CONSERVE ENVIRONMENT FOR A BETTER TOMORROW

For the last two years, the government of Kenya have been tightening and strictly abolishing rules of deforestation especially in the main water towers and catchment areas in country which has put the life of wildlife animals and human being in big threats since there have been frequent occurrence of droughts living many in desperation after sweeping their flocks and plant to unbearable state.

After realization of these problem the government in-cooperation with international organizations forced eviction of resident out of the forest especially Mau Forest which is the main water catchment and water Tower serving East and Central Africa lakes and Rivers with their source draining from Mau Forest. through this, three million trees of different species have been planted at Olorkuto Side of the forest.

Mau Forest is the biggest forest in Kenya covering more than six district in Rift Valley but destruction have been done by burning charcoals, logging timber products for financial purposes making water scarce, animals dying in the lower parts like Mara after exposing the marine to the extreme sunlight after water level went down, the land bare, food prices are scratching the roof, temperatures are high, power is rationed… But every cloud has a silver lining:

Today after the government initiative, thing have become better as for today we are breathing fresh air because many new trees purifies the polluted environment, the vegetation is green; some thing which is rare at these months here where we normally receive short rain in December but for today throughout the year rain has been frequent which is abnormal, Our livestock have enough grass to feed also wildlife are easily found in the game hence a lot of attraction of tourist water is in plenty and all these has happen because of the little that has been done by government and the partners.

Fellow Kenyan, why not you dedicated to full time conservation for our own benefit?
