Usikate miti (Do nut cut trees) song by Brenda and Sharon highlights the value of trees like their ecological value of providing oxygen, improving air quality, control climate by moderating the effects of the sun, rain and wind and supporting wildlife. Trees also provide us medicine like the Neem tree (Azadirachta indica) leaves are used to treat malaria.
Kenya's current tree cover is 7.6% against the recommended 10%. Indiscriminate cutting of trees and lack of a tree planting culture is hampering Kenya's quest of attaining 10% cover as envisioned. It's advisable for two trees to be planted for each cut down, the youth should embrace tree growing as a way of life and counties should take a lead role in ensuring that their counties attain a 10% forest cover to complement the National government's efforts.
