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

Glass waste contaminates soil and water, creating a heave carbon boost but through recycling and creative reuse like Max Macharia's art, pollution can be transformed .

With the new strategy in place, Kenya is not just planting bamboo, it’s planting the seeds of a greener, more resilient future.
