(cont'd from yesterday's post)
Mungubariki says his farm used to look quite different from how it looks today. There were no trees, nothing to hang on to the soil when it rained. Up on Mt. Kilimanjaro the glacier was melting partly due to de-forestation in this region.
"Without knowledge of the importance of trees. people just think of today but not tomorrow. "Plant with Purpose" is changing that. What farming families do today is for future generations."
As environmental restoration is embraced, lives and land are changing in Tanzania. Birds are returning to habitats, streams are flowing again, and people have a better understanding of their role as stewards of God's creation.
"God cares about the environment, and we have a responsibility to protect it."
