Drugs a growing problem due to Climate Change its an uphill battle. Farmers that we have made across the country are not really aware of that part of club reaching some of them lead the one percent of them dont even believe that. The activists are showing the farmers other ways they can help fight the effects of Global Warming for example with Tree Planting initiatives some 500 species have been planted so far. Well portugal is one of the countries in Southern Europe that has really profited from the years of tourism both the sea coast and the capital lays born a magnet for visitors yet since the start of the coronavirus pandemic the number of tourists has dropped dramatically and hot profitable industry thats right so. Well sometimes what is bad for business is good fun nature unless for instance in these down on the set of groups of everywhere where im also started returning. For the people of list then this is nothing short of a small miracle dolphins have returned to the river take us as cheery. Many of the locals thrilled. Im from. Seeing all these dolphins is an incredible feeling of the song. As a biologist inish klara often went dolphin watching in the azores these days she works as a sailing strata. But because of the pandemic finding work is tough there are very few tourists. But in asia and her boss say theres a Silver Lining for the environment. This year there are more sardines and mongrel in the ocean. Thats what dolphins like feeding on. A massive 50 kilo stone passes too and huge sea bass and weve never seen this many sardines 1st of. The night i can tell isnt only thought of just when joyce birdwatching in the take a stelter. Today hes spotted a group of flamingos a mere 20 minute car ride from Lisbon City Center if. Not it works for an agency promoting sustainable tourism. As well to take its river delta is a 14000 hector nature is. The good Conservation Area is even larger. The pine ever set as one of the most common birds and havent seen these wetlands which are home to 200 species of my great great bats. Some 60000. 00 black tailed godwit come each winter they are an endangered species. And a flamingo colony raises its young hare and stays around. Her but this paradise is under threat. Because it is government has plans to build a new airport in monte should beyond the Vasco Da Gama bridge right next to the wetlands endangering this important ecosystem. 8 conservation groups are now taking the government to court. Taking action because of the many planes that will be landing beside these wetlands. Not only dangerous for the birds the birds themselves will also pose a serious danger to the aircraft or some poor. Makes no sense to build a new airport here now that lisbon has just been declared europes green capital. More. The quality of the river takers has greatly improved according to ines thats why so many dolphins have returned. And the fact that no noisy cruise ships are harboring in the portuguese capital helps to dolphins are very sensitive to noise. I mean my large ships are very invasive. Dolphins are disturbed by them and avoid swimming up the rest of the margin or i wont list them all thirtys have plates that by 2022. Dr cruise ships here in the new september no right beside listons old town must turn off their motors to reduce emissions ok cause that every cruise ship docked in lisbon will have to be connected to the electricity grid during you so for oxide emissions and cut pollution in the city well see the after supper of the of the current. Will not end in ash have both sides will keep their promise set list and can live up to its name of europes green capsule. Dolphins are truly amazing creatures well lets return to the african continent did you know that Church Congregations in ethiopia play a key role in Environmental Protection it all started when deforestation began to deplete the countrys indigenous tree stocks it was a congregations that fought to preserve their local forests and tame species diversity in coffee go into south go into where we found a community where more than 30 different kinds of trees are still growing and it turns out its not so hard to do. For almost 25 years by governor merriam go but as a last he has been turned into a Church Forest some 200 monks living here in this altar thats the way he took community in northern ethiopia. For centuries monks up reserve the forests around their churches taking care of the citizens as being a spiritual ritual for members of this faith to view the natural forest as a symbol of heaven. The ministry hands wanted and its a 3. 00. This is on and on the shape of the ministry we are committed to date and some more to transfer our history and heritage we have god from our fathers and a responsibility to plants and puts a new trees well over the old trees. Committees and. Thanks to their efforts many church compounds both of large indigenous trees such as the white pier or the iron tree earlier africana for example some of the trees around here are 100 years old. If your p. Has less than 5 percent forest cover down from 40 percent in 1990 trees are cut down for charcoal and firewood and to make way for farming and grazing land but to protect the church flores have remained intact the south gone the region has an estimated 1500. 00 tiny charred forest. The field be an altar dog still why he do churches established a commission to help further conserve them. Keep floor walk or is in charge of Forest Protection in the community they dont want to force their kid in the church therefore we have to. First we have to maintain. Well to protect the Church Forest its sense and secondly we have to replicate the experience of the church to our community. The monks have created new partnerships with local communities and schools. And drama for tree sessions a part of the environmental education. In the 2 years since the Church Community project was founded they have managed to create 3 plantations in the school grounds. The project is always intended to improve the Living Standards of local people so as to reduce over the crandon its an existing forest resources. With additional funding from a german protest and Aid Organization 25. 00 women here each received 3 sheep. Some have seen as grown 2 heads of nearly 10 i used to say i couldnt said mood and so i thought for my family that is what my livelihood depended on but now its the judge believes that since accepted and respected by the community that conservation activities will serve as role models. But even with their efforts convincing people here to preserve the forest instead of creating new farmland remains a challenge. We here at eco african never said protecting the environment was easy this program should be a constant reminder of how important it is to preserve nature ill leave you with those thoughts as i say goodbye i hope you tune into our next show this is now its signing out from the fawcett park in Lagos Nigeria thank you all for watching remember you can also discuss the biggest topics with us on our social media platforms and if you have a great idea for protecting the environment write to us i am sandra teen over here and it is a goodbye from uganda.
