We are all concerned about the alternating flooding and drought conditions we are consiustly seeing across our planet. No one is safe and we have to act nopw to repair our broken hydrological cycle. Our Massai partners astern Kenya, Africa are here to be the exmple of what can be ccomplished with biodioverse tree planting. The trrees themselves becomne recyle the rain when it falls and actually help to produce more rain for the region. Trees cool off the water vapor and evo-transpire cool cumulous clouds which are more stable and can drop balanced rain instead of the flooding downpourtas which in turn deprive other areas of steady and predictable rainfall. We need healthy rainfall to grow our food and replenish our potable drinking water reservoirs. Trees are the best "rainmakers" that simultaneously give so many other benefots like good for humans and animals, shade, lower temperatures and healthy soils.
We truly value our planting partners in Kenya especially the leader,Dalmas, who is our primary contact and helps us to distribute the trees each year and the fair pay for families planting and tending them to maturity. We never ask anyone to work for free because creating jobs is part of the sucess of long term forest restoration and regeneration of healthy economic and ecological systems.
We more forward to sending more money soon for planting more trees with families in Enkutoto Nahalala.
