‘Cayman Mangroves’ Exhibition

KPC and KFS teamed up to plant over 60,000 mangroves in Mombasa. They aim to accelerate tree planting across Kenya for ten years to achieve 30% tree cover by 2032. This week, 61,500 trees were planted in Tudor Creek with the help of five CFAs. KPC has already grown 500,000 trees. The goal is to conserve mangroves to increase fish population in the ocean.

In recent conservation research, studies emphasize the critical role mangrove forests play in coastal protection against waves and tsunamis.
These findings underscore the importance of mangroves in enhancing the resilience of coastal regions facing global climate change.

Cambodian fishermen are facing a decline in fish stocks due to climate change, overfishing, dam-building, and wetland conversions. This is impacting their income and food supplies. Extreme weather conditions prevent them from fishing regularly. The Mekong River’s flow reversal into the Tonle Sap Lake is disrupted, affecting livelihoods. Efforts are being made to educate fishing communities on responsible practices and transition to fish farming. Cambodia is urging developed nations to take action on climate change at COP28.
