Amboseli's Craig Passing Highlights Why Super Tuskers Matter

Kenya banned trophy hunting in 1977, reaffirming its stance in 2024. The prohibition safeguards wildlife, boosts tourism, and sustains communities.

On December 5, 2025, the world celebrates World Soil Day, a global event started by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN) to remind us that soil is not lifeless, but a living system that provides food, water, climate balan

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) warns that the current trajectory of biodiversity decline will undermine progress toward 35 of the 44 Sustainable Development Goals — from poverty and hunger to health, water, climate, oceans, and land. Agri

Aware of these hazards, UNEP has published a note highlighting AI's environmental impact and providing an array of suggestions to ensure its feasible utilization.

Pharmaceutical pollution is a hidden global crisis. Drugs leaking into rivers, soils, and food chains harm wildlife, disrupt ecosystems, and accelerate antimicrobial resistance, threatening millions of lives.

Bees and butterflies are declining fast across Europe. Their loss threatens food crops, wildflowers, and the balance of entire ecosystems.

Biosphere reserves are important because they help protect plants, animals and ecosystems. They also support activities like eco tourism and community farming and they give scientists and students a place to study the environment.

People need to understand that every tree illegally cut down represents years of nature’s slow work being destroyed in minutes. Without trees, life as we know it simply cannot exist.

Understanding biodiversity is really about realizing how everything in nature is connected to everything we do. Every breath we take, every drop of water we drink, and every meal we eat is part of this great web of life.

Imagine yourself standing on a rocky hillside in the midday sun. The air ripples with heat, and a whiff of dust drifts on the breeze. Out of the blue, a bright orange head peeps out from behind a stone. The agama nods, watchful and proud, as if defending

Migratory animals are central to maintaining the balance of ecosystems. Their movements transfer nutrients and energy across regions, with whales, for example, fertilizing surface waters as they move between feeding grounds, boosting ocean productivity.

As urban populations grow, the future of wildlife depends on how we choose to coexist. On this World Animal Day, let’s celebrate not just the animals in distant savannahs, but those in our backyards and commit to building cities where all creatures, great

This World Farm Animals Day, let us remember the animals who bear our burdens. They cultivate, haul, and survive and humans should safeguard them and provide them with the humane, dignified, and supportive care they deserve as are our allies in the fight

Consumers also play a vital role. By choosing certified sustainable coffee like those labeled Fair Trade, Rainforest Alliance, or Organic, buyers help fund climate adaptation and ensure farmers earn a fair wage.

Perhaps their most important role in the face of climate change is their ability to act as powerful carbon sinks. Seagrasses capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at a quicker pace than tropical rainforests, storing carbon dioxide in their leaves and

Many successful Kenyan agripreneurs started with nothing more than a backyard and determination. There are dozens of low-capital agribusiness options that let you test your model before you overcommit.

Apart from providing more water, wastewater recycling also has a large number of environmental benefits. Dumping untreated or low-quality wastewater into oceans and rivers pollutes the environment, undermines biodiversity, and hurts human health

Mosquitoes are not the sole vectors of risk. They also transmit Zika virus, yellow fever, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis, and West Nile fever, while tick-borne encephalitis is caused by ticks, and midges (Culicoides flies) cause Oropouche fever. The c

Beyond food production, pollinators uphold biodiversity. Almost 90% of wild flowering plants rely on animal pollinators, which in turn maintain healthy ecosystems by enabling plant reproduction, supporting soil health, and nurturing habitats for wildlife.

This kind of pollution can extend beyond the intended target to causing contamination to air, water, soil, and extensively affecting non-target organisms starting with human beings.

The okapi seems to have been stitched together by an artist with an overactive imagination — a giraffe’s head, a horse’s body, and the striped hind legs of a zebra. Yet this odd combination is not a mistake of evolution; it’s a masterpiece of adaptation.

Elephants are not commodities; they are sentient beings with tight social bonds, long memories, and emotional depth. To lose them is not just to lose an animal species, but a profound part of the Earth’s natural heritage.

This World Elephant Day, we are called not just to admire elephants, but to act. Supporting collaring programs, advocating for wildlife corridors, and educating others about the role of matriarchs are all ways to contribute.

The theme for World Nature Conservation Day 2025 — “Connecting People and Plants: Exploring Digital Innovation in Wildlife Conservation” — focuses on the role of modern technology in enhancing conservation efforts.

Nairobi National Park Born in 1946: Home of the Big 5. The park's location near the city makes it a remarkable success story in conservation, where contemporary urban life coexists with wild nature. Today, it draws both residents and tourists who wish to

Methane may not linger in the atmosphere as long as carbon dioxide, but its short-term impact on global warming is far more severe. Tackling these emissions is not just urgent but it’s essential.

Biodiversity is not just about the iconic animals we know and love — it is also about the unseen custodians of the ecosystem: the diggers, the pollinators, the decomposers — the ones who work in silence.
