The writer, MARY WACHIRA WANJIKU, is planting indigenous trees for afforestation and supporting community livelihoods… The Brown Olive for community livelihoods and environment conservation is a project that was established in April 2017. The project aims at curbing climate change and global warming mitigation by increasing the forest cover of the indigenous tree species which have proven to have hundreds of advantages to communities and their surroundings (natural resources, flora and fauna). The project targets farmers who cut down trees for agricultural activities, which end up causing land degradation and soil erosion. The Brown Olive (Olea africanus) co-exists well with crops and livestock without causing any harm to natural resources, especially water bodies. It improves soil fertility, resulting in more yields. It is a habitat for birds and insects, while its twigs are palatable to goats and cows. Its beautiful and scented flowers attract pollinators, thus harmonizing the interdependence of organisms in a unified ecosystem. What and where? I come from Murungaru Ward in Kinangop Sub-County, where farming is the major agricultural activity. Residents often clear bushes and cut down trees to get land for cultivation. This causes deforestation, because they never again plant trees to replace the hundreds of trees destroyed, lead to natural habitat destruction. Thousands of fauna (micro and macro organisms) depend on the ecosystem. The Brown Olive (Mutamaiyo) in context

This is an award given to young people contributing their noble efforts to the environment, which leads to promoting peace amongst abiotic and biotic (living and non-living) organisms.

Later, such great organizations as GLOBAL PEACE FOUNDATION branded me a Global Peace Ambassador, while AFRICA YOUNG CONSERVATIONIST listed me and my project as one of the top 100 on the continent. I have been a committed scout for the last 18 years. I will work tirelessly to see more young people come on board to help planet earth save our future generations. I am proud to be one of the registered Million Scouts of the World.
