Global Heat Surges as Weather Body Ranks 2025 Third Warmest Year

Nairobi National Park remains one of the few protected wildlife areas located so close to a major city, making occasional wildlife encounters outside the park a persistent challenge.

The return of rhinos to Mount Kenya is therefore more than symbolic; it is a testament to Kenya’s resilience, scientific planning, and long‑term commitment to restoring landscapes once emptied of their giants. It signals a conservation trajectory rooted i

These items shed microplastics without our knowledge. They pollute rivers and soils, contaminate food chains, and travel through the air across continents. Recycling offers little relief, because many of these products masquerade as paper or natural fiber

According to the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), Craig was a legendary super tusker, famed for his immense, ground sweeping tusks and calm, dignified presence. Born in January 1972 to Cassandra, the great matriarch of the CB family, Craig lived a life that

One of the most remarkable adaptations is fog harvesting. It is a simple, sustainable technique that captures moisture directly from the air. Across fog prone landscapes, fine mesh nets stretch like silent guardians.

Plastic takes hundreds, even thousands, of years to degrade. Instead of disappearing, it breaks down into microplastics that never truly vanish. Large animals like whales and turtles ingest plastic debris, leading to blockages, starvation, and internal in

The quarter century from 2000 to 2025 was essentially a transition from warning to action. The science became undeniable, policies took shape, and technology advanced, but the pace of change fell short of what was needed.

As acidification harms marine ecosystems, the ocean’s ability to absorb and store carbon decreases. More CO₂ stays in the atmosphere, driving climate change. And that, in turn, worsens acidification. The ocean still absorbs massive amounts of CO₂, but the

As 2026 begins, one of the most meaningful resolutions you could make might be building a home. But do you know you can build one that protects not only you, but also the planet?

The Planetary Boundaries framework, developed in 2009 by Johan Rockström, Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) and colleagues, identifies nine critical processes that keep Earth stable.

Informal recycling practices such as burning wires to extract metals release dangerous fumes such as dioxins and furans, choking communities with toxic air. Furthermore, e‑waste squanders valuable resources like gold, copper, and rare earth metals, fuelin

For many people living in Nakuru County, problems such as loud music at night, noisy motorbikes, polluted air, poorly managed waste, and uncontrolled advertising are part of daily life.

At a time when oceans are under increasing pressure from climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss, the High Seas Treaty offers a clear path forward.

To stay on track with targets such as limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, electric vehicles would need to make up between 75 percent and 95 percent of all new passenger car sales globally by 2030.

UN Secretary-General António Guterres declared that the world is entering a “clean energy age.” This evidence was clear as global renewable capacity surged past 4,400 gigawatts, solar power alone grew by more than 450 gigawatts, and, for the first time in

Solidarity is embedded in the UN Charter and has long guided efforts to advance peace, human rights, and sustainable development. Climate change, however, is the ultimate test of this principle.

With this renewable foundation, Moi has revealed that Kabarak University is now pursuing artificial intelligence innovations powered by solar energy. These initiatives aim to drive advanced research, teaching, and real-world solutions, establishing the in

The rise of water levels in Kenya’s Rift Valley lakes remains one of the country’s biggest climate challenges. It is causing widespread displacement, disrupting ecosystems, and damaging infrastructure.

December is a season of joy, generosity, and togetherness. It is a time when homes are fuller, plates are heavier, and roads carry millions of people heading home to reconnect with family and friends.

As a further mark of national honour, President Ruto has conferred upon her the Head of State Commendation (HSC) Medal for her outstanding service to environmental stewardship.
