And the odd space and ideas about thats all about to live theres some good news the doubles as an experiment on environmental sustainability innocent people

Im Christine Wonderwall come to date every news africa im glad youre itching to and we begin in mozambique in the Port City Of Beirut away all fours hes hope to raise the money needed to rebuild infrastructure destroyed off to 2 storms a 2 day Donor Conference launched in beirut today with experts from International Organizations the private sector and Civil Society in attendance there hoping to raise about 3000000000. 00. It die and can it smashed into walls and beacon march and april hitting the center and the north of the country just 6 weeks of hot more than 2000000 people were affected and about 650 died now the funds will be in mosques so rebuild infrastructure and support social needs and economic protection
in a fixity areas. Weeks after the cycle on and really you know this house is still barely habitable for the family have moved all their possessions into the only undamaged room thats also where they now sleep. You know well never forget the day the storm hit. I was just there i didnt go anywhere because that was so wally they couldnt come out so they leave. Going out that was a very very player name and he did c. S. Lewis houses just a few 100 meters from the shore the sea is the most immediate danger. Hes coming laws laws every year why do you think its going to be i dont know who theres an inch of peace i dont know if these are big. Beira is often flooded parts of the
city are below sea level the districts of poynton j. I. And i specially at risk un Climate Change experts estimate that sea levels could rise by a meter by the year 2100. These are stairs of a house that used to be right here in point and jay you can clearly see how the sea came closer and closer over the years and took more and more lens many more houses under threat. The city has taken defensive action with a network of locks and candles and parts of the measures have Cost Millions subsidised by Development Funds from germany. Pollution we were due to win the day of the cycle and the daughter started raining we open the logs so the water could run down into the sea if we havent done that the flooding would have been even worse you know. May. Go assess the city is used to flooding but destructive storms like cycle only die a new phenomena she mango is hoping for more funding from overseas to pay for defensive measures he cant understand why some still doubt the existence of Climate Change. To have to leave our life. Maybe theyre living another kind of life. But the feeling in the scheme what we have done here weve decided to do understand that Climate Change is a problem once they have green flooding. In here thats what we have seen. Definitely do feel in the scheme that something bad is happening and thats called Climate Change. In the meantime and worries about the future about his house and his family. If it were. Brits living here. Because my father was here you. Know we live here and we do. Believe that the war any other place so were here. For a so were free. If you could afford it. You would have moved a long time ago away from the waters edge ok Lets Go Over To Beirut now we have. Heading up operations for the red cross is dying response welcome to d w africa flow on most of the money thats raised at the stern of conferences going towards rebuilding infrastructure but perhaps tell us how desperate the humanitarian situation is as we speak. Thank you thank you for that question because its true that there are you know looked off impact on the infrastructure here wrote breach is also because ive been damaged but we should not forget the human side of it and
today see some people after 2 months see didnt receive some 1st and so thats one of the thing that we are looking at at the moment that the red cross is too stupid to try to to give them some tools that will help them to reveal their lives in the future but dont switch respond to there are still very dire needs to be sure to related to emergency food. Emergency shelter for example that some of the communities we have been visiting recently see the entry see if anything right right well done many people have saved that the response to this disaster has been largely and defended has that been your experience and just how have you had how have you had to get by. If we would have been able to have more funds its true that we would have been able to rent small Trucks Rental id copters and those who bring in more goods to be able to be distributed to all these people but what hes doing most worrying related to that too theyre not girlfriend she is what is going
to come in the coming weeks and in the coming months in general and see what factors don years i would say field actors as well that dont very present in the very onset of the restaurants but much less in the coming weeks and coming months why we know that the effect of direct response would really last for long so we need to be able to protect ourself for quite some time rights was why were really worried. Ok so so to the point i mean youre throwing forward to the future and i just wonder whats youll say its off how much along they youll say this is all going to be needed they are you in this for the long lloyd give us a time horizon. At the red cross we dont see how such response can be shortened and then 2 years i would explain you just briefly why but we feel look at the amount of tears of crops that have been destroyed its more than 700000 in effect years old the scraps into lost just before the august so decent that the main office is going to come online in one year so there is no way we can do something
that is Free Standing and that we take over after one year so we need to be able to breach that gap for a minimum of one year and then encourage people to be more resilient field back safe for being back right or to be more resilient and a risk of floods alright thats fall on from the International Federation of red cross thank you very much thank you.
