Conservation at Narok east

Everything starts with me and you.
Save my planet.

Everything Starts with Me and You. Save My Planet.

In the heart of Narok East, a powerful idea is taking root: Everything starts with me and you. Save my planet. It’s not just a slogan, it’s a call to action, a daily commitment, and a belief that individual effort, when combined, transforms communities and the Earth we share.

A Personal Commitment Becomes a Collective Movement

Every monumental environmental shift begins with one person making a choice choosing to plant a seed, conserve water, or teach a child about ecology. In Ildamat Ward, this principle came alive when Naretmuj Environmental Conservation Group, alongside Greening Africa, mobilized communities to plant over 1,000 seedlings at Ntulele, Ololerai Dam, and KAG Church. With the support of ENSDA, Red Cross, and Tareto Kenya, the initiative restored damaged ecosystems and united people behind a purpose greater than themselves.

These acts remind us: you don’t need to be a global leader to make a difference. You just need the resolve to act.

From Schools to Churches Every Corner Matters

The ripple effect multiplies when institutions like schools and churches become champions. At Enooseyia Secondary School, Naretmuj and partners donated seedlings and educated students about environmental sustainability “making Narok East green... by planting trees throughout Narok East in schools, health centres, churches.”

Similarly, on Madaraka Day, a tradition symbolizing self-rule and responsibility, students and police at Eor-Ekule Primary School joined the planting efforts. The symbolism was rich taking control of Kenya’s future by strengthening its environmental foundation.

Inspecting Progress, Renewing Commitment

Saving our planet isn’t a one-time event it’s continuous. That’s why Naretmuj’s team doesn’t just plant and walk away. Under the leadership of Lawrence Konko, they revisited past planting sites at Ntulele, Ololpironito Primary, and Enooseyia to inspect progress, plant more trees, and even distribute sanitary towels addressing both environmental and social needs.

This blend of environmental stewardship with community care embodies the essence of me and you working side-by-side.

Celebrating Individual Leadership

Every movement gains momentum when leaders are honoured. In Ildamat Ward, Lawrence Konko was recognized twice in a row as Environmentalist of the Year fortyunderlining his dedication as founder of Greening Africa and as a driving force behind Naretmuj’s success.

These accolades encourage others emphasizing that personal action not only changes lives but can also inspire and uplift.

How You Can Stand Up and Make a Difference

  1. Plant a tree yourself: in your home compound, school, or community centre. Begin that ripple.
  2. Join a local event: like those hosted by Naretmuj; whether planting, inspecting, or educating.
  3. Support institutions: school clubs, churches, or community groups to embed conservation in daily life.
  4. Recognize changemakers: small awards or public acknowledgment can light the flame in others.
  5. Ensure continuity: check on planted trees, water them, protect them, and teach children to love them.

Together, me and you become “us.” And collective “us” becomes the force that saves our planet.

A Vision for a Greener Tomorrow, Rooted in Us

Narok East is positioning itself as a beacon of community-driven conservation. Whether it’s a student’s first tree planted, a recognition for outstanding leadership, or a communal revisit to a growing grove every moment echoes the message: Everything starts with me and you. Save my planet.

Let this be a heartfelt reminder: you matter. Your action matters. And when hundreds or thousands like you decide to care, we become the change the planet needs.

TREES & URBAN AREAS.

     TREES & URBAN AREAS . Donating trees to the pastor of AIC Church, Eor-Ekule Centre, who will later distribute them to church members for planting at their homes, after first planting some within the church compound. TREES & URBAN AREAS Trees are more than just part of nature in towns and cities, they should be treated as essential infrastructure. Just like we plan for roads, water systems, and drainage, we should also plan for green spaces where trees can thrive. Every tree planted is an investment in cleaner air, cooler streets, and healthier communities. Recently, at Eor-Ekule Centre, we donated and planted trees with members of the community. This event wasn’t just about putting seedlings in the soil it was about building a future where our urban areas remain livable for generations to come. The joy on people’s faces, the hands of children helping fill the soil, and the conversations shared under the shade of older trees reminded us that environmental cons...
