MOSHI HUU USIPODHIBITIWA IPASAVYO UTALETA ATHARI GANI KWA BINADAMU?

 

Wengi wamekuwa na dhana kuwa uharibifu wa mazingira unatokana na utupaji taka,

ukataji miti na kadhalika, lakini moshi

 utokanao na vyombo vya usafiri, ama viwanda na vitu vingine, halionekani kama ni tatizo na una athari kwa viumbe hai hususani binadamu.

ni wakati wa kujiuliza ni kwa namna gani tunaweza kudhibiti hali hiyo?   

KNOW TREE LADY-WANGARI MAATHAI

I believe that,there are some people who did't know anything about the most succesful activist who managed to motivate people of Kenya in environmental activities like Wangari Maathai  

Wangari has been a woman of action in promoting tree planting in order to conserve environment  which is a pearl in the world we have.

Wangari Maathai She was born in 1^st April 1940 at Ihithe village in Nyeri District, Wangari environmentalist  is a shining and she was example of how one woman’s passion, vision, and determination inspired great change in the society.

        

“The generation that destroys the environment not the generation that pays the price,that is the problem”

it’s the statement of the women who struggling in order to serve environment in Kenya  the late Wangari Maathai .

its a statement of a professor Wangari  and not forgotten in the pursuit of environmental protection for the nation of Kenya is not  only Kenya  but for the whole world the issue of environment is very important for every one.

you may read her quotes you will realize that she has been a dominant position in the fight for the liberation of the environment from damage by living organisms as humans,

for the moment it is advisable then each of us taking responsibility for actions honor as she did the era of his life.

there are many quotes that has been heavy all she does the act of awareness...

"you can't protect the enviornment unless you empower people,you inform them,and you help them understand that these resources are their own,that they must protect them"

These  quotes  are among the various  in which She spoken to the different areas.

Wangari  Maathai, she has been in the forefront of promoting conservation and reforestation to preserve environment in  kenya  she  was a Kenyan environmental and political activist. She was educated in the United States at Mount St. Scholastica and the University of Pittsburgh, as well as the University of Nairobi in Kenya. In the 1970s.

In 1977, Maathai founded the Green Belt Movement Organization  that engages primarily by environmental, civil rights and democracy has planted 30 million trees in Kenya,

 The Green Belt Movement, an Environmental Non-governmental Organization focused on the planting of trees, environmental conservation, and women's rights.

Maathai  moved into a small home she had purchased years before, and focused on the NCWK while she searched for employment. In the course of her work through the NCWK, she was approached by Wilhelm Elsrud, executive Director of the Norwegian Forestry Society. she wished to partner with the Green Belt Movement and offered her the position of coordinator. Employed again, Maathai poured her efforts into the Green Belt Movement.

Along with the partnership for the Norwegian Forestry Society, the movement had also received "seed money" from the United Nations Voluntary Fund for Women. These funds allowed for the expansion of the movement, for hiring additional employees to oversee the operations, and for continuing to pay a small stipend to the women who planted seedlings throughout the country. It also allowed her to refine the operations of the movement, paying a small stipend to the women's husbands and sons

who were literate and able to keep accurate records of seedlings planted.

In 1985, the UN held the third global women's conference in Nairobi. During the conference,  Maathai  arranged seminars and presentations to describe the work the Green Belt Movement was doing in Kenya. She escorted delegates to see nurseries and plant trees. She met Peggy Snyder, the head of UNIFEM, and the first woman appointed a UN assistant secretary general. The conference helped to expand funding for the Green Belt Movement and led to the movement's establishing itself outside of Kenya.


In 1986, with funding from UNEP, the movement expanded throughout Africa and led to the foundation of the Pan-African Green Belt Network. Forty-five representatives from fifteen African countries travelled to Kenya over the next three years to learn how to set up similar programs in their own countries to combat desertification, deforestation, water crises, and rural hunger. The attention the movement received in the media led to Maathai's being honoured with numerous awards.


The government of Kenya, however, demanded that the Green Belt Movement separate from the NCWK, believing the latter should focus solely on women's issues, not the environment,Therefore, in 1987, Maathai stepped down as chairman of the NCWK and focused her attention on the newly separate non-governmental organization In1986,


She was awarded the Right Livelihood Award, and in 2004, she became the first African woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for "her contribution to sustainable development, democracy and peace.


Instead of that Maathai was an elected member of Parliament and served as assistant minister for Environment and Natural Resources in the government of President Mwai Kibaki between January 2003 and November 2005.


We can see some quotation  that is very important to motivate  the new generation to engage into the sensetive issue like leadership,politics,environment activities e.t.c


“It is very important for young people not to be afraid of engaging in areas that are not common to the youth. Get involved in local activities, get involved in local initiatives, be involved in leadership positions because you can’t learn unless you are involved. And if you make mistakes that is alright too because we all make mistakes and we learn from those mistakes. You gain confidence from learning, failing and rising again.”

wangari tried to motivate people to engage in environmental conservation because development depend on environment, through environment we get many resources like oil,energy and land.


 “The environment and the economy are really both two sides of the same coin. You cannot sustain the economy if you don’t take care of the environment because we know that the resources that we use whether it is oil, energy, land … all of these are the basis in which development happens. And development is what we say generates a good economy and puts money in our pockets. If we cannot sustain the environment, we can’t not sustain ourselves.”


Maathai and her husband, Mwangi Mathai, separated in 1977. After a lengthy separation, Mwangi filed for divorce in 1979. Mwangi was said to have believed Wangari was "too strong-minded for a woman" and that he was "unable to control her". In addition to naming her as "cruel" in court filings, he publicly accused her of adultery with another Member of Parliament which in turn was thought to cause his high blood pressure and the judge ruled in Mwangi's favour.


Shortly after the trial, in an interview with Viva magazine, Maathai referred to the judge as either incompetent or corrupt. The interview later led the judge to charge Maathai with contempt of court. She was found guilty and sentenced to six months in jail. After three days in Lang'ata Women's Prison in Nairobi, her lawyer formulated a statement which the court found sufficient for her release.




Shortly after the divorce, her former husband sent a letter through  his lawyer demanding that Maathai drop his surname but she instead chose to add an extra "a" instead The divorce had been costly, and with lawyers' fees and the loss of her husband's income, Maathai found it difficult to provide for herself and her three children on her university wages.


An opportunity arose to work for the Economic Commission for  through the United Nations Development Programme. As this job required extended travel throughout Africa and was based primarily in Lusaka, Zambia, she was unable to bring her children with her. Maathai chose to send them to her ex-husband and take the job. While she visited them regularly, they lived with their father until 1985


The Kenyan environmentalist was Sometimes known as the "Tree Lady," was at the forefront in empowering rural women through her Green Belt Movement to plant trees to save the planet.

In Septmber 25,2011, Wangari Maathai died of complications from ovarian cancer


Through this we learn how the late wangari did, So we need to follow her path in order to serve our environment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

THE ROLE OF NEWSPAPER IN THIS DIGITAL AGE.

a Speech By Rupert Murdoch to the American society of Newspapers Editors.he is a media Mogul also a business man.

through his speech I found so many things which I can share with you. Murdoch is trying  to imagine how can we live in this world of digitalization.

As a business owner, first he is so worried about the digital revolution, The digital revolution has brought so many difference and so challenges.

In early years a newspaper was a medium where almost every person could rely on regarding the news around the world

It's true, here in Tanzania during the independence struggle,we depended on radio, and there was only one radio which known as Redio Tanzania-RTD, so whenever they decided to tell Tanzanian's and people they trusted it.

Mr Peik Johannson, he is a journalist and training consultant,from the finnish foundation for media, communication and development-VIKES

through this training he taught us a different website,we as a journalist can use it to get facts and findings of sensitive issue like social, political and economic issues.

even taught us about Rupert Murdoch the one who never known before.

according to the speech of murdoch which he spoken to the american society of news papers editors,he said we need to realize that the next generation of people accesing news and information,whether from news newspapers or any other source, have a different set of expectation about the kind of news they will get, including when and how they will get it where they will get it from,and who they will get it from.

through this, young people'S changing habits through newspaper and other  source of information. 

In the lesson also we find there so many website in worldwide,like Google, yahoo, Facebook, Baidu, Youtube, Wikipedia, blogspot,  windowlive,and so many.
