It was a great experience interacting with mother nature at the Mt.Satima peak in the aberdares ranges in Kenya. We are dedicated to the preservation and conservation of the mountain ecosystems.
Peatlands, which cover just 3% of Earth's surface, store 550 billion tonnes of carbon—twice as much as all forests combined. However, some 15% of them have been drained for agriculture. Protecting these carbon sinks is vital #ForPeopleForPlanet. via @UNEP

Management actions are essential to ensuring that wetlands continue to deliver vital benefits for both people and wildlife. Wetland ecosystem services include: 🌊Reducing flooding 💧Improving water quality 🦆Providing habitats for wildlife via Rainwater Basin Joint Venture
#InternationalMountainDay As we celebrate International mountain day, we acknowledge the benefits of mountain ecosystems in enhancing the global quality of life.
From cutting-edge drone and satellite technology for forest monitoring, to sustainable substitutes derived from trees for plastics, building materials & fabrics, innovation can help us ✅ restore ✅ protect ✅ manage, & ✅ use our forests sustainably.
Forests are crucial in helping us adapt to #ClimateChange. They: 💧help ensure water availability 🌊 protect against landslides and floods 🏜️ prevent desertification 🧑🤝🧑 provide alternative livelihoods for people
Today is #WorldSoilDay 🌱🤎 Healthy soils act like a sponge, preventing floods & ensuring food security. Since 2005, our 🇪🇺 @LIFEprogramme has financed 74 soil-related projects worth €183 million! Discover more about it 👉 europa.eu/!t6bpBy #SaveSoil #EUSoil
#Forests do more for the climate than store and sequester carbon. 🌳 🌴 For example, they: ✅ regulate rainfall ✅ provide cooling benefits ✅ protect coastal areas ✅ provide forest products for local communities facing climatic threats via @FAO
🏜 Ecological succession transforms ecosystems: 1. Each stage prepares for the next. 2. Biomass builds soil. 3. Mature soil supports stable communities (e.g., forests). Microbiomes aid this process, and regenerative farming preserves natural soil formation. via @gpi2050
Here are 6 of the key characteristics of Nature-based Solutions (NBS). 🍄These allow us to distinguish NBS from other measures that use nature or natural processes. via @Umweltbundesamt
Climate change, nature, and people are intrinsically connected 🔄 Taking action on climate change means adopting and implementing ambitious programs that prioritize these links. Learn more about the connections between these 3️⃣ elements through this @WWF graphic. 👇
In line with the restoration agenda on World Environment Day, focus ought to be put on mountain ecosystems as well due to their crucial role in water catchment.
We can't achieve the #GlobalGoals if our ecosystems are unhealthy. From farmlands for #ZeroHunger to forests for life on land, vibrant ecosystems are crucial for our brighter tomorrow. Be part of #GenerationRestoration: ➡️decadeonrestoration.org @UNEP @FAO
A peek of the Longonot hike. The first of the Mt.Kenya prep series.
Mackinder's Mt.Kenya hike The unending rains made it quite a challenging hike but we soldiered on well.
During Kenya's inaugural National Tree Planting Day where we took part in planting 700 seedlings at the Kileleshwa primary school.
We commemorated the National Tree Planting Day at the Kileleshwa Primary school. We thank the Kileleshwa community and the leadership for the hospitality and goodwill for the environment at large. @RobertAlai
