hello and welcome to african environment magazine. corporate used by mtv in uganda channels d v in nigeria. and dw in germany, i am sandra tree. nobody and with me today as always is michael present a crease. hey chris, how are you today? just fine. sandra, thank you so very. a much on the one. welcome to all our viewers, our debt. we have a lot in store for you on today's program. so let's take a quick look at what we have coming up in. i jerry, i will meet a young activist campaign in for the environment. any rhonda will learn how to preach it from land can be restored according to our re sent you and report climate change is having a growing impact on the african continent between the most vulnerable the hottest science base climate information can help build resilience. a cornerstone of climate change adaptation. what enables people in the villages and communities to understand what climate changes, and at the same time to do something about it. they gambia environmental monitoring system science project in west africa is also tried to involve the local population in the process with one waiting for every change as carefully noted m u h week cardiac to clarity and at the see not david davis collect environmental data from the aquatic an terrestrial ecosystems in 6 locations along the gumbo river. right now i'm recording the parameters we have here, which is their temperature humidity, the wind speed, the wind chill, the air, treasure, altitude, do point, and of in direction. the effects of climate change are causing hardship for many who live near the river. for centuries, they help subsist that on small scale fishing and farming man groups, which will to salt out of the water made that possible. but due to the rise and sea level and extensive droughts, the reverse salt content got so high, it's killed many cheese. that's been disastrous for pharmacy like fat to mata barrow ha, car, or data. we used to harvest rice here down, but now the yield is low. m will went among gross, we're healthy in big nowhere, no problem. so wondering why they are now dead and our crops are not doing well when they, when enrolled on it. not a lot of research has been done on bio diversity, india environment in the gumbo. so that makes predicted the impact climate change might have on local ecosystems. more difficult, that inspired 10 young scientists to launch dead gems initiative jazz is an acronym program, their environmental measurement systems project. and it is the research project whereby we're collecting environmental data along there began me understand this is not an yellow fluctuations happening, but what away is almost 1200 kilometers long. so the institutes rely on the support of community based groups and locals, like c d, double a journalist by trade double works as a citizen scientist, 20 kilometers from the capital banjo. my role as it citizen data collector is to collect data and then send to them every week and also to and some students along with me to also leak on know how to collect data. i decide to participate in this project. because if you look at this area, you will see that it's already dead. here in the lower river division, the die back is extensive. mangrove stamps, daughter am otherwise empty landscape, leaving the coastline exposed. it's no longer possible to maintain fills through title irrigation from the river. the loss of the mangroves also means a loss of habitat and breeding ground for fish and other aquatic life. the fresh water fish have moved further upstream with the help of international and deals and volunteers. and so my not double hopes to restore the mongol forest but. ready with a different, more robust variety thanks for the did as required, regressing should we have been able to know the salinity level of, of the water and psychology. i've been able to identify a dispute use of mangrove re, half within our echoes houston. they observe a lot of sort a lag before when there was no 3 salt in tucson, his ha, we're now housed among those are sorta label the absolve. little sort that has made a decrease in salinity level within the woman rice for too much a barrel. was when quin rice here for 20 years? halston newly planted, redman gross will give her crops a fighting chance. yo while we thank god, what a new man gross along the river. i asked a grueling less salt will get through courtney elaine and while wound since august 2021 more than 850000 mongrels have implanted in the cumbia of a delta in order to conserve deco system. the symbiosis of scientific knowledge and local engagement is barren food. why do we actually need climate activist? what can they do better van politicians and scientist? for one thing, they speak for the our own generation. our generation that has to cope with the world will leave them, but more importantly, the money to motivate other young people. and my compatriots, identical or ludvigsen says about what lies ahead of us in terms of environmental protection. can all be done by the few echo africa visited her. ah, my name is ally this, i'd indicate i'm an equal feminist climate. just the suck to the center, including water using a video blog as her fighting to orlando. so at dinner, k is one of africa's most vocal environmental activists. having studied agricultural, the 27 year old has always had a love for the environments. but it was after meeting great at the, at the 2019 cop conference in madrid that she was inspired to take further action. standing alone, she started, the fight is for future movement inland. jerry and all, what we want is to have climate. justice is where we are going that might as the most, irrespective of the country where we have frozen all day. um, oh i reason we are all immune are the same, the one year into pool testing every friday and giving talks, orlando so realised that there was a lack of knowledge about climate change on the continent. so she started her own pan african climate justice movement and website where she writes about how african specifically is affected. just like the clashes between the for my son, it's min, the survival issue. for mom, full resource control, the strength, you lay chad and every other crisis happening within africa day goes on hot. let people get all this turned out. we have a problem in our society. and we need to solve this problem right now. as an echo feminists or louder sues work also focuses on how environmental rights are connected with women's rights. she regularly visits female farmers to teach them how to care for their environment and adapt bits out to the changes. her greatest passion is inspiring children and getting them involved in climate activism. right at schools, she teaches about recycling and planting trees at fairly soon. so i and i know the importance of flatten off trees. i lecture is bird me to start cutting down she iron plants room, see when i grow up our plants, trees in my house through just up arrows for a ladder suit. climate education is the only way to secure their future in thickets . to con, it will be in this family, dad will be the one at the forefront of the climate change justice movements. we advocate in that different perspective, orlando. so beneath that everyone, regardless of age can and should do something to protect a planet. oh, good. so why no stop right now? climate change is needed to set the necessary changes in motion. only a combination of all of them can slow down the increase in global temperature bit by bit. but crease even if we stoped and meet in greenhouse gases to day. the rise in global temperatures would want to begin to flatten after a few years. there is a time long between what we do and when we feel the results. this is why it is urgent to up now and why under this plan is a walking, a new mobility concept that can be implemented quickly and sustainably. best animation shows what the host clock's in hamburg would look like. if all the cars and traffic signs were gone. making room for trees and graph. it could be a square paradise for cyclists and pedestrians. but it actually looks like this, much to the displeasure of hamburg graphic designer, yan kaminsky. he would like to see fundamental changes, which is why he began making animations of how he believed streets should be been on fun, out of points over going the project got started with the beginning of the coping. pandemic smirked to miss. i looked around and thought of, i don't want to just sit and wait for the changes we need, like i want to contribute read august i and as a visual designer, i can change urban spaces up or before. and um, john kaminsky thinks great streets and dreary squares should be transformed around the world. or at least in animations to start like here in new york city. and in belgium's capital, brussels, and germany's capital berlin. the graphic designer launched social media accounts under the name utopia. for bicyclist. as paul may up trucks was far, we need more space for bikes and more bicycles so that their genius can take effect for some talk and call their low emissions system and take up little space compared to other modes of transportation plots and fog light. and can be used for many things on us as fuse outage in that spot. young kaminsky fission is already reality in terms neighbor, the netherlands. for example, in the countries port largest city attract where a 125000 people cycle daily. whatever the, whether that's more than a 3rd of the city's population communication expert chris franklin worked for the dutch cycling empathy, a network that advocates for greater use of bicycles. he spent much of his time on the bradenberg the most heavily traveled bicycle path in the netherlands. a good 33000 to buy craters used every day. but before it used to be a mountain lane road with heavy traffic, like the one found in all cities. unfortunately, a lot of cities cycling is still just for the fit in the brave and the really risks taller and people that are willing to rub shoulders with motor vehicles. but that's not the vast majority of people that live in that city. they want to be able to tune out and just enjoy their commutes. and when you provide safe 2nd separated space for cycling, you're going to attract more of those, those casual users. a lot of women, a lot of children, a lot of the elderly people with physical disabilities. in 2019 to runts biggest parking garage for both cars opened and tracked, displays tell cyclists if any spaces are freed up to 12500 bike riders can park here. right next to the main station. chris franklin says the garage was another reason why the netherlands can be described as the bike friendly in fact, the country has become known for its bike friendly and study pleasing solutions such as the dicey shippers bridge, which passes over the roof of a school and connects to neighborhoods for many new tract cycling it's more convenient than shore is just so much more convenient to travel around the city on a bike and so much quicker and more. fund hambrick is still far from being cyclists, paradise, but young kaminsky hoped to at least bring attention to urban mobility question. nearly 2 funds of africa is a working population are employed in funding. so the sectors, economic importers can't be overstated. it also provides food for millions of fundies, of course, but climate change pause as a growing threat to agriculture, drought stricken soil that has been leached or it's nutrients cannot produce a decent harvest. so how can food security be maintained? here is one answer from render coaxing. a decent harvest out of the soil is tough here and the mountainous chicken b district of north and rwanda. eugene hi. dina manor and his wife worked from dan till dusk. their field are on steep slopes, so when it rains, the water flushes the soil down into the valley. if things don't change the farm of fears, his family could face starvation. since this is their sole source of income, the only thing he thought you look at these bananas liked watching and we used to harvest banana bunches weighing over 50 kilos insulation. so looking at this one, you can see we have a problem. we can them a situation made less by climate change. heavy rainfall, alternating with extreme dr. period has rendered entire slope baron, meaning then along as to the bowl performing your mother. it's difficult to farm in these mountainous areas with such excessive rainfall. it causes land of crops and fields to be frequently washed away, not to mention the loss of life among local people. no, no under these conditions, farmers killers hope to produce harvests without a sustainable solution to all these problems. not, you know, you wouldn't it, this is where the green to can be. program comes in agriculture, birth visits, farmers to show them how to respond to the changing weather conditions and how to protect their soil soon. this is hope the project will benefit are on half a 1000000 people across the 800 square kilometers that the jacoby district covers. it has the budget of nearly 30000000 euros and it's funded by the u. ends. green climate fun with no time to waste every one pitches in to put the expert insights into practice. to the hunger learning the end up with a it increases our awareness of climate change and how to adapt our farming methods to it. tomorrow. we taught how to restore are abandoned, learned how to fight erosion during the rainy season and how to store rainwater for irrigation during the dry season. yamazik to let you know it's very useful is up when you hit one key that the build terraces on the slopes. this allows more rain fall to sleep, into the soil, and slows down the water flow into the valley. plus the terraces, the easier to plant crops on or is until trolls also been created to slow down. and the vert, fast flowing run off water. that water can then be collected and stored in underground tanks to be used later. if i regain that at the thought that i says, has it double impact has impact to reduce the soil? erosion daughter. tain in the side, contributed look to the productivity, and also the physician, a pickle, different sizes, a going where due to the, establish those benches terraces. out on the terraces. the farmers also plant additional trees. their roots will over time, protect the soil from erosion, while their leaves will provide shade during dry season. for the soul, steam, mice for longer. mays, beans, and potatoes go far better, and the farmers can improve their yields many tract of land. they used to lie fallow and now flourishing again. the variety of vegetables leading to improve nutrition amongst the local population. in salary survey, the harvest that we're expecting this season is a miracle for me. from this land was no longer usable. but since the arrival of green to cumby climate change is no longer stopping us from growing crops, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! just look at what we have in these fields, shown in the further boost to the farmer's livelihood. new t plantations are being used up on that land. they had long ceased to be fertile, and there are more ideas in the pipeline. we can recommend any area in the throb which is appropriate, appropriate for protect the forestry. appropriate for such a for a 3 appropriate for contribution a look across the valley and beyond reveals the dividends of the green to can be project. the. our brown of depleted slopes is gradually disappearing, replaced by lush greenery and farm land. with some depend on healthy soil. others depend on an interest marine ecosystem, but there is only a limited amount of fish in our oceans, and those resources are being depleted. he does right sandra, according to the w. w. f. system multi over fission, an illegal fission of volleyball fish talks is to blame for the destruction of many marine echo systems with the help of digital technology, a project on south africa's cape once to end the suffering of local fishermen that 5 30 in the morning at the port of cape town, while most of the city still sleeves skipping jeffrey fraser and his crew prepared to put out to see the 10 member crew are going, handling fishing for kate green. they're hoping for a good catch today. they did visit with also the patients of was good if you have a good, a good good but you know, get, get love if there might be some truth in that. but it's a little fishy to lay all the blame on the skipper. conditions for artisan or commercial fishing on the cape have grown tougher over the years. possibly climate change over fishing of the bytes. change of current. young. plenty of reasons i can give you. they also struggle with fishing quotas and market access . jeffrey fraser wants to improve conditions for his crew and has found the solution in the upper lobby at of a lobby, which means someone who fishes in the local language connects small. so fishes directly with consumers. daniel smith helped found the app and the n g o of the same name, which began as a university of cape town research project in 2017 karen's on africa under on the world's small scale fishes have been excluded. and struggle for access to market. i believe you came about recognizing that there was this need and there's an opportunity to then connect these small scale fishes digitally to markets and for them to be able to access and, and own their own data. in practice, this means jeffrey fraser and his crew consolidate daily cats to restaurants and private directly through the upper lower be cutting out the middleman. there will be quite a good alpha that we know what we going for and what we get seen and the price is much greater than we get from the local buyers. so for us it's a big green and the red sprang says middleman only pay fishes roughly a euro kilo for k bring worth on of a low b. the crew connect over 3 times faster. that means they can generate the same revenue with a smaller catch up a little b as finance, through donations and outside funding. the n t o. behind the app helps the fishes with infrastructure and logistics catches go by refrigerated truck to decentralized refrigerated storage facilities. short holes help reduce the carbon footprint of a little bit employee. hon goliath confirms the ways of the catch. he comes from a fishing family and wants to help his community. farmer fisher and i want to remain your future. so he restrict or walk bought, or fishing, or do or thing for as long as are extra from the fishing industry. what i will be doing is to just assure starts to work toward the approaches between after we get the fish and the end consumer, which is at dylan's fall generations room. and that's exactly what happens the catches from geoffrey phrases, boat and other, a below be fishes, go online and become available to customers on the apps market place. page chef meals swat is co owner of a restaurant in cape town. he is one of over $400.00 ships and $8000.00 private customers registered as buyers on up a lobby. last night, the shift placed an order on the us this morning hung good life, delivers it 5 kilos of k. bring the proof is in the pudding or the fish fish for that man. i like the, the quality of the fish we got is just that something we haven't worked with before with the apps q r code, the restaurant. and his guests can trace exactly where a fish comes from. the fishes name, the species, and where it was coped. jeffery, i love knowing where the money is going. so i love knowing that the money is going to the fisherman. a knock, some massive companies just amusing the sea and the customers also enjoy hearing that the money that explained here by us goes directly to the fisherman. and we can see exactly how much they get. since his debut abalone has put more than 500000 heroes directly into the pockets of struggling fishes, similar projects are already up and running in other countries. all aimed at preserving fish stocks and ensuring local fishes, a living wage. amin, ourselves against climate change and its consequences as well as gain in new knowledge to educate local populations and apply new ideas and methods. i hope visitation of the show convinced you how important, caring for environment is for now. good bye for me, chris. a lance in lagos, nigeria, we hope you enjoyed a good mix of topics coming through from africa and europe. and of course, we look forward to having your company once again next week. i am sandra t. nobody sango from compiler, here in uganda. ah with ah, with ah, with who i agree. do you feel worried about the planning? me too. i'm neil. host of the on
