammals feel extra welcome you can see over here. That that there are Better Living in the better job because the civil rights over you on the move. There excrements there prove. The Community Around has installed a special back friendly lights in the area to make sure the animal stay put as night falls. You know something. Around 10 pm the bats check out of the hotel 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. You know. He explains that lighting is more than merely installing glowing lamps. We need lighting but we do solution do it in a sustainable way. Show obviously in energy efficiency. In. Cradle to cradle type of solutions but also in the direct effect is fighting the thing we have to optimal effect on our own the whole 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. Like these beautiful birds returning to africa we had 2 of each in the southwest could the water meet another group of people who invest a lot of time and energy to help keep animals safe is birds are having fun here in this case sea turtles these mining reptiles spend most of your lives in water but often those lives depend on them surviving a treacherous call to the surf after hatching on the stand just as well theyve got help us to help them make it safely on that epic little journey. Dog mrs fallen in granbury be a coastal village and take the every night these men are out skier in the beach looking for sea turtles their Wildlife Conservation is.

Until just a few years ago sea turtles and the eggs were hunted and eaten in granbury the i always knew that i was a poacher i would sell lots of them 5 or 6 days.
