Dear Countrymen & Women,

Planting and nurturing trees is one of the easiest things to do to save ourselves from the Climate Change Crisis. Each and everyone of us, including children, can do it.

Joined by the people of Kapsiro in Mt. Elgon to plant trees for my birthday today, at the bare minimum, let’s plant our age, AND, before anyone asks, we planted 10,000!
