Podcasts about Madagascar

In this episode of the Riff Session, we engage in a light-hearted conversation that spans various topics, including our upcoming trip to Madagascar, cultural exchanges during mission trips, and humorous discussions about classic monsters like vampires and werewolves. We also touch on survival strategies in a zombie apocalypse and share our experiences with extreme weather and ice fishing. In this engaging conversation, we explore various themes ranging from seasonal activities and childhood memories to the humorous aspects of pain and the science of humor measurement. We share personal anecdotes about winter activities, school seasons, and encounters with fire ants, leading to a discussion on the Schmidt Pain Index and the nature of humor in everyday life. The conversation culminates in a humorous critique of advertising, particularly focusing on Palmolive commercials and the absurdity of using dishwashing liquid for hand care.

Today we are sitting down with writer and modern day explorer Riaan Manser. His adventurous journey began the day he decided to quit his job and go for a bike ride... around the entire continent of Africa. This was done without backup, and before personal gps and smartphones were in public circulation. Riaan has since become the holder of numerous world records: first to ride 42000km around Africa, first to lap the islands of Madagascar and Iceland in his kayak, and first to row from Morocco to New York in a 18ft row boat. All this to say having survived through landmines, multiple kidnappings, wild ocean storms, starvation and extreme dehydration — Riaan has a story or two to share with us today.Once again a huge thankyou to Riaan for sharing his time with us!Check out his books and adventures at Riaanmanser.comAnd give him a follow on Instagram and Facebook!-----------------Subscribe to this podcast so you're always up to date.

We hoeven niet te wachten met stemmen tot in oktober de volgende verkiezingen zijn. Nee, we stemmen elke dag.  Volgens het nieuwe boek ‘Stemmen met je portemonnee' is 'Elk bankbiljet is een stembiljet'.  Het boek gaat over de invloed van jou als consument op de wereld, geschreven door 21 idealisten.  We bespreken het met twee schrijvers: filosoof Remko van Broekhoven, hier in de studio, en vanuit Madagascar consumentenpsycholoog, Patrick Wessels, goedemiddag beide! 

Today, we highlight Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Glorious Lord in the Church around the world. Thank you all for listening. We are looking at the earthly conversations Jesus had, as recorded in the gospels, to see if we are able to glean anything useful for our prayer lives. Our latest segment comes from John chapter 2 and the wedding party at Cana. We find not only is He the God of the impossible, but He can accomplish multiple things through one prayer.The prayer of Mary, "They have no wine." Began a miracle, at least 180 gallons of good wine. Although the miracle was a "quiet one," it accomplished all Mary had prayed, but it set the beginning of the evangelist team God would use to turn the world upside down. "This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him." John 2:11Our So What?When we cast our prayers to the heart of our God, we scarce know how those prayers may be used in the plan of the Almighty. Therefore, we heed then the exhortations of E.M. Bounds and the apostle Paul:"Nothing is well done without prayer for the simple reason that it leaves God out of the account." " Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31Brethren, let's pray for one another. "What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

Dans l'océan Indien, des scientifiques essaient de connaître le risque microbiologique pour l'homme et pour l'environnement marin de toutes ces bactéries pathogènes qui arrivent à se coller sur les plastiques flottants en mer et à survivre. Une recherche menée par une équipe franco-malgache, dans le cadre du projet ExPLOI, développé par la Commission de l'océan Indien, l'une des rares recherches de ce type en cours dans le monde. De notre envoyée spéciale à La Digue, Dans le lagon de l'île de La Digue, aux Seychelles, dans l'océan Indien, une partie de l'équipe scientifique collecte les macroplastiques à l'aide d'épuisettes, d'autres prélèvent des échantillons, à terre, dans le sable. Thierry Bouvier, écologiste microbien marin et chercheur au CNRS et à l'Institut de recherche pour le développement, au laboratoire MARBEC, assiste Rakotovao Raherimino, doctorant à l'Institut halieutique et des sciences marines de Tuléar. Le premier gratte un morceau de plastique avec un écouvillon, tandis que le second découpe avec précaution un morceau de la bouteille plastique jaunie par le soleil. « Cela se voit que ce plastique a séjourné dans l'eau, montre Thierry Bouvier. Il est colonisé par un certain nombre de choses. On voit des biofilms, on voit des petites tâches qui sont dues au développement pendant son séjour en mer. Après ce séjour à dériver en mer, il s'est échoué et là, on l'échantillonne désormais. On va conserver cet échantillon pour des analyses génétiques et estimer la diversité de ces bactéries qui sont associées au plastique. » De retour au laboratoire embarqué à bord du navire Plastic Odyssey, les deux chercheurs extraient aux ultrasons les bactéries réfugiées sur les plastiques collectés à la plage et en mer, puis les mettent en culture. Objectif : Savoir quelles sont celles qui peuvent affecter les humains et qui ont survécu au soleil et à la salinité. Et les premiers résultats obtenus par Rakotovao Raherimino sont pour le moins préoccupants. « J'ai découvert qu'il y a environ 300 fois plus de bactéries potentiellement pathogènes, c'est-à-dire qui peuvent entraîner des infections pour l'homme, sur les macroplastiques que dans l'eau de mer. On a trouvé des bactéries d'origine fécale, qui sont majoritairement des bactéries pathogènes comme l'Escherichia coli qui provoque des infections intestinales ou la Klebsiella pneumoniae qui provoque des infections pulmonaires. L'objet de ma thèse, c'est de savoir la durée de vie de ces bactéries lorsqu'elles sont hébergées dans les plastiques lors de leur “séjour” en mer », explique-t-il. Le tapis microbien, cette espèce de « film gluant » qui se développe à la surface des plastiques en mer, offre-t-il un écosystème refuge pour les bactéries d'origine humaine, contrairement à l'eau de mer qui ne permet pas à ces bactéries de survivre très longtemps ? Les premiers résultats montrent que ces bactéries sont véritablement plus nombreuses sur les plastiques que dans l'eau de mer environnante et surtout encore vivantes. Certaines d'entre elles ont même été observées dans l'intestin des animaux qui consomment ces plastiques. Les études en cours devraient permettre de dresser différentes conclusions sur les risques pour la santé humaine. À lire aussiAnalyse: à quoi doit servir la Conférence de l'ONU sur l'océan à Nice ?

Il y a des océans dont la pollution est mieux documentée qu'ailleurs. Le Pacifique et son fameux continent de plastique ont bénéficié, ces dernières années, de beaucoup d'études. L'océan Indien, particulièrement le sud-ouest de l'océan Indien, a été jusqu'à présent assez peu observé. Cette année, plusieurs recherches ont été lancées dans la zone grâce au programme ExPLOI. L'une de ces études consiste à produire un inventaire inédit sur la quantité et le type de plastiques que l'on retrouve dans les eaux côtières. De notre envoyée spéciale de retour de Mahé, Nous sommes dans le lagon de Baie Lazare, sur l'île de Mahé, à bord du Zodiac, aux côtés des matelots, Chettun Bhonul, doctorant à l'Université de Maurice. Ce matin, comme tant d'autres, il procède à ce que l'on appelle la collecte de microplastiques : « Prêt pour les mettre à l'eau ? ».  Le capitaine du Zodiac répond : « Filet manta à l'eau ! » Ce que le chercheur vient de lancer, ce sont en fait des petits filets harnachés à des flotteurs qui vont capter toutes les particules en suspension, à la surface de l'eau. Durant deux heures, le bateau va tracter ces filets en lignes droites pour collecter un maximum d'échantillons. Une expérience répliquée dans 15 lagons de l'Océan Indien, à Madagascar, à Maurice et bientôt aux Comores. « L'objectif, c'est déjà pour avoir un aperçu sur le nombre de microplastiques qu'on a sur les lagons, mais aussi en dehors du lagon, pour les quantifier. Du coup, quand je prends les microplastiques, je vais les classifier en taille, en type et aussi en couleur pour savoir quel est le plus commun des microplastiques ? Mon étude est inédite parce qu'on a très peu de données sur la pollution plastique dans le sud-ouest de l'Océan Indien, surtout sur les micro plastiques. Dans le Pacifique, dans les autres océans, on a plus de données sur le plastique, sur la situation. Mais ici, dans cette zone comme Maurice, Seychelles et Madagascar, c'est vraiment novateur. » De retour au laboratoire, Chettun Bhonul passe les résidus dans trois tamis différents : un de deux millimètres, un autre d'un millimètre et un troisième de 315 micromètres, pour compter les micro-plastiques et les identifier. Des résultats attendus  Pour le comptage des particules les plus fines, le chercheur a besoin du microscope. « Ça, c'est un microplastique. Ça, c'est une fibre, qu'on ne peut pas voir à l'œil nu, mais au microscope, on peut voir. Et ça, c'est un fragment de couleur bleue. On peut voir qu'il y a beaucoup de micro-plastiques qui ne sont pas visibles à l'œil nu. » Le chercheur se met à compter : « Un, deux, trois, neuf… douze. Vous voyez ça, ce sont des fibres. » « Notre première observation, ça dit que "oui, il y a des microplastiques dans les lagons" et l'objectif de ma thèse est de savoir si le lagon joue un rôle de concentrateur de microplastiques ou au contraire, si les eaux calmes du lagon favorisent la sédimentation, c'est-à-dire la chute des microplastiques vers le fond du lagon. » Autrement dit, une fois dans la mer, jamais, les micro-plastiques ne disparaissent tout à fait. Les premiers résultats de cette grande étude sont attendus pour septembre 2025. À lire aussiOcéans: état des lieux autour du continent africain [1/3]

Join Greg Alba & Tara Erickson as they take flight back to Isla Sorna in Joe Johnston's 2001 sci-fi adventure Jurassic Park III. When divorced couple Dr. Alan Grant (Sam Neill, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Peaky Blinders) accepts a mysterious aerial survey, they're lured into a rescue mission by Paul Kirby (William H. Macy, Fargo, Shameless) and his wife Amanda (Téa Leoni, Deep Impact, Madagascar), only to crash-land on the dino-infested island. Stranded without backup, they must survive against the cunning Spinosaurus—the film's signature apex predator—and evade deadly packs of Velociraptors. Along the way, they're joined by resourceful hunter Billy Brennan (Alessandro Nivola, Face/Off, American Hustle) and reunited with Dr. Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern, Jurassic Park, Big Little Lies), whose quick thinking saves the group from collapsing cliffs and the iconic raptor-in-the-aviary ambush. Don't miss the nail-biting river raft sequence where the Spinosaurus attacks from below, and the lore-expanding finale as Grant and Kirby use a decoy T. rex to outwit their monstrous pursuer. Greg & Tara break down every heart-pounding set-piece—from the aerial crate drop and raptor pen breakout to the jungle-clearing showdown—analyzing how Jurassic Park III balances nonstop thrills with nods to Spielberg's legacy.

La pollution plastique dans les eaux africaines n'a jamais été aussi élevée. Chaque année, des millions de tonnes de déchets se déversent dans les océans bordant le continent, menaçant les écosystèmes marins et les populations côtières qui en dépendent. Mais contrairement au Pacifique, les données aujourd'hui disponibles sur la pollution plastique autour de l'Afrique demeurent très limitées, freinant de facto la compréhension de ce phénomène. Pour combler ces lacunes, plusieurs études scientifiques essentielles ont été récemment lancées dans le sud-ouest de l'océan Indien, zone particulièrement complexe. Reportage de notre envoyée spéciale de retour des Seychelles, Sarah Tétaud Aussi idylliques soient-elles, les plages des Seychelles ne sont pas épargnées par les détritus qui viennent s'y échouer. « À chaque nouvelle marée, explique un plagiste, on retrouve des petits bouts de plastiques, des sachets... On nettoie deux fois par jour. Même les touristes ramassent les saletés et nous les apportent pour qu'on les mette à la poubelle ». Cette pollution, visible à différents degrés sur les côtes africaines, ainsi que ses effets, restent cependant assez mal connus à l'échelle du continent. Yashvin Neehaul, scientifique, spécialiste de la chimie des océans, basé à Maurice, est co-auteur du livre The African Marine Litter Outlook : « Pour comprendre la pollution plastique marine, il est essentiel de commencer par identifier les sources ainsi que les voies de dispersion des déchets plastiques. Dans les pays continentaux, les rivières et autres cours d'eau constituent les principaux vecteurs de transport des plastiques vers les océans. En fonction des courants marins et de la topographie côtière, ces déchets s'accumulent dans certaines zones spécifiques, le long des côtes africaines ». Les chercheurs ont défini deux zones qui concentreraient des milliers de kilomètres carrés de ce qu'ils appellent des « soupes de microplastiques ». L'une dans l'océan Atlantique, au sud de l'Afrique du Sud ; l'autre dans l'océan Indien, au sud de Madagascar. Néanmoins, rappelle Yashvin Neehaul : « Il est difficile de se prononcer sur les sites exacts où s'accumule le plastique. Pourquoi ? Parce qu'il y a un manque de données sur l'étude des courants autour du continent africain ». Et c'est particulièrement le cas pour la façade est de l'Afrique, comme l'explique Christophe Maes, océanographe et physicien à l'IRD, du Laboratoire d'océanographie physique et spatiale, à Brest, en France : « L'océan Indien souffre d'un manque d'observation in situ et a un gros retard par rapport aux autres océans, tout simplement parce que ce n'est pas forcément le lieu de passage des principaux rails de navigation océanique ... ».  Pour y remédier, un programme de collecte de données a lieu en ce moment-même dans le sud-ouest de l'océan Indien, grâce au largage, à partir du navire Plastic Odyssey, de bouées dérivantes, qui émettent un signal GPS.« Quand on lâche des bouées, explique Christophe Maes, ça nous permet d'avoir une description au moins à l'échelle de la bouée, des principaux mouvements de l'océan pour valider nos modèles, et à partir de ces modèles, essayer de mieux comprendre la dynamique que peuvent subir les plastiques dans l'océan Indien. Et le second intérêt de ces largages et d'études sur leur dispersion, c'est qu'en utilisant nos modèles “dans l'autre sens”, on va pouvoir remonter à l'origine de ces plastiques qui viennent polluer l'ensemble de la région. Ça va permettre de comprendre leur dispersion depuis leur zone d'origine à l'échelle de l'océan Indien, et peut-être même plus loin ». Des programmes novateurs et surtout d'intérêt international. La pollution plastique dans les eaux africaines n'a jamais été aussi élevée. Si la majorité des déchets en mer provient de la terre ferme, les chercheurs estiment toutefois que l'abandon et la perte d'équipement de pêche dans les océans seraient responsables jusqu'à 30 % de la diminution des ressources halieutiques.

In this episode of the Loco Experience Podcast, I sit down with Joe and Melissa Basta, co-founders of Tellus, an outdoor apparel brand (and social enterprise) based in Fort Collins. They share their founding story, focusing on their commitment to sustainability using recycled or organic materials and donating 100% of their net profits to environmental initiatives. Melissa explains her role in overseeing marketing and the company's give-back programs, while Joe discusses his background in Outward Bound and Peace Corps, which influenced their company's mission and values. They discuss the challenges and successes of launching their flagship store in Fort Collins.  Tellus was seeded with funds from the sale of a previous business, Rodelle, which Joe developed into a vertically integrated vanilla extract business, connecting hundreds of farmers in Madagascar with millions of shoppers in Costco and Trader Joe's.The conversation also delves into their personal lives, including their mutual “early life crises” that led them to meet in the Peace Corps, their family dynamics and children, and how they balance their professional and personal lives. Joe and Melissa emphasize the importance of experiences, travel, and flexibility for young people figuring out their career and life journey, and the episode wraps up with a thoughtful discussion on the future of their business and their commitment to making a positive impact on the planet.  They've got great gear, a wonderful mission, and strong conversation skills, and I know you'll enjoy getting to know my latest guests, Joe & Melissa Basta.  The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more

God's call on Connie Czepiel's life began as a teenager when the Lord began to break her heart for people suffering in other countries. With a passion for the medical field, Connie joined the Air Force, but God (and the military) had other plans. Connie was educated in finance - something she never anticipated. After a divorce, and as a single mother of three, Connie acquired work as a contracted finance manager, and it took her around the world. She could have chosen to wallow in hurt and bitterness. Instead, Connie decided to put her eyes on Jesus.Today, at 76, Connie is an author in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina. She has plenty of stories to draw from as her humanitarian work has taken her to Madagascar, Vietnam, New Guinea, Nepal, Liberia and many more. She served with the Peace Corps in Botswana, and she's worked for organizations such as MAF, Mercy Ships, and Samaritan's Purse. Needless to say, this is an episode of adventure and encouragement. Connie wants you to know this: it's never to late to pursue your dreams.Listen in and be encouraged.Connie's written four books.

fWotD Episode 2945: Nosy Komba Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 28 May 2025, is Nosy Komba.Nosy Komba (Malagasy pronunciation: [nusʲ ˈkuᵐba]; lit. 'island of lemurs'), also known as Nosy Ambariovato, is a small volcanic island in Madagascar, situated between the island of Nosy Be and the northwestern coast of the main island of Madagascar. Roughly circular, it rises sharply towards a plateau and the summit of Antaninaombi at the center of the island. Administered as an arrondissement of the unitary commune and district of Nosy-Be within Diana Region, the island is divided into five fokontany (villages), with Ampangorina as the main village and administrative center. The population is mainly restricted to the northern half of the island. The economy is reliant on tourism and handicrafts, supplemented by a wide range of agricultural products. Hotels and guest houses support tourists to the island, mainly on excursions from Nosy Be.The lowlands of the island are divided between secondary forest and a patchwork of farmland and plantations (notably including shade-grown coffee), while the highlands are mainly scrubland, with a bamboo forest in the northern portions. The island hosts a diverse range of reptiles and amphibians, although this has been reduced by deforestation. The island is known for its black lemurs, causing it to attract significant ecotourism. Heavily deforested during the 19th and 20th centuries, the island has only small pockets of old-growth forest remaining in remote areas. Although the island hosts a traditionally protected forest and an arboretum established in the colonial era, protection for the latter is essentially unenforced, and illegal logging continues.During the early 19th century, the region was heavily settled by Sakalava refugees and their slaves fleeing the hegemony of the Merina Kingdom. France gained control of the island in 1840; it was converted to a logistic center for the import of indentured servants and local slaves, and later a sanatorium retreat for colonists.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:52 UTC on Wednesday, 28 May 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Nosy Komba on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Danielle.

Thanks to Jaxon for suggesting this week's topic, Coelurosauravus! Further reading: Coelurosauravus New Research Reveals Secrets of First-Ever Gliding Reptile The modern Draco lizard glides on "wings" made from extended rib bones: Coelurosauravus glided on wings that were completely different from any other wings known [art from the first link above]: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we're going to learn about an extinct animal suggested by Jaxon. It's called Coelurosauravus and it lived around 255 million years ago in what is now Madagascar. Coelurosauravus was a member of the Weigeltisauridae family, reptiles whose fossils have been found not just in Madagascar but in parts of Europe, and maybe even North America (although we're not sure yet). They were gliding reptiles that probably lived in trees and ate insects and other small animals, sort of like modern gliding lizards. But while most gliding lizards are very small, Coelurosauravus grew over a foot long, or around 40 cm, and that's nowhere near the weirdest thing about it. To explain why Coelurosauravus was so very peculiar, we have to learn a little about other gliding reptiles. Back in episode 255 we learned about kuehneosaurids, and that's a good place to start. Kuehneosaurids lived around 225 million years ago in what is now England. This wasn't all that long after Coelurosauravus lived and not that far away from where some of its relations lived, but the two weren't related. Kuehneosaurus looked like a big lizard although this was before modern lizards evolved, but it was a reptile and it was even larger than Coelurosauravus. Kuehneosaurus grew about two feet long, or 70 cm, including a long tail, and probably lived in trees and ate insects. Kuehneosaurus glided on sail-like structures on its sides that were made from extended ribs with skin stretched over them. Its wings weren't all that big, although they were big enough that they could act as a parachute if the animal fell or jumped from a branch. Another gliding reptile, Kuehneosuchus, had wings that were much longer. In a study published in 2008, a team of scientists built models of kuehneosuchus and tested them in a wind tunnel used for aerospace engineering. It turned out to be quite stable in the air and could probably glide very well. We don't know a whole lot about the kuehneosaurids because we haven't found very many fossils. We're not even sure if the two species are closely related or not. We're not even sure they're not the same species. Individuals of both were uncovered in caves near Bristol in the 1950s, and some researchers speculate they were males and females of the same species. Despite the difference in wings, otherwise they're extremely similar in a lot of ways. Generally, researchers compare the kuehneosaurids to modern draco lizards, which we talked about in episode 237, even though they're not related. Draco lizards are much smaller, only about 8 inches long including the tail, or 20 cm, and live throughout much of southeastern Asia. Many gliding animals, like the flying squirrel, have gliding membranes called patagia that stretch from the front legs to the back legs, but the draco lizard is different. It has greatly elongated ribs that it can extend like wings, and the skin between the ribs acts as a patagium. This skin is usually yellow or brown so that the lizard looks like a falling leaf when it's gliding. Draco lizards can fold their wings down and extend them, which isn't something the kuehneosaurids appear to have been able to do. But now let's return to Coelurosauravus. It too had wing-like structures on its sides that consisted of skin stretched over bony struts. But in this case, the bones weren't elongated ribs. Coelurosauravus had about 30 pairs of long, flexible bones that extended from the sides of its belly, and it could open and close its wings like draco lizar...

À Madagascar, la culture sur brûlis ou encore le trafic de bois détruisent chaque année un peu plus les forêts. En 60 ans, la Grande Île a perdu environ la moitié de son couvert forestier. Un désastre environnemental que tente de réparer l'ONG Graine de vie, l'un des principaux acteurs du reboisement à Madagascar. Près d'Antananarivo, une équipe de pépiniéristes cultive patiemment des centaines de milliers de plants d'arbres chaque année, dans l'objectif de reverdir les alentours de la capitale. De notre correspondant à Antananarivo,Une trentaine d'espèces d'arbres fruitiers ou forestiers sont cultivés le long des allées de la pépinière centrale de Graine de vie, près d'Antananarivo : des acacias, des citronniers ou encore des ravintsara que nous présente Andry Raharizatovo, technicien au sein l'ONG. Les graines, explique-t-il, sont collectées en forêts, sur des fruits au marché ou directement sur les plants produits par l'association : « Chaque espèce a besoin d'un traitement spécifique. Les graines des arbres fruitiers doivent être plantées aussitôt arrivées à la pépinière. Pour certains arbres forestiers, en revanche, il y a un pré-traitement : il faut tremper les graines dans de l'eau bouillante pour les réveiller dans leur cycle de sommeil et permettre une germination plus rapide. »Avant de quitter la pépinière à l'arrivée de la saison des pluies, les plants doivent atteindre une maturité suffisante pour continuer à croître une fois dans la nature : « Le jeune plant d'avocatier va par exemple rester dans la pépinière pendant environ huit mois pour atteindre une hauteur de 15 à 20 centimètres avant d'aller vers le lieu de plantation en décembre ou janvier. »À lire aussiMadagascar : l'ONG de reboisement Graine de Vie réduit ses activités et lance un cri d'alarmeChaque année, 500 000 plants sortent de la pépinière centrale de Graine de vie. Madame Sahondra y travaille au quotidien. Comme elle, la vingtaine d'employés sont issus des villages Akamasoa, un mouvement créé par le père Pedro Opeka, il y a 35 ans, pour lutter contre l'extrême-pauvreté : « Ce matin, j'ai puisé l'eau au puits et j'ai arrosé les jeunes plants. Pour que l'eau puisse bien rentrer dans la terre, j'enlève les mauvaises herbes. Je m'occupe aussi d'amener de l'engrais et d'installer un système d'ombrage au début de la germination pour que les plants ne sèchent pas trop tôt. J'aime mon travail. C'est une source de revenus pour ma famille et il contribue à la restauration des forêts. »2,3 millions d'arbres plantés en 2024Les plants sont offerts à des communautés ou des associations en contrepartie d'un suivi attentif.Graine de vie gère plus de 200 pépinières à Madagascar. En 2024, elle a planté 2,3 millions d'arbres sur une surface de 10 000 hectares. Mais la tâche est immense : environ 100 000 hectares de forêts disparaissent chaque année.Jean-Hervé Bakarizafy est le directeur des opérations de l'ONG : « Là où il y a des forêts bien protégées et bien préservées, il y a un climat favorable, non seulement à l'environnement, mais aussi à l'agriculture. Mais une fois que l'environnement est perturbé, tout est perturbé, non seulement la culture, mais aussi la vie et la santé humaine, puisqu'il y a une augmentation de la chaleur. Et dès qu'il y a une augmentation de la chaleur, les terres deviennent arides. Les zones deviennent plus faciles à recevoir du feu. »Pour enrayer ce cercle vicieux, les pépiniéristes de Graine de vie sont engagés dans une véritable course contre-la-montre. Si la déforestation se poursuit au rythme actuel, Madagascar, autrefois surnommée l'île verte, pourrait perdre toutes ses forêts à l'horizon 2050.

I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we have a very old Pranav suggestion, animals of Madagascar! The island country of Madagascar is off the southeastern coast of Africa. About 88 million years ago, it broke off from every other landmass in the world, specifically the supercontinent Gondwana. The continent we now call Africa separated from Gondwana even earlier, around 165 million years ago. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world and even though it's relatively close to Africa these days, many of its animals and plants are much different from those in Africa and other parts of the world because they've been evolving separately for 88 million years. But at various times in the past, some animals from Africa were able to reach Madagascar. We're still not completely sure how this happened. Madagascar is 250 miles away from Africa, or 400 kilometers, and these days the prevailing ocean currents push floating debris away from the island. In the past, though, the currents might have been different and some animals could have arrived on floating debris washed out to sea during storms. During times when the ocean levels were overall lower, islands that are underwater now might have been above the surface and allowed animals to travel from island to island until they reached Madagascar. We're not sure when the first humans visited Madagascar, but it was at least 2,500 years ago and possibly as much as 9,500 years ago or even earlier. It's likely that hunting parties would travel to Madagascar and stay there for a while, then return home with lots of food, but eventually people decided it would be a nice place to live. By 1,500 years ago people were definitely living on the island. Let's start with the fossa, an animal we've only talked about on the podcast once before, and then only in passing. It resembles a type of cat about the size of a cougar, although its legs are short in comparison to a similarly-sized cat. Its tail is almost as long as its body, and if you include its tail, it can grow around five feet long, or 1.5 meters. It's reddish-brown with a paler belly. Its head is small with a short muzzle, rounded ears, and big eyes. But the fossa isn't a felid. It resembles a really big mustelid in many ways, especially a mongoose, and some studies suggest it's most closely related to the mongoose. Really, though, it's not closely related to anything living today. It spends a lot of time in trees, where it uses its long tail to help it balance. It even has semi-retractable claws. It eats lemurs and other mammals, birds, insects, crabs, lizards, and even fruit. There used to be an even bigger fossa called the giant fossa, although we don't know much about it. We only know about it from some subfossil remains found in caves. We're not sure how big it was compared to the fossa living today, but it was definitely bigger and stronger and might have grown 7 feet long including its tail, or a little over 2 meters. There used to be much bigger lemurs living on Madagascar that have also gone extinct, so the giant fossa probably evolved to prey on them. Most scientists estimate that the giant fossa went extinct at least 700 years ago, but some think it might have survived in remote areas of Madagascar until much more recently. There are even modern sightings of unusually large fossas,

The "Marketplace Morning Report" team is cooking this morning. First, we hear from the CEO and founder of Beyond Good, a company known for its artisanal Madagascar vanilla and chocolate, about how tariffs are stirring up business. We also discover how import duties are riling the U.S. blueberry industry, which has a close relationship with processors and packagers in Canada. But first: why home prices and sizes are going down in some metro areas.

“I can see that president Trump is trying to play some kind of a chess [game] to put the other nations in the context of a prisoner's dilemma to say, okay, if I do this, what happens? If I do that, what happens?” - Professor Gowokani Jichere Chirwa, University of Malawi This week, American president Donald Trump will mark 100 days in office. His second tenure at the White House has been marred by controversial Executive Orders and heated exchanges with foreign governments. Some of his decisions, particularly the withdrawal of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), have been devastating to many African countries. These funding cuts left millions of HIV and TB patients in limbo. But it was his reciprocal tariffs that truly rattled the world. Even smaller countries like Lesotho who were slapped with a 50% hike and Madagascar who received 47%, were not spared. So, today, Africa Daily's Mpho Lakaje finds out what lessons African governments should be taking from the unexpected import tax hikes. Guests: Professor Gowokani Chijere Chirwa and Prosper Chitambara
