The Forestry Department, in all its efforts, protects Jamaica's forest resources, never exploiting them. #DontBeMisled The Forestry Department does not condone illegal logging activities. #forestrydeptja #forestsmatter #quickstep #cockpitcountry

Yet Curry would like us to believe that he has a right to destroy our country because of some colonizers' gifting them land in exchange for Jamaican lives, thank you for providing the evidence

So, Richard Currie didn't see the illegal logging and restrict those people, only the authorities when they came to stop the activity? Things that make you go hmmmm!!!

Trees are being cut down in Karura Forest and allegedly someone has bought the land. Can the Kenya Forest Service explain why logging is being done within the forest? The cutting down of trees has been done on a very large portion.

A group of youths from the Atewa Forest area visited a mining site to confront individuals engaged in illegal mining (galamsey). They explained that, although they too were young and faced hardships, they chose not to engage in galamsey because of its devastating impact on the forest and water bodies.

ON SECURITY “The Sambisa Forest is 60,000 km². It is bigger than the whole of Belgium, which is 30,528 km², bigger than Denmark, which has a country area of 42,933 km², and bigger than Switzerland, which has a country area of 41,285 km². To do surveillance in Sambisa Forest means the FG would be doing surveillance over an area equivalent to Belgium, Denmark, and Switzerland in terms of land size, considering the resources we have at hand. The same Sambisa Forest is smaller in land size than Niger State. These criminal elements exploit these ungoverned spaces. That’s why Mr. President initiated the forest ranger program, which will help curb those who are using our forests for illicit purposes.”

There has been ongoing cutting of trees at Empakasi Forest in Kerarapon. Today, Oloolus residents together with the Community Forests Association have occupied the forest and chased away the loggers like burukenge. It's suspected that a powerful figure in Kajiado is behind the logging and there are attempts to grab the forest land.
