For decades the lake was ruthlessly overfished that has greatly reduced biodiversity the i. U. C. N. Says more than three quarters of fish species unique to Lake Victoria are threatened with extinction. Thats destroying livelihoods among the local population but new kinds of fish farms could help turn the situation around and. This fish took took is arriving in nairobi with the fish delicacy that was never so freshly available here. Its brought a load of to lobby four hundred kilometers from Lake Victoria and. New type of cooling box in the cargo hold makes it possible. For what we had had difficulty in rebuilding our use a basket kind of basket you could carry sometimes i could get finished and then again we have to look at not great but we can be free and i guess i am a match for you only rationing because you want to get to the program maybe even if you just dont fret very selective. The pressure to lafayette comes from these fish cages in Lake Victoria. Five years ago just off the island of fun gano brother and sister team gilbert and michelle in bayeux began to farm fish. They were the first to implement cage aquaculture here now theyre harvesting some two hundred tons of fish annually to support directly on ice. We want to make sure that less species listed as right now almost sixty percent forty to sixty percent of all fish that is caught hes lost because of so what were doing is were creating a call chain for fish and unbroken cold chain stretching all the way from boat to consumer all right so that. This way its its going to be. Lakeview fisheries uses the latest technology. Like this transportable cooler made by a finnish startup. It has a cooling mechanism which is patented where using our technology partners. That keeps the box cool for up to seven days. This sense is that able to detect when the box is open and when its closed. And send messages plus a medicine to the tempest and the ball the whole time so at any time were very aware of the freshness of the fish. The to lobby are hatched and grown in ponds on the island before being transferred to their floating cages. The embryos now based in the us michele is a data analyst and gilbert a doctor who created the fish farm in part for altruistic reasons. A few fisheries is not just my familys Fish Pond Lake the fisheries is our communities fish farm this is where were from we want to see out people our community that is marginalised we want to see our Community Grow want to see them be empowered to want to see them the able to have food for their tables. Most of the people on am func are no rely on fishing for their livelihood. Theyve been doing it the same way for generations casting their nets out from the shore and hauling them in by hand nothing if weve been in this one maybe were going to get to nothing in this one because its something sometime we cant got to be in want to. So we suffer. Yes. It takes two hours of strenuous work to reel in the nets. You through what were seeing. Not being a little. Bit lucky so you still these people are looking for mind and begin to get my good days not be. The days when fishermen here landed tons of perch are long gone. During the one nine hundred eighty s. Lake Victoria Perch exports were booming. Sustainability wasnt a widely known concept back then and the lay. Was fish to clean. The processing plants lining the shores were forced to shut down. Many of those inhabitants have fallen into poverty. There isnt even enough fish now to eat let alone sell for money. Michelle and gilbert m. B. O. Turn a profit with their farms and want to expand their operation. With support from germanys g. R. I. Z. Development agency theyre building a new sustainably operating refrigerated warehouse to freeze their fish and. Design is very abundant over here so what really makes sense is to be able to power using using the sun and so we. Let be affected by the politicians so quite excited that mean you will be able to buy good solar and were not too dependent on. The embryos want to turn their fish farm into africas biggest and theyre hoping to win the people of them over to fish farming. Hoping to feed is that helping communities fishing communities from will now start to see this as a new way you think they will start to see the effort but. Theyre not the only beneficiaries. Now these diners in the capital nairobi can feast on fresh fish from Lake Victoria. It. I think you can.

Thirty two prefab homes now house the one hundred thirty two villagers. Theyve adapted to the new circumstances. She for much too thinks its unfair that the villagers have had to shoulder a third of the relocation costs but still hes happy with the outcome. We need a lot he said new site because we are away from the third. Personally at least four new generation children and if we couldnt do it it was hard to see the.

The new electric lighting is one example of how people faced with the challenges of planet change can take the initiative to improve their situation further up the hill theyve started planting pineapple its a cash crop just like the fish they now farm as well. But still the new settlement is very different from the old village on the coast the fish farm is just a murky pond after all many of the villagers miss the old life the smells and the sounds its a group based in the city but this one is so simple its not just the. And now here we dont have some fun time like that just comment just gets fees to go home. There we spend time in the sea then come to call until long man including. Dozens of villages on fijis islands are facing the same fate as the residents of. Sometimes like see from our two they go back to swim in the sea and to look at the ruins of their homes. When i was born here we are born about they do you see in. All our day to be. That identity is also tied to the graves of their ancestors. Soon they need to be moved before the sea claims them as well.

This weekend on global ideas series we head to the caribbean island of st lucia. Put on protective gear before he went to meet some potentially aggressive creature. Beekeeping as a major source of income in villages on the island but beekeepers in form of the mike are suffering from damage from ever more frequent storms until recently they had no means of recouping their losses. In. The freezer walter edwins life. Has been keeping them on the island of st lucia for over thirty years straight. When honey harvest is good it provides an adequate income for him and his wife. But when a hurricane hits the island not only his life but also his livelihood are in danger. So they took out a livelihood protection insurance policy with the Munich Climate Insurance Initiative after the storm. Was i got a call from the Insurance Company from its ever knowing that i mean tied to get be out. That be all to help me. Quite a lot because i was able to kill might be easily been myself at that time walter edwins annual premium is the minimum of around thirty euros that allows him to claim as much as three hundred euros. Examples of the cash unable to be keith or to buy syrup to reinvigorate his b. Colonies after the disastrous storm. The tropical storms are the only problem he has to contend with. Its become harder for the bees to find nectar because the weather has also become more capricious. Right now its supposed to be sent lucias dry season. But there are constant shadows. And that means less money. Climate change is affecting us very much in st lucia because in the years when you get too much of the green they need to affect. The plot was in time the drought. Is beyond then its difficult. To turn the caribbean island is seen as a tourist paradise but over a quarter of the population lives below the poverty line. Climate is high.

This is satellite weather data alone decides whether or not and how much is paid to claimants. Nobody is coming to look at your property to see how much damage was done if there was a lot of rainfall or a high wind speed the probability that you had a lot of damage is pretty high and this is why we developed this product so that people can get an instant payout to help them start recovering great after the storm strikes. But so far theyve been few customers. One reason is the ingrained mistrust of insurance schemes in the region. The have the project team is working with local Insurance Companies to reach more people in the caribbean. People maybe.
