Environmentalists Pile Pressure on Govt to Verify Survival of Over 981M Trees

Environmentalists, led by Dr. Isaac Kalua Green, are urging the Kenyan government to verify the survival of trees planted under restoration programs. They emphasize that planting figures do not necessarily reflect success, as many seedlings may die due to various factors. Kenya is currently mobilizing citizens under the 15 Billion Trees Campaign, while initiatives like that of Hillary Kibiwott, who planted 23,326 trees in 24 hours, are being highlighted.
