Support the Tana River Delta campaign

The Tana River Delta is amongst the top three of Kenya's largest and most important freshwater wetland systems with a significant local community of cattle herders and others dependent on it and who have done so for centuries. However, it is under serious threat. In June 2008, Mumias were granted a licence to turn the wetland into sugarcane plantations for sugar production and “eco-friendly” bio-fuels. The Tana River Delta conservation lobby is therefore taking the issue to the High Court to try to halt the decision.
