Founder, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Ecosave Africa, Mr. Daniel Wanjuki, has sounded the alarm on the growing environmental crisis, affirming that climate change is no longer a future concern but a current and escalating reality.
A renowned environmentalist and thought leader in sustainable development, Mr. Wanjuki shared compelling insights into how climate patterns have shifted and how the natural world is steadily losing its rhythm. He pointed out that ordinary experiences once taken for granted are now vanishing.
“Morning dew on the grass, birds chirping at dawn, the predictable seasons all these have changed. We may not notice it daily, but nature is quietly sending distress signals,” said Mr. Wanjuki.
He warned that deforestation, pollution, unregulated industrial activity and poor waste management are driving the planet to the brink. These human actions, he said, have severely disrupted ecosystems, led to erratic weather patterns and put food and water security at risk.
Mr. Wanjuki called on every stakeholder, from government institutions and businesses to local communities and individuals, to take immediate action. He emphasized that climate change must be treated as an emergency, not just a topic for conferences or reports.
“We cannot grow our economy or live healthy lives if our environment is collapsing. Climate change affects agriculture, health, infrastructure and even peace. It is everyone’s business,” he stated.
To address the crisis, Mr. Wanjuki recommended reforestation, clean energy adoption, recycling and public education as core components of any serious climate strategy. He urged the government to prioritize enforcement of environmental laws and invest in technologies that promote green living.
He also challenged citizens to shift their attitudes and habits, from reducing single-use plastics to supporting eco-friendly businesses.
Through his work at Ecosave Africa, Mr Wanjuki continues to advocate for a greener, cleaner Kenya built on science, awareness and sustainable practices.
“Let us not wait until it is too late. The time to act is now, not tomorrow,” he concluded passionately
