One Of The Reasons Why We Started The Green Belt Movement Is To Work With These Ordinary Peasant Farmers So As To Educate Them That, Despite The Fact That They Are Poor, It Is In Their Interest To Protect The Soil That They Have, To Protect The Forest They Have, To Protect The Land That They Have, Because If They Don't Do It, Things Can Be Only Worse Tomorrow For Them For Them And For Their Children.

You Cannot Protect The Environment Unless You Empower People, You Inform Them, And You Help Them Understand That These Resources Are Their Own, That They Must Protect Them.
