  • Wangari Maathai
    WANGARI MAATHAI Throughout Africa (as in much of the world) women hold primary responsibility for tilling the fields, deciding what to plant, nurturing the crops, and harvesting the food. They are the first to become aware of environmental damage that harms agricultural production: If the well goes dry, they are the ones concerned about finding new sources of water and who must walk long distances to fetch it. As mothers, they notice when the food they feed their family is tainted with pollutants or impurities: they can see it in the tears of their children and hear it in their babies’ cries. Wangari Maathai, Kenya’s foremost environmentalist and women’s rights advocate, founded the Green Belt Movement on Earth Day 1977, encouraging farmers (70 percent of whom are women) to plant “greenbelts” to stop soil erosion, provide shade, and create a source of lumber and firewood. She distributed seedlings to rural women and set up an incentive system for each seedling that survived. To date, the movement has planted more than fifteen million trees, produced income for eighty thousand people in Kenya alone, and has expanded its efforts to more than thirty African countries, the United States, and Haiti. Maathai won the Africa Prize for her work in preventing hunger, and was heralded by the Kenyan government—controlled press as an exemplary citizen. A few years later, when Maathai denounced President Daniel Toroitich arap Moi’s proposal to erect a sixty-two-story skyscraper in the middle of Nairobi’s largest park (graced by a four-story statue of Moi himself), officials warned her to curtail her criticism.

It has since grown into a popular movement in Kenya expanding its goals of environmental rehabilitation to include broader socio-political issues in the Kenyan context. To date the GBM has been the subject of studies, which have analysed various phases of its development.

  • Green Belt and Road Strategy
    Green Belt and Road Strategy UN Environment Programme 1. Background In 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced China’s intention to develop The Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road (known as the Belt and Road Initiative) to expand the ancient trade routes in geographic and thematic scope. Through the Initiative, China will enhance economic development and inter-regional connectivity focusing on - policy, infrastructure, trade, finance and people – across six economic corridors: a China- Mongolia-Russia corridor, a New Eurasian Land Bridge linking China’s coastal cities to Rotterdam in the Netherlands, a China-Central Asia-West Asia corridor, a China-Indochina Peninsula corridor, a China-Pakistan corridor, and a Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar corridor. The Initiative will involve trillions of dollars of investments, largely in transportation, energy, and telecommunications infrastructure, industrial capacity, and technical capacity building. Some of this investment will come from two new financing mechanisms, the Silk Road Fund and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). The US$40 billion Silk Road Fund will invest in infrastructure, resource extraction and industrial and financial cooperation. The Fund’s shareholders include China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange, the China Investment Corp, the Export-Import Bank of China and the China Development Bank. The Fund welcomes participation from domestic and overseas investors, such as the China-Africa Development Fund and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank is to complement and cooperate with existing multilateral development banks to address infrastructure needs in Asia. The Bank focuses on the development of infrastructure, energy, transportation, telecommunications, rural infrastructure, agricultural development, water supply and sanitation, environmental protection, urban development and logistics.

  • Slow Violence, Gender, and the Environmentalism of the Poor
    4 Slow Violence, Gender, and the Environmentalism of the Poor Ah, what an age it is / When to speak of trees is almost a crime / For it is a kind of silence about injustice! —Bertolt Brecht, “An die Nachgeborenen” (To posterity) Kenya’s Green Belt Movement, cofounded by Wangari Maathai, serves as an animating instance of environmental activism among poor communities who have mobilized against slow violence, in this case, the gradual violence of deforestation and soil erosion. At the heart of the movement’s activism stand these urgent questions: What does it mean to be at risk? What does it mean to be secure? In an era when sustainability has become a buzzword, what are the preconditions for what I would call “sustainable security”? And in seeking to advance that elusive goal, how can Maathai as a writer-activist working in conjunction with environmentally motivated women from poor communities, most effectively acknowledge, represent, and counter the violence of delayed effects? Maathai’s memoir, Unbowed, offers us an entry point into the complex, shifting collective strategies that the Green Belt Movement (GBM) devised to oppose foreshortened defi nitions of environmental and human security. What emerges from the GBM’s’s ascent is an alternative narrative of national slow violence, gender, and the environmentalism of the poor security, one that would challenge the militaristic, male version embodied and imposed by Kenya’s President Daniel arap Moi during his twenty-four years of authoritarian rule from 1978 to 2002. The Green Belt Movement’s rival narrative of national security sought to foreground the longer time- line of slow violence, both in exposing environmental degradation and in advancing environmental recovery.

  • Green Belt Movement in Kenya
    THE IMPACT RESULTS OF THE GREEN BELT MOVEMENT IN KENYA Founded in 1977 by Wangari Maathai in collaboration with the National Council of Women of Kenya (NCWK), the Green Belt Movement (GBM) has a network composed of more than 4,000 community groups who plant trees and protect the environment. Wangari Maathai was the first African woman and the first environmentalist receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004. The Movement focuses on environmental protection by empowering rural African women and their families to take action and create sustainable livelihoods for themselves. In 34 years, 6,500 tree planting sites in critical watersheds across Kenya have been created and more than 51 million trees planted. In the 2011 Report of the Green Belt Movement you can see the results achieved during the year: 3,987,520 trees planted (70% average survival rate) and 476 Green Volunteers who worked directly with local communities. These impressive results raised the interest of other countries and the Green Belt Movement created a special branch called the Green Belt Movement International to provide support to those countries interested in reproducing the innovative methodologies adopted in Kenya. In this framework, the Green Belt Movement (GBM) trained in December 2012, 17 teams of university fellows and mentors totaling 45 participants from 9 African countries in best practices for participatory conservation work with a local community and the application of mapping and GPS methods to plan, monitor and report progress of reforestation sites. The training activities included a morning spent in a reforestation site practicing GPS skills and various methodologies for measurement and monitoring biodiversity, biomass and forest restoration.

However, green belt release has led to urban growth within the associated regions and cities, resulting in an increase in the temperature and the accumulation of pollutants in the atmosphere. We intend to prove quantitatively the effect of the release of green belts at the local level based on the interactions among land cover, climate, and air quality and to provide information for policy decisions accordingly. Our simulation results show that the urban areas of Jeju and Chuncheon, in South Korea, where green belts have been completely released, will increase by up to 21.83% by 2025 and 123.93% by 2020, respectively, compared to areas that have retained green belts. The simulations also show that the surface temperature within the released region of Jeju and Chuncheon will increase by up to 0.83% by 2025 and 0.03% by 2020, respectively.
