A group civil society organisations in Kenya, under the #deCOALonise banner, are marching this morning in Nairobi to deliver an open letter to Judy Wakhungu, Cabinet Secretariat at the Ministry of Environment & Natural Resources denouncing the coal development in Kenya, in relation to the proposed coal plant in Lamu and coal mining projects in Kitui
They’re taking to the streets to express their deep concerns vis-a-vis a certain growing appetite for coal expansion which is likely to pose serious risks in terms of health effects, air pollution, water quality and environmental degradation at large for the current and future generations.
