According to @irene_asuwa Communities need to be attentive to who become their legislators because they interact first with some punitive laws affecting communities.
Most companies that take advantage of community resources also use legislators to gain entry into the community.

#JoinOurNewsroom such a timely conversation given the political situation Kenya is in at the moment. Despite being in a #ClimateCrisis how many political parties or manifestos have we seen that have clearly outlined actions towards climate change?

Forests provide habitats for animals, human livelihood, watershed protection, prevent soil erosion and mitigate climate change.
Let's work together to build a path to recovery of Our Forests.
GROW,CONSERVE AND PROTECT FORESTS.

With more and more of our land looking like this where do we hope to go from here. Cutting down trees and clearing our forests in the name of economic activities is finishing our natural resources and causing us more harm than good #protectourforests #InternationalDayofForests

Interesting questions coming up already; "when we go out there to look for funding for climate change, how much of our own taxes actually go to the same?" @OchiengPatrick @CClimateVoices
