Through this initiative, KAM through Wildlife Clubs of Kenya will tour Nairobi institutions to champion plastic bottle waste management and encourage the students to be environmental champions.
Speaking at the launch held at Moi Avenue Primary school Nairobi, Chief Administrative Secretary, Ministry of Environment and Forestry, Mr. Mohammed Elmi encouraged students to take ownership of every single plastic bottle they use and ensure its proper disposal is maintained.
