Fresh concerns have arisen over the government's logging of eucalyptus trees in Nairobi's Karura Forest.
The conservation group Green Blue Africa Foundation has raised alarm over Kenya's declining forest cover, questioning the move to cut down trees amid a nationwide tree-growing campaign launched by President William Ruto.
The group warned that the decision to fell eucalyptus trees in Karura could undermine Kenya's long-term climate mitigation strategies, posing a setback to environmental conservation efforts.
Further, the group warned that the facing off of the trees was damaging the already fragile ecosystem.
