Kenya has officially launched its National Carbon Registry, a defining milestone in our climate journey and a clear signal that we are moving from ambition to implementation.

This registry is the strategic infrastructure that enables a credible, functioning carbon market. By digitising and standardising the tracking of projects, credit issuance, transfers, and corresponding adjustments, we are embedding transparency, environmental integrity, and investor confidence at the core of Kenya’s carbon market ecosystem.

Designed for global interoperability, it positions Kenya to align with international standards while ensuring that carbon finance delivers real climate impact, supports sustainable development, and creates equitable value for our communities.

Honoured to have marked this milestone alongside Dr. @DrDeborahbarasa, Cabinet Secretary for Environment, Climate Change and Forestry; @Eng_F_Ngeno Principal Secretary, @EnviClimateC_Ke Department for Environment and Climate Change; Mr. Gitonga Mugambi, EBS, Principal Secretary, State Department for Forestry; Prof. Mamo B. Mamo, Director General of the National Environment Management Authority @NemaKenya; Mr. Emilio Mugo, Chair of the NEMA Board of Management; @EUAmbKenya Ambassador Henrietta Geiger; Ms. Maren Kneller, Head of Cooperation at the Embassy of Germany Nairobi @GermanyinKenya; and H.E. Ambassador H.E. Valentin Zellweger, Ambassador of Switzerland to Kenya @SwissEmbassyKE.

This is Kenya laying the institutional foundation to scale climate investment, accelerate clean energy transitions, and contribute meaningfully to global climate goals. To a greener, and prosperous future.

@fattylincorn_01 Innovation is the only solution when the exisitng system doesn't work for your business, disrupt the order. If they won't invite you to the table, create your own.

@LinusKaikai @WilliamsRuto How will it be financed. That's the crux of the matter

Quick question :

You have 50 microservices, each with its own API.

The frontend team is losing their mind.

To render a single page, they make 10+ network calls.

The app is sluggish. Users are complaining.

How do you fix this ?

@bonifacemwangi @BrianAboso25281 Kenya has brilliant tech engineering talent. Focus on manufacturing, direct this capital as soft capital to the most viable local manufacturing outfits at early stage. Export high quality products, build industries & jobs, reduce unemployment which is the biggest killer of joy

China sent goods worth Sh305 billion to Kenya in the first six months of 2025.

In the same period, Kenya’s exports to China were only Sh4.4 billion, showing a big trade gap

A UAE-backed firm, Aquilastar Corp, is setting up a Sh19 billion EV assembly plant in Naivasha’s Green Energy Park.

The factory is set to produce 50,000 units annually, create 13,000 jobs, and run on geothermal power.

Hey ambitious devs, this weekend you should expand your skills by building your own LLM from scratch with Python. 🐍

freeCodeCamp just dropped a 6-hour intermediate course on this. Here are this week's five freeCodeCamp resources that are worth your time:

1. freeCodeCamp just published an in-depth Python course that will walk you through training your own Large Language Model. If you have some basic programming skills and want to get deeper into Machine Learning, this is an excellent place to start. You'll learn about key concepts like Reward Modeling, Supervised Fine-Tuning, Mixture-of-Experts Layers, RMSNorm, RoPE, KV caching, and more. Dive in. (6 hour YouTube course): https://t.co/HXVNrkVGrb

2. We also published a Python course that will help you build production-ready AI systems. This no-nonsense course will take you step by step through building a sophisticated data pipeline that scrapes training data, cleans it up, and ensures its integrity before feeding it into your model. I love this dude's relentless teaching style. (2 hour YouTube course): https://t.co/lnGfMnbJMq

3. On this week's freeCodeCamp podcast I interview Ihechikara Abba, a software engineer with a Chess Elo of 2285, which puts him among top players. We talk about his recent freeCodeCamp course on checkmate patterns, and how improving your chess game can also improve your programming. He also shares tips for getting into embedded systems development with Arduino. (1 hour watch or listen in your favorite podcast app): https://t.co/jaOcpZ3UL8

4. freeCodeCamp also published a course on building advanced AI agents. You'll use Python to implement interactive voice agents and intelligent research assistants. This course will even expose you to multi-agent workflows. You'll use sample codebases and popular tools like LangChain and LiveKit to code along at home. (1 hour YouTube course): https://t.co/h074rMry43

5. Memory leaks are one of the most common performance issues with React apps. This JavaScript tutorial will walk you through the most common ways they afflict your apps. Then it'll equip you with the tools you need to track memory leaks down and fix them. It's chock full of code examples for Event Listeners, Timers, Subscriptions, and Async Operations. (15 minute read): https://t.co/0F1fsYPfaY

These are just some of the many open source learning resources the freeCodeCamp community published this week. As you may know, we also launched daily coding challenges, which you can solve in Python or JavaScript – right inside the freeCodeCamp iPhone/Android app. We've got a lot of pots cooking, with tons more courses on the way. Please consider joining the 10,881 kind folks who support our charity and our mission: https://t.co/PJXlqTfhI9

Quote of the Week:
“If you don't like playing the social media game, contributing code to open source projects can serve as an alternative to building up a social media presence.” — Software Engineer Ihechikara Abba on this week's freeCodeCamp podcast

Happy coding.
