Nairobi Fig Tree retrieved by Aljazeera


HAVE YOU EVER SAVED A TREE BEFORE??



 In Nairobi, Kenya, conservationists have been able to save a century-old fig tree from being taken down to make way for a highway.



This is such a great result and I am very proud of the effort that these Kenyan environmentalists put place in order to rescue this valuable tree. 
They have been able to convince the president to issue a decree and save this tree considered sacred by the Kikuyu ethnic group, that otherwise would have been cut down to make space for a Chinese-founded highway.

UNITED WE CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING!!

Thank you Kenya!!
