🚫 A ban on single use plastic bags was implemented in 2018, stopping the sale and manufacturing of them. This initially stopped tens of thousands of plastic bags from markets, stores and vendors from going to landfills, the ocean and being ingested by animals.
☀️ When it comes to green energy, Kenya is leading the way. Their study and use of solar, wind, geothermal and hydro-energy are moving them toward their goald to be fully transitioned to clean energy by 2030.
🦏 Kenya is strongly invested in conservation of rhinos, protecting the last two female white rhinos in the world. They've introduced a sanctuary model where these rhinos are protected by fences, rangers and drones, 24/7.
🐘 Kenya has taken a strong stance on protecting rhinos and elephants by banning the sale and trade of ivory. Back in 2016 you may remember images from President Kenyatta's decision to burn over 100 tonnes of naturally occuring and confiscated ivory, making a statement that elephants are worth more alive than dead.
