Protection still takes a back seat to Economic Growth is when the Coronavirus Crisis began. Early this year, much of the world went into lockdown. Factory production is stalled, ships, remains docked, craft with rounded, imports and exports shrank. Finally, nature could take a breather. According to one study in the 1st half of this year, Carbon Dioxide emissions sank almost 9 percent. Thats around 1500000000. 00 times. The pandemic has offered us a chance to rethink Global Economics to put climate protection above profit. So father, theres been little sign of any real change of fridays for future demonstration in shanghai at the end of september, just for young people have dared to turn up the 17 year old, organize the protest. She wants to see political action. China is the worlds biggest c o 2 producer all the gold mines during the biggest crime in Human History on we believe that the medias crime actively sought to destroy only way to deal with the current crisis. Always only been here for a few minutes before the police show up and tell her to move, but shes not one to give up that easily. And now looks for another place to hold a demonstration that evening. Right now the governments primary focus appears to be on Economic Growth. Climate protection has slipped far down. The agenda. Steel and cement production are especially harmful to the environment. But since the corona virus outbreak, the Construction Industry has been a major driver of the economy. The idea that you can have too much investment to many railroads for both stadiums, industrial parks, routes and bridges. It sounds a bit absurd because most, most countries struggle to invest enough in this kind of transfer structure. But china, for the last 10 years, has these kind of investment as a way to deliver very high being g. D. P. Growth numbers. This Production Facility is a testament to the economic stimulus package announced in may at the worlds 3rd largest Construction Machinery maker staff work almost around the clock. A new vehicle rolls off the Assembly Line here every 25 minutes. Its hoped the boom in construction will create jobs. New projects have been given fast track approval and in some 21000 projects and Environmental Impact assessment wasnt carried out. Coronavirus induced markdowns and falling exports have left many people relieved to have any kind of job. So its all good, we can build roads and were able to work and be how, you know, how could maybe are not happening. We have work and can earn money. China has also been building new coal fired power plants. Many such projects are build as part of an effort to combat poverty. The country currently has at least 25. 00 coal powered facilities in the pipeline. This, despite the fact that existing plants are working at only 50 percent capacity, which has nothing to do with electricity demand, he says every week, just that pushing forward with any kind of book or structural project that creates g. D. P. And creates jobs in the short term fired power plants are just part of the bigger stimulus package. As being rolled out for us reporting is not made easy for the Police Follow our every move in the end. They forbid us from filming. As a result, we cant find out how the locals feel about the expansion of the power plant. Its a sensitive topic. China doesnt want to be associated with fossil fuels, but on the contrary, its eager to be seen as a leader in renewables. We will call on all countries to put in an address to the u. N. General Assembly Chinese president xi jinping, pledged to make the country climate neutral by 2016. A goal that Environmental Protection groups like greenpeace believe is attainable, despite the current construction boom. China is also the worlds biggest, vaster and solar energy. But gongs for 2060 are enough for a 17 year old, aware of her evening demonstration ends with her being brought into the police station. Where she was forced to write a statement condemning her actions in china criticising the government is to boo we she, mens are not alone in reacting to Climate Change. Animals up to temperature changes have always had a huge impact on wildlife. Seasonal changes, millions of animals around the globe in constant movement. Huge every year around the world. Huge numbers of animals migrate to other parts of the us. Scientists estimate between 8. 10 species a migrate every in water, on land or in the skies. They make the birds, mammals, or fish, but also insects, amphibians, reptiles, and even minute creatures such as plankton in the sea. Some species like ilsa and salmon only migrate twice in my lifetime, once after birth and again for mating. Eels from europe makes up east of florida and the sawgrass o. C. To support some of them take up to 3 years to get other species take off each year for distant lands like migrate to rebirths. For example, when it gets too cold for them in Central Europe and food is in short, supply stores had to warmer regions in the south the drive to embark on a High Risk Energy draining, journey very straight from one species to another. Monaco to flies achieve an amazing feat with some of them traveling up to 3600 kilometers, they navigate using the position of the sun and the earths magnetic field. But just the arctic tundra holds the record. It travels between the north and south pole covering around 80000 kilometers a year. Most species prefer not to travel a liar. Before setting off, they got to bring huge flock, so hurts the can be up to 1000000. 00 strong. Traveling as a group has its advantages. It provides protection from attack on from hungry predators. Migratory birds like wild geese, save energy by flying in formation. Ecosystems become ops, with out on a migration summon swim from the sea into fresh will to streams and rivets for the purpose of mating. Of the spawning that bodies decompose, providing a rich source of nitrogen fertilizer for trees and plants. Alaskas forest couldnt survive without the salmon. They provide 80 percent of the nitrogen, but Climate Change is affecting migrates re behavior. The changes brought when this one team says the atlantic cold is being pushed further north as the ocean water heats up. On the other hands, not of the old. Theyve been able to expound their habitats hundreds of kilometers further to the north. Just like the beat which is native to southern and southeastern europe, it can now be found further north of the new comers of causing problems. The asian tiger musky type has brought down de fever to europe, a disease that can be life threatening to humans. As more fish in bats need, north and south towards the tropics are losing some species. This drop in biodiversity caused by Climate Change is also having an economic impact. By the middle of the century, Southeast Asia will have off your fish them before and migrate. Also change into many storms, so no longer flying to africa for the winter, stopping in spain instead of those that were considered migrate in previous decades, such as installing a nurse, then you found through your ground natural wildlife. Migration is one thing. But what about when animals migrate unnaturally on aircraft or boats . For example, as goods make their way around the planet in our global eyes dwelt. Europe has around 12000 nonnative species of plants and animals. Some of these have proliferated, take the recount, formally found only in north america. Ricans are now common in europe and japan. Some Invasive Species pose a threat to native wildlife and a tough to get on the controlled fishermen out before dawn, plying their trade in the gulf of god best. The bay until easter is east coast is around a 100 kilometers long. In recent times, the fishermen have had to stray ever further from the coast to catch fish. When youre about gardening, ive been a fisherman for 38 years. A lot has changed in that time. 20 years ago we used to catch loads of province. But in recent years, there have been repeated events that have reduced our catch. The latest problem was the blue crab. They wiped out everything. The 1st blue crabs was spotted here at the end of 24. 00 t. Its a species that was previously unknown in tunisia. Their numbers increased rapidly, and within 8 months the crabs had become a real menace. They would cut the fishing nets, eat the fish, and develop anything else they could find. They became such a problem that the fisherman nicknamed them, di. Yes, after than a tourist militant group, islamic state, the blue crab is native to the indopacific region. They came here by the red sea and the suez canal. Like most of the roughly 1000 nonnative species that have reached the mediterranean because of Climate Change, the waters here are now also woman up to support tropical species. Mohammed national team, brad di, has decades studying the migrate, repass hands in the mediterranean. I mean, this was invisible theorists because were especially interested in learning about Invasive Species because they threaten the biodiversity of all our sea vineyards. And its a phenomenon that were seeing increasingly in the mediterranean. Yet the scientists estimate that a new nonnative species appears roughly every 9 days for that significant decrease. And one for at in asia is National Institute of Marine Sciences and technology also then of della and her team are studying the blue crabs. The scientists are keen to learn more about this destructive species. How fast did the crabs grow . How quickly do they reproduce . And how do they impact other species when they arrive in a new area . To help answer these questions, theyre analyzing the contents of the crab stomachs. Early on that i believe blue crab is an extremely verey, should species. And even the crabs are basically insatiable. Theyll feed on all kinds of prey. France for example, but theyll also its a full of padds like squid on the fish, and they prey on the fish that live in the gulf of bessemer, important for the fishing industry. But the blue crab could also pose a threat to another much larger marine animal. The sea turtle the mediterranean is home to 3 species of turtle, all of which are endangered. They gather in the gulf of god, best to feed and to spend the winter. To the north korea island is an important nesting ground for the loggerhead turtle, which lays its eggs at just a few sites on the island. Throughout the entire mediterranean, the number of nesting places has dropped rapidly with the animals being disturbed by bright lights and tourists. When they 1st had the babies way, just 20 grams without a hard outer shell back completely defenseless. Only one in a 1000 survives many get eaten by fish and crabs. And now of course, theres a new predator in town. The blue crab just a few kilometers away on the mainland. How tim is currently being cared for by the adult female is more than 30 years old. She is malnourished and has a large fishing hook inside her. A fight suffered by many sea turtles. The scientists here say injuries from both propellers are also common. They found these pieces of plastic and heard him species. The pollution of the seas is another huge threat to the turtles. Around 2 thirds of the animals examined here have plastic inside their bodies. The scientists record and keep everything they find it. A true mindedness from sea turtles are very important for the marine ecosystem that go to maintain the balance in the food chain evolution any more than loggerhead turtle, for example, its everything and it will eat crabs and mollusks fish jellyfish used to make sure no individual species can take over if things start to tip out of balance the sea turtle helps to get things back into equilibrium. And you can imagine one of the biggest threats to the sea turtles is the fishing industry. Landed in a fishing net as by catch. Once a juvenile turtle has recovered and is able to dive for food again by herself, shell be released back into the sea. But 1st, the scientists want to take blood and tissue samples to analyze had d. N. A. The data is needed for an International Research project studying the effects of plastic pollution on sea turtles. Meanwhile, efforts are underway to curb the numbers of blue, crab attorneys, and Company Called golden fish is now making money from the invasive shellfish. Other companies along the gulf of governors are doing the same in other parts of the world, the blue crab is a delicacy. So they are now being court taken a pass and frozen, ready for export. Last year alone, the company sent out 60 tons of crab and crab meat. Most of the customers are in asia, but the blue crabs are also popular in spain and italy. In the capital tunis, we visit in the, in the bar trade. This one focuses on developing a question by a products. The researchers here study marine organisms to identify natural substances that could be used in cosmetics and other applications. They found that the meat of the blue crab is rich in various proteins by turning the crab meat into a powder. Theyve developed a protein rich food supplement. So now the blue crab has an appeal for the domestic market to the blue crab, all but destroyed the livelihoods of many fisherman. But now its become a source of income, allowing the fishing industry to survive. And by catching and using the crabs, this Invasive Species is being kept under control of tunisias coast. In this weeks global ideas, we go to south africa to learn how axe breaks and promotes nature conservation. Something thats easier than it sounds. South africa is famous for its wild life for a vast areas of almost untouched land. Now an ngo there is working to turn much of that into nature reserves. We met up with 2 of its teams in the can do in the east of the country and chemist grown in the west. No plantations, no crops, no combine. Harvesters. 88 percent of land in south africa is not suitable for agriculture. Its too rugged, too dry and too one even but everywhere you look, you see life in abundance. The country boasts rich biodiversity. But how best to preserve it. In south africa, Environmental Protection is chronically under financed. Thats where Candace Stevens comes in. Shes a Tax Specialist that the n. G. O. Wilderness foundation, africa. She wants to encourage landowners to turn their holdings into nature reserves. The government offers a tax incentive to do so. What youre doing here is looking after south africas natural wealth in the public. Good. Yes. And so theres this unique tax incentive to benefit that biodiversity, so even as you plough money, time, if an energy into looking after the sun, farmers may think youre not getting anything out. There is a special tax incentive just to give a little bit back. This man is already converted his land into a protected area. He can write off the cost of the purchase over 25 year period. That extra cash and pocket would be able to, to give a little bit more Financial Sustainability to you in managing this in corporate units. And so that you could put a little bit more interest, which would be your decision and, and you know, what needs to happen on the side of photographer, cost fund of and purchase the land 5 years ago and has taken countless pictures of the area since then. It rarely rains here, but when it does, the landscape is transformed into a pageant of color. Another special feature about this area of land is that it could act as a corridor for wild animals since its located between 2 different protected areas. We stand on the northern border of it to the west and east for self stretching down National Park and then to the north east. Look up and you can see the proposed corridor linking the 2 critics of the crew region of south africa is home to more than 5000. 00 species of plants and some 40 percent of them can only be found here the good of the school because the rain season is gone. Oh yeah, this will be the final flower. We had some rain a couple of days ago. So its just a little bit early, but surely once upon a time this area was farmland, this was going back for a long time since the 17th hundreds with the pioneers that, that formed here with a high rainfall that time, but due to global warming. And the rainfall diminished quite a bit and it just became impossible for these people to, to make a living with cattle and agriculture and eventually their to sell. And thats why we in the fall for conservation with Climate Change threatening biodiversity, Candice Stevens has not found it difficult to persuade other landowners to follow suit, having grown up on a farm herself. Shes adept at communicating the advantages of the tax scheme. Tax is not everybodys favorite subject and when tax season rolls around, its not like everybody. So my experience with is that they understand that there are implications to tax financial. And so they want to fully understand what the taxes for their dozens of landowners have signed up to the scheme. Her 1st experience of implementing the program was in the kwazulunatal province in order to protect the land. And locals introduced a herd of cattle grain. The animals serve an important function, keeping the grass short helps prevent wildfires in the dry season. But its just the start. We want you for a time when the whole nature reserve will be fenced and will slowly introduce starting with the plains game, which will be a spring book. He learned from those type of animals. And then once they are established slowly, the cap will be removed. The animals will be free to run on the whole nature reserve the tax rebates that Candace Stevens has been promoting, have gone some way towards addressing the shortage of funding for Environmental Protection in south africa and in the future. Shes hopeful of further progress in this development. Conservation work can become the mainstream and become something thats part of everyday life and not something thats a protein. And with additional finance thats sustainable. It means that were protecting biodiversity on a scale that we havent done before. And if we can also that global challenge, with all the resources that we have at our disposal, we might just have a chance of saving the world around us.
