Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity in the 21st century. In Kenya like many other African countries, climate change is intensifying at an alarming rate as is evident from the current drought that is ravaging many parts of the country.
The National Drought Management Authority (NDMA) has declared Kilifi County to be at alarm drought phase while it has put out an alert for Tana River, Garissa, Taita Taveta, Narok, Meru (North), Mandera. The government estimates that about 1.3 million people mostly in these arid and semi-arid areas are affected. This drought reminds us that climate change is a reality that already affects hundreds of millions among us.
