In a move towards mitigating climate change effects, Eldoret Water and Sanitation Company (Eldowas) led various stakeholders, students, residents and corporates in a tree-planting exercise at Kaptagat Forest in Uasin Gishu County.

At the forest, where the water company intends to increase cover to 15 per cent, it planted over 200 indigenous trees.
