Aquaponics combines two growing methods, aquaculture and hydroponics, to create a self-contained, well-balanced ecosystem. Fish are fed and raised in a tank and as gravity pulls the wastewater through a hydroponic garden, bacteria feed on the waste, breaking it down into essential nutrients for the plants to grow. The system then returns the cleaned water back to the fish reservoir so the process can begin again.

In this episode, Charles Collins shares his backyard aquaponic and hydroponic gardens where he's able to grow tilapia, leafy greens, peppers, herbs and so much more, all in the suburban desert. Together we grow!

ABOUT PARAGRAPHIC

A story is more than a title. We are a small team of independent filmmakers focused on emerging interests. We love exploring the wide landscape of these enthusiast communities through personal stories from their most passionate creators. The underdog, the obsessed, the misunderstood, the ones who have committed everything to their craft. For them it's more than a hobby; it's a way of life.

From garage bakeries and gourmet mushrooms to vertical farming and worm composting, these stories will elevate your understanding and deepen your appreciation.

Look beyond the impression.

Virtual Plant Cell: Into Aquaporins highlights the important role that aquaporin proteins play in shuttling water, carbon dioxide and other molecules vital to good plant health, into and out of plant cells.

See https://plantenergy.edu.au/outreach/resources for materials to support classroom use of VPC: Into Aquaporins. This is a curriculum-aligned resource that addresses topics including diffusion across membranes, transcription and translation. This video can also be used with the lesson plan resource: Planting Science: Classifying Systems in Cells (year 7-10), developed by the ARC Centre of Excellence for Translational Photosynthesis: http://photosynthesis.org.au/years7-10/

TRANSCRIPT:
Plants are amazing. They create energy from sunlight and they use this energy to create what we use for our food, fuel and fibre, and this takes us on a journey deep into the inner world of a plant cell.

Plant cells collect sunlight and use it to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar. This process is called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis happens inside the many green chloroplasts found around a plant cell.

The movement of water, carbon dioxide and other molecules like nitrogen, sugars and salts are vital for good plant health.

But how do water and other solutes get into the cell? Aquaporins are here to help. Aquaporins are tiny protein channels that are created in plant cells. They facilitate diffusion, the movement of important solutes, across cell membranes.
Aquaporins can be found in different membranes of the cell.

Water, carbon dioxide, and more is moved across these membranes, via aquaporin channels, as required.

Let’s see how plant cells create aquaporins when needed.

Proteins like aquaporins are coded for by genes. This is a sequence of information within a cell’s DNA. A message, called RNA, is first created from a gene through a process called transcription.

Messages move out of the nucleus to the ribosome. Here, the RNA message is “read” to create an aquaporin protein. This process of building a protein from an RNA message is called translation.

Aquaporins, like all proteins in a cell, have a unique structure. An aquaporin’s main function is to act as a channel that sits in a membrane. The aquaporin’s structure reflects this role.

Through research we can come to understand how aquaporins work, and how they work best. We can apply this knowledge to produce higher yielding crop plants by maximising their photosynthesis, improving their salt tolerance and enhancing their ability to survive challenging environmental conditions. And more efficient and resilient crops will ensure a secure food future.

Superswarm (2009)
When animals swarm they create a super-organism of incredible power. They can attack our food supplies, immobilise our transport systems, undermine our cities and even attack our energy supplies. They can stop us in our tracks. Using state-of-the-art photography, Superswarms reveals the collective intelligence behind the animal invasions, and how man fights back.

In Barbados and the wider Caribbean, the use of calabash has traditionally been a practical vessel for storage and food serving in the home. This three-part series is designed to preserve and develop the knowledge of calabash carving in Barbados via its two surviving practitioners: artisans Adrian Compton and Ras Isage Burnette.

The Liberation Army also wants to close the operations of foreign companies that are exploiting Papua's resources.

Major General Telenggen specifically mentioned the oil and gas multi-national BP with its gas project in Bintuni Bay, and the US mining giant Freeport which runs the massive Grasberg gold and copper mine in Mimika.

The Freeport mine, which is one of Indonesia's largest single sources of revenue, has long been the subject of West Papuan grievances over environmental and social impacts.

As well, Papuans have complained about not being consulted over the control of Freeport, and about not gaining any benefit from its lucrative operations.

Benny Wenda is an independence leader and founder of the Free West Papua Campaign. He gives a talk about the history of West Papua’s struggle for independence, and highlights the massive human rights abuses of the Indonesian government against the West Papuan people. Not many people know about West Papua’s struggle, and Wenda travels to give talks to gain support and awareness to West Papua’s struggle for independence, especially hoping to gain support from African nations.
