This is one of several films made at Imperial College London in conjunction with ICI. The entire film, except for a short end sequence, was shot in the laboratory of Professor Eric Laithwaite at Imperial College London. This is one of many examples demonstrating electromagnetic forces and in particular the linear induction motor for which Eric Laithwaite was famous. Many of what he called his 'toys' are seen, these are models that help demonstrate the concepts and forces of electromagnetic induction etc.
This was currently the best transfer from 16mm film that we had of this unique engineer in his 'work place', but for a better quality version please now go here: https://youtu.be/CmKF72CPR0s

Fertile land is scarce in Egypt. All of life depends on water from the Nile River. 85 million Eyptians are settled along its banks. The rest of the country is desert. Egyptian and German scientists have now found a way of cultivating forests in the desert sand.
It looks like a fata morgana. But the forests in the Egyptian desert are real. They're watered with processed sewage. 24 such forests have sprung up across the country over the past eight years. The sewage is rich in nutrients and fuels the growth of plants like mahagony, eucalyptus and sisal.

Can you understand the language of soil? Apollo Owuor, production manager for Kenya Horticultural Exporters (KHE) and a network of farms across central Kenya, describes how soil talks to him. He wants other farmers to listen carefully too.
This film, one of eleven, is being used to share good agricultural practice in Africa.
LEAF (http://www.leafuk.org), Waitrose, African fresh produce exporters and Green Shoots Productions (http://www.green-shoots.org) have been working with support of the UK Department for International Development's Food Retail Industry Challenge (FRICH) fund to share good agricultural practice between African farmers.
In this edition, at least 30 jihadists have been killed by #Rwandan forces who were deployed to #Mozambique. Rwanda is just one of several countries that sent troops to the country after a recent uptick in activity by Shabaab Islamist militants. Also, Tunisia has received foreign aid to help battle #Covid-19. This as hospitals are overwhelmed and running out of oxygen. And, France 24 speaks to Christine Amisi, one of Africa's top doctors in the efforts to help rape survivors.
