Happy to be with you again presenting once again our coproduction from Quest Set Dates from ala and channels t. V. My name is felice endlessly and ill be a cause for the show heres whats coming up in the program. Well show you how some of the others in madagascar capital water. Well check out as the invention that concludes the worlds oceans. Well tell you how i jury and launches the successful Business Books are made from Natural Ingredients. Stuck on the island of madagascar. Frequent droughts and an Exploding City Population have made claim Drinking Water a scarce resource in the capital on our evil many of the cities rely on contaminated water collected from swamps and selfwilled wells with simple but effective means the older has ation water and sanitation for the urban poor proves that not much money is needed to provide clean water and the method also has great benefits to the environment. Accrue from Jerome America ask his National Water utility is repairing a broken pipe in a tent in a river about forty percent of the citys Drinking Water is lost due to needs like these repair teams are advised and trained on how to detect and fix such leaks by the end water and sanitation for the poor. Nevers our Record Towson is a program officer. Saving resources doesnt need to be big as creating a new treatment for anything but all money made seem better managing the resource that google have now so better management says already helping john michael improve the service that they give to the. W s u p is working to improve antananarivo is Water Management the metropolitan areas population has doubled to some Three Million over the past twenty years. Two thirds of the people have no access to clean Drinking Water according to w. S. U. About one quarter of deaths among children under the age of five here a link to water borne diseases. Members are and her team at w. S. U. P. Help provide basic infrastructure to prevent waste water from polluting the environment and improve access to clean water in partnership with the city the
n. G. O. Has already built five hundred will take us that sell Drinking Water. Theyve also built larger blocks across the city. Remember hanta comes here to watch a laundry she also does laundry for a few customers which provides her a source of income.

Many locals still rely on contaminated Surface Water to meet their daily needs the river which passes through antananarivo is a citys largest source of water local people fish and do their washin here but the
water is contaminated by both sewage and the waste that litters the river bank members are about to towson says providing better infrastructure isnt enough Political Action is also necessary to create a lost in change. The work that we are doing is contributing to to show to the governments how the how will be impact of this type of a petition to the people of the lie and how the government could improve this peoples life through our work to our priority our action we will show we will influence the government that there is some action that could be taken to avoid peoples lives destruction. The municipal Water Utility agrees but lacks the resources to take action only a small part of a ten an hour ago is connected to the sewage system. And none of its waste water is
properly treated. The director of the municipal waste water facility worries that environmental pollution will soon make it impossible to provide local residents with save Drinking Water. Just to meet the needs. Of all. With w s u p s assistance the city has drafted a proposal to expand its waste Water Treatment facilities these improvements in Water Management agency needed as many bizarre knows only too well otherwise the copay revo will not be a source of life but a threat to the local environment and people. Are our friends our precious there are hundreds of beautiful coral amazing whales and rays and the fishery. But as you know that up to eight or nine million tons of plastic are dumped in the
worlds oceans every year by twenty fifty that might be more plastic than fish in them thats insane so its got together and invented a tool called the been which can help clean up the ocean another video in our series doing your bit. Every year we dumped more than eight Million Tonnes of plastic trash into the worlds oceans. Small harbors like this one are good places to test a new clean up to buy ice. On the Spanish Island of Majorca Andrew Turkey and Peterson Glinsky are trying out there floating rubbish collector the c. B. D. And. Heres how it works and external pump creates a vacuum that sucks in water along with the floating trash. The filter bag inside
the big. Even remove the oil and detergents from the water. The designers say it Doesnt Harm Fish because only objects at the surface are pulled into the bin. At present the pump is still being powered by gasoline. But in the future andrew and peter plan to use Renewable Energy sources like wind and solar to run their ocean clean up device. Like that. You are also doing your bit tell us about it. Is it on the website or send us a tweet. As to drink or bad. Your stories. Now we switch over to south africa where a very small crater is endangered were talking about a tiny is
a frog its only habitat is on a small stretch of wetlands what is so interesting about the pick a gills read frog and see Well Conservationist hoping to fight a round because they say thanks to this probably can measure changes in v. N. Bob and the biologist have teamed up with johnnys begs you to try to save the species through research and breeding program. This little fellow is less than three centimeters long hes a Pickle Skills read from an Endangered Species since last year the Johannesburg Zoo has been breeding the rare amphibians to increase their numbers. Now some of them are being moved to their nation habitat six hundred kilometers away in the coastal wetlands. Boy. And you plessy says one of a team of researchers involved in the Amphibian Conservation project. Tonight
theyre setting about two hundred frog three. Hundred really learn here in europe even in cuba where its very rare bali going to further near drowning were going after spread the biggest deals out there is the lower older level to ensure that it is going to spread throughout that area. The project is a collaboration between the zoo another State Organization and a private in geo in south africa the only place in the world this species of frog lives is here in these wetlands near the durban airport. That habitat is very small around twelve square kilometers the scientists realised that noise and contaminated waste water from the Agricultural Industry weigh on the wetlands. The future of the tiny frogs is also threatened by Urban Development in the nearby city according to the researchers. The idea to launch the project came from scientist adrian
armstrong he and gene terrence from the n. G. s who have been involved in the Fraud Project since twenty seventeen. We knew of some sites with the frog occurred and so we asked the janice biggs to come and collect some and take them back to the city and greet them in captivity we dont actually know a lot of our history so whats really great about this project in particular with breeding this. Frog is learning a lot more about its Biology Learning about its breeding behavior and learning about the things that it does in captivity which we would like to think also happens in the wild. The same is true for other amphibians about Seven Thousand worldwide the scientists know very little about them and a growing number are endangered the Conservation Project aims to shed more light on the habitats of amphibians particularly from. This so important that we maintain a relational d. B. s because also assisting us in numerous ways. As well as other sources of the war. Is also helping with other controls like other insects weve. Also feel its believed that half the worlds vertebrates have disappeared over the past fifty years thats why the researches in south africa are doing all they can to prevent that from happening to these tiny for all and its habitats. I just learned something new on eco africa even the smallest of creatures have their place in the ecosystem but there is no room in nature for certain Chemical Products for example many cosmetic products contain chemicals that can damage the skin and of course the environment in the pursuit of living more simply naturally unconsciously cosmetics made from Natural Ingredients are getting more popular one man in nigerias Capital Lagos is producing some from organic
products its gotten so popular here that hes now shipping it worldwide. The camp would tree is native to west africa for centuries people here have used it for all kinds of purposes from woodworking to making diet and health and beauty products. When ground into powder the coal beneath the bark is good for treating various skin problems. Day needs to wood to make is due to assume black so it is pounded it is ground and its made into a paste to exfoliate the skins of babies it is also used as a Beauty Regimen to make the skin supple. Because a we milled this. Introduces into the soap in a very smooth water from. Three d. And his team are constantly working on improving the formula which also includes Honey Share Butter and alex theyre all Natural Ingredients harvested locally. Building a Manufacturing Business for ghana quality nigeria has been challenging business for structure. Theres no Government Assistance the Detention System is dysfunctional. The Government House is literally the existing when it comes to manufacture or business so if youre looking to the government to help you. With your time figuring they set up this company in One Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety Five i did not produces more than One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars Per Day from production to packaging everything is done in the large factory and during the places great value on national in regions and tradition we know that people have
skin problems around the world people of different races different color but the skin is the same and the healing characteristics of this will benefit mankind. Of his soul throughout nigeria and it sells well. Even though it is somewhat more expensive than regular soaps. I think is that close to nature which i had met a lot so we tend to spend more needs a market without t. V. Using something that has cost but you get in the venue so you will have in mind the cost of the products salads right now of us is going to have much of this i dont think im thinking of changing or did you assume is already marketed in several countries but greedy wants to really establish the Brand Internationally is also diversifying the portfolio with organic share better and by the illusions he hopes
his success will inspire others to become entrepreneurs who want to provide something that the up and coming young want to send ok i want to be like that person i want to beat his record if he can. You know. And successful in the work market we can. Do that as the month keep doing the company is planning to buy more land where he can cultivate and sustainable fashion the trees and plants he needs for his old natural presence. Have you ever stopped to wonder why so many people drive alone especially in europe you do could just get more people to travel together traffic jams on pollution would be reduce them more than a billion cause worldwide a figure that could double by twenty forty while thats shocking in
germany for instance there are already some areas in big cities like hamburg and frankfurt where its forbidden to drive with a diesel car but a life of small and congested roads could be avoided and i dont mean well all be flying around inside file style hover cars many of the vehicles of the future are a lot more modest see for yourself. This is only palins first Self Driving Bus hes not allowed out on the road yet senses on the front of the vehicle allow it to recognize obstacles ali has spent three months practicing on the testing Ground Transport research a Vet Councilor believes Self Driving Vehicles are the future even if ali isnt quite perfect yet. Only needs to practice its got a ways to go the technology is relatively new and highly complex. But in a few years time the Self Driving Buses are expected to be in regular operation
but thats not all this is what tomorrow cities could look like Autonomous Vehicles of various descriptions bring us to wherever we need to go and well be able to choose between several forms of transport. For the key is in term of dallas where various forms of transport are linked but no private cars there inefficient and i think in the medium to long term personal cars will disappear from our inner city. Transfers. Our roads are already full enough. The result is Noise Congestion and poor air quality thats inspired a number of visionary entrepreneurs to come up with alternatives one Startup Company called Clever Shuttle operates a Taxi Sharing Service with a fleet of electric vehicles. A Smart Phone App allows you to order a car you are then picture taken to your destination other passengers may be picked
up along the way its a lot like a classic taxi service but more efficient a much cheaper. This month the idea is to bundle short trips in the city of two customers book similar routes by that make sense to transport them together with that. Reduces traffic on the roads and each passenger saves a lot of money. In future be shared taxis could become part of the local Public Transport Network they might travel on rails but with no fixed stops youd simply order them by phone and they would ordinary route automatically. That could see the number of private cars in the city drop significantly giving way to more Car Sharing Experts believe the number of Car Sharing Vehicles is set to multiply five times over the next two decades. So does that mean well have to forfeit our zero cost one Burn Initiative has developed an app called getaway which ends to at least make better use of the cars that exist. The idea is whenever you dont need your car your neighbor could use it. But initiative is also introduced a second idea instead of keeping car you could hire a cargo bike when you need one equipped of course with an electric motor. Back to africa until just a few years ago forests were being mercilessly cut down what was and is an indispensable fuel source and Building Material for the rural population but things are getting desperate around there is one of africas most densely populated countries more and more people are living from fewer resources the government has decided to take action. Its poncing large areas of forests as part of an africa
wide initiative that have an ambitious goal to create two million hectares of new forest and i were cultural lead by twenty thirty our ports along you know how close they are to achieving it. These two men have another busy day ahead of them theyre planting a small forest. As a farmer in Eastern Rwanda and uses a lot of wood. For the past few years agro Forestry Experts like a lot and dolly have been Teaching Farmers and other people here about the importance of protecting the forest and how to plant trees. Has been prepared to plant the seed like ive already put a bit of fertilizer in it once the seedlings in place ill pack some good fertile soil around just enough so that the rainwater wont accumulate on myspace dot. You
know is known as the land of a Thousand Hills in the center of the Capital Kigali is situated on one of them. But many of the others are covered in forests or whats left of them deforestation has been a major problem in rwanda. The countrys population has been growing rapidly for decades its quadrupled since one nine hundred sixty. Is an invaluable resource for heating cooking and construction through countless trees a failed across the country to meet the demand. A few years ago the government realised that major changes were needed and introduced the ambitious goal of restoring two million hectares of forest land by twenty thirty. Thats why some fast growing nonnative species of tree are playing a key role such as the eucalyptus from australia. Theyre being bred and planted here in large numbers. We have. For adoption we
get. Very few years like short cycle for four to five years for first harvests and they have this Second Generation without planting if its reforestation at breakneck speed thanks to the eucalyptus two years ago this hill was bare now its a thriving young forest. Other species are also being planted about fifteen percent native or naturalized ones such as the silky oak and the sea olive tree. It may seem overly ambitious to aim to reforest the entire country but rwanda is determined to try. Its a member of after one hundred and initiative of twenty seven african countries to reforest One Hundred Million hectares of land thats about the size of egypt. Rwandas lands and Forest Ministry takes pride in its accomplishments so far. We is proud of the countries to commit to played. In commitment this country. To be the leading country in terms of recession and our friend it. What do all the new trees mean for ordinary people in Rwanda Judyth is a farmer she never had enough firewood now she has plenty because shes been growing her own trees she makes a good Living Selling Wood thanks to reforestation as a Business Model she could afford a new home. She used to send her children out to forage for wood all day now they have time to attend school as well. As in theres a. Im really happy because my life has improved so much that im evil and move
a ms in my kids can go to school and are doing well and we. Managed to save some money for my household through selling what i do you will know and now i can afford a water tap in my own home and when im going to move on i bonds. As the forests disappear new ones are being created given that selfimposed deadline its a race against time for a while and its going all out to win.
