Almost half of the #irrecoverable carbon in #Kenya is outside #protected/conservation areas. We need to target these areas in our efforts to fight #climatechange @Jamah2000 @vitalsignsdata @KeForestService @theGEF @ConservationOrg @Sir_Psam @PeterAlele @Esendivictor

Kenya is progressing on well with the development of an Integrated #Monitoring, Reporting & #Verification system; vitalsigns.org/blog/kenya%E2… This will help centralize the #climatechange actions @vitalsignsdata @Environment_Ke @kilimoKE @Sir_Psam @PeterAlele @Esendivictor

Ever wondered how you can quickly turn #EO data to information that can guide restoration efforts? Then trends.earth could be the solution. #Map #Landdegradation #carbonemission due to #deforestation determine #potentialrestoration sites

With #EarthObservation projects can be monitored & assessed even when going to the field is challenging, costly & inappropriate. Read an article from @endenga on how #remotesensing has been applied to M&A the @ResFoodSystems project @ICRAF @IFAD @vitalsignsdata @ConservationOrg

The trainees learnt about trends.earth, a tool developed by @ConservationOrg to cost-effectively monitor land degradation. The tool is used by countries to report on their land degradation neutrality obligations to @UNCCD. 2/
