Global warming


Global warming affects all of us.

Willingness Is okay but Action Saves the Planet.

Act Now or the Planet Will Ghost Us

We humans are great at saying “I’m so willing!” while cozy-binging Netflix. But Mother Earth didn’t sign up for our excuses. Being “willing” is adorable, but it won't save icebergs from becoming sad puddles or bring back the trees we’ve lost.

Let’s go global Mau, Amazon, Congo, Taiga, Borneo, the melting ice and rising seas, weather on steroids, and how we caused it all. And let’s keep it funny, readable and absolutely action-packed.

1. Global Forests: Our Planet’s Superheroes

  • Mau Forest, Kenya: The OG water tower, home to rivers, wildlife, and culture facing threats like illegal logging .

  • Amazon Rainforest: The Beyoncé of forests 5.5 million km², 20% of Earth's oxygen, but being devoured by fires and deforestation.

  • Congo Basin: The carbon-sucking powerhouse of Africa 500 million acres soaking up 1.2 billion tons of CO₂ yearly.

  • Taiga (Boreal Forests): The silent giant across Russia, Canada, Scandinavia more carbon stored here than in any closet.

  • Borneo & Southeast Asian Forests: Biodiversity galore orangutans, sun bears, clouded leopards shrinking fast due to palm oil plantations.

Without forests, Earth gets dusty, animals disappear, and our air gets spicier than a ghost pepper.

2. Melting Ice and Rising Seas: Not the Kind of “Glow-Up” We Wanted

  • Greenland: Melting 4x faster than a generation ago full melt means 7 meters of sea rise.

  • Antarctica: West Antarctic alone could add 3 meters to coastlines, your worry levels, and perhaps your future beachfront!

  • Glaciers Everywhere: Since 2000, the planet lost 6,500 billion tonnes of glacier ice like giant frozen tears.

Sea-Level Recap: 8–9 inches up since 1880 and that's enough to give cities like Mumbai and Lagos water issues way before they can get a tan.

3. Weather Patterns Gone Wild

  • Heatwaves: Europe, Canada, India all melting like butter under a spotlight.

  • Rain Bombs (Cloudbursts): 10 cm of rain in an hour? That’s not weather, that’s a prank on us.

  • Floods: Pakistan 2022 displaced 33 million people imagine Nairobi underwater because someone forgot to check the forecast.

  • Droughts & Seasonal Chaos: East Africa with late rains, berries in the UK ripening early, mangoes flowering twice nature’s confused menu.

If climate were a person, it’d cancel plans last minute but now, it’s wrecking farms and homes.

4. Human Activities: How We Broke the Planet

  • Fossil Fuels: Burning them is like wrapping Earth in an unwanted blanket of CO₂.

  • Deforestation: Firing Earth’s janitors trees then complaining about the dust.

  • Agriculture & Industry: Cheesy burgers (methane!), plastic factories, cement plants delicious? Maybe. Healthy for Earth? Not so much.

  • Waste Streams: Landfills burp methane. Plastic by 2050, more plastic than fish in the ocean. Awesome.

Humans are responsible for over 95% of the warming since the 1950s.

Final Words From the Forest and the Ice, the Rain, and Us.

“Saying ‘I’m willing’ is cute. But action? That’s the real superhero.”

Your mission (yes, you):

Do this So this happens
Protect forests globally Clean air, water, wildlife, climate stability
Shift to renewables Major cut in global emissions
Eat smarter Slash methane—and your skin might even glow
Save water & energy Small acts, massive impact
Speak (and laugh) about climate Humor sticks; action saves futures

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...

Ilpedess Clan of the Maasai

  Ilpedess Clan (Maasai) Ilpedess is a clan of the Ildamat sub-tribe of the Maasai people in Kenya . The clan is primarily found in Narok County ( Narok East , Ildamat Ward ) and Kajiado County . Members of the Ilpedess clan are traditionally engaged in mixed farming , including crop cultivation, goat keeping, sheep herding, and cattle rearing. History The Ilpedess clan traces its origins to a period of conflict in Maasai history, during which a group of Maasai fled their homeland as refugees. The elder Ole Kobaai , originally from the Ilpatimaro clan , received the refugees and named them Ilpedess to integrate them into the local community. This naming also enabled intermarriage between the refugees and the host community. Symbol and Identity The clan’s totem is the monkey , which in Maasai culture can symbolize adaptability, cleverness, and social bonds. Like other Maasai clans, Ilpedess follows exogamy , meaning members are not permitted to marry within the clan. Cultural Pr...

The Mau Forest

From Mau With Love: How a Kenyan Forest Waters North Africa (And Still Gets No Valentine) By Naretmuj Environmental Conservation Somewhere deep in the misty highlands of Kenya, a tree wakes up and whispers to its neighbor: “Hey... did you know our morning dew ends up in Egypt ?” Welcome to the Mau Forest Complex   the forest that waters farms, feeds rivers, fuels wildlife, and hydrates North Africa, yet still doesn’t get enough love (or even a “thank you” from Cairo ). Let’s take a deep dive why the Mau Forest matters to every East and North African. What Is the Mau Forest Complex? The Mau Forest Complex is Kenya’s largest indigenous forest system. Spanning over 400,000 hectares , it stretches across counties like Kericho , Nakuru , Bomet , and Narok . It consists of multiple forest blocks: Maasai Mau Eastern Mau South West Mau Ol Pusimoru (which still sounds like a wizard from Naimina Enkiyo) It’s a natural water tower, carbon sink, animal haven, cultural herit...
