Susan Kabirithu: TIST is an Eye Opener to Many Farmers. Story prepared by Alice Nkirote, TIST Cluster Servant.
M y name is Susan Kabirithu from Meru County, Kenya. I joined TIST program in 2005. This is the same year, TIST began registering Small Groups in Kenya, having been introduced from Tanzania in August of 2004. So, me and members of other Small Groups are pioneer farmers of TIST program. My Small Group is known as Thaberia C, TIST number 2005KE1163. When we began TIST in our areas, there was little training about tree species. Many farmers just planted any tree they could get. However, as we continued receiving trainings at our node meetings then, we started to appreciate benefits of different species of trees. We also learnt how some of the trees can harm the environment. This training helped me make important decisions about which trees to plant in my farm. I focused on fruit trees, nut trees, fodder trees, and indigenous trees. Though I had planted several exotic trees including eucalyptus, I decided to continue taking care of them for carbon business. The reason I kept Eucalyptus is because some sections of my land was degraded. Only Eucalyptus tree could do well there. Food crops were not surviving in that part of the land. So, I decided to keep Eucalyptus trees so they could continue holding the soil. Having planted macadamia trees at early age of TIST program, I am now reaping the benefits. Over the years, I have been receiving TIST carbon pre-payments.Though little amount, it helped me to tender my trees as well as meeting my small kitchen budgets. However, I am now reaping big! My macadamia trees are now mature and giving me nuts. I am harvesting an average 1500 Kilograms (Kgs) on an annual basis.When market is good, I do sell a Kg at Ksh 90.00. Besides nuts, I am also reaping big from fruit trees.What makes my heart more glad is the fact that when trees are giving me fruits and nuts, I am also receiving profit share from sale of carbon credits.This year, I received over Ksh 30,000! My farm has become so profitable! I feel like I am full time salaried. So far, I have planted over 725 trees in my farm.As I said earlier, some of my trees are also fodder trees.This has eased my dairy farming. I keep a dairy cow that gives me 20 liters of milk every day. This is another revenue stream. For many years, subsistence farmers considered themselves poor. TIST has truly changed this narrative. Our farms are now the biggest employer! Our eyes have opened!

TIST: Greenhouse Gas Business.
T IST helps farmers participate in the carbon credit business. Farmers receive a 70% share of profits from the sales. Profits are created through participating in the carbon business, which involves planting trees and keeping them alive for long term. Growing trees absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide is one of the ‘greenhouse gases’, which captures the sun’s radiant heat inside the Earth’s atmosphere, helping to maintain the temperature of the Earth’s surface. The Earth is getting hotter and hotter which can be very damaging.This is called the Greenhouse Effect, which causes some areas of the world to experience more flooding, more drought or desertification. The burning of fossil fuels like oil, coal, and natural gas and the cutting down of trees produces carbon dioxide. Because growing trees absorb carbon dioxide, they help reduce the Greenhouse Effect. Governments and large industries in many countries want to reduce their emission of carbon dioxide, so that the Earth does not heat up as much. They have signed many different agreements, including the Paris Accords, which have every government in the world involved. TIST Cluster Servants count and measure the trees we plant, so that CAAC can work out how much carbon dioxide the trees absorb. The unit of measurement is equal to one tonne of carbon dioxide absorbed and sequestered in the living tree. In order to make a ‘carbon credit’, the TIST program must be “Validated” by an outside third party to assure that all international requirements are met.Then the amount of CO2 sequestered by the TIST trees is “Verified”, to be accurate. Companies and Governments can then buy those ‘carbon credits’, meaning they can pay for TIST trees to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions for them. We must have honest and accurate data on trees to sell these credits to a buyer. The carbon credit money can help groups to be even more productive, effective and start new projects. TIST groups get paid an advance of $20 for each 1000 trees each year (roughly 2.00 Kshs per live tree per year).When the carbon is sold, the TIST farmers will receive 70% of the profits. In addition to the greenhouse gas payments, the TIST farmers also benefit from other TIST activities that the Verifiers have determined are worth over 40 times as much as the prepayments to date. TIST Farmers – let’s plant more trees! Together we achieve greater benefits.
TIST Farmers Combat Global Warming and Climate Change.
T IST farmers have responded to a global call to combat global warming and climate change. Many farmers have sought understanding through TIST seminars/ trainings and at Cluster meetings, to learn and understand more about global warming, its effect on the climate, and mitigation approaches. We see many impacts of climate change today. Just to illustrate a few instances of impacts - floods, droughts and typhoons are more intense. Other notable illustrations are the gradual wearing off the glaciers at the peak of Mt. Kenya, unpredictable weather patterns that have resulted in crop failures in many areas, drying of water springs and water catchments areas, among many others. This month’s newsletter will share training notes from seminars, so that we all can understand global warming and climate change better. We will begin by defining each term and explaining it further and then learn how your trees play a significant role in mitigating the effects of global warming. What is Global Warming? Global warming refers to an average increase in the Earth’s temperature, which in turn causes changes in climate. A warmer Earth will lead to changes in rainfall patterns, stronger storms, a rise in sea level, crop failures, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans.When scientists talk about the issue of climate change, their concern is about global warming caused by human activities and the extremes of climate and weather variability this brings about. Is the Earth getting warmer? Yes! The Earth has warmed by about 1ºC over the past 100 years. Over 95% of the world’s leading climate scientists say that things people do are making the Earth warmer, such as burning of fossil fuels including coal, petrol, and natural gas, and cutting forest and managing land poorly. What is the Greenhouse Effect? The greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere, called greenhouse gases - like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide, and methane - trap energy from the sun. Major sources of carbon are deforestation, gases emitted from industries, gases emitted from motor vehicles, gases emitted from burn of wood fuel or charcoal and burning of forests. What are the dangers of Global Warming?
• Severe water stress in the arid and semiarid land areas would result in more areas becoming desert.
• Increased spread of diseases like malaria. As areas become warmer, they become suitable breeding grounds for mosquitoes, and increasing risks of malaria infection. Many families and health institutions can be impacted, average life spans decline, and infant mortality rates rise.
• Decreased agricultural production in many tropical and subtropical countries, especially countries in East Africa. Due to decreased rainfall and increased breeding of pests, due to increased warming, the production of food crops may decrease, and this results in poverty and hunger among many families and communities.
Higher worldwide food prices.As more farmers get less yields and food supplies become scarce, the prices increase because the demand is high, and supply is low.
• Major changes in the productivity and composition of critical ecological systems, particularly forests. Water catchment areas in the mountains and forests continue to dry up. This will affect the ability to irrigate crops and will reduce stream flows necessary to keep dams and reservoirs replenished. This will reduce generation of hydroelectric power. Our industries, hospitals and other institutions that heavily rely on electricity will be severely affected. The supply of piped water to urban areas, as well as rural homes, will also be affected.
• Tens of millions of people at risk from flooding and landslides, driven by projected increases in rainfall intensity and in coastal areas, rising sea levels. How can I prevent Global Warming? “I’m a farmer. I can grow crops and I can absorb carbon. I can sell my crops and I can sell my carbon.” Plant and care for trees! As mentioned above, carbon dioxide is the major cause of global warming. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis and store it in the wood, roots, and soil as cellulose carbon. However, when trees are cut and burned, they release most of the carbon they had stored back to the air. Did you know each tree could create a microclimate? Trees and their cover cool the surface of the earth. Feel the comfort of the shade of a tree. Notice that the soil below is moister than where the sun bakes it with no shade. When the ground stays cooler, the ground holds more moisture longer. This means that trees on your land will help improve the amount of water in your soil and help retain it for a longer time. This will help your crops and also even help the water users in your area. What are carbon credits? To make a TIST carbon credit requires three things: 1) A real and additional reduction in the carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air; 2) A promise to keep the carbon out of the air for many years (usually 30); 3) A Verification by an independent third party that certifies that the actions have taken place according to all the rules, and the amounts of tonnes sequestered are accurate. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis and store it in the wood, roots, and soil.The amount of carbon taken from the air and stored can be measured and calculated, and then, when verified as accurate, this absorption of carbon dioxide can be sold on the world market as carbon credits. Buyers can purchase these credits to offset their carbon dioxide emissions. TIST is able to sell the carbon absorbed in trees, just like producers sell sugar and milk. With carbon, however, you don’t ship the tree to the market. Instead, the value is from the carbon
taken out of the air, kept in the tree on your farm or forest, measured and reported. The trading of carbon credits can be done through electronic exchanges, or it can be arranged between people or companies directly. We have to meet the market rules and requirements. We cannot clear forest, or cut trees to plant trees, since this is bad for the environment. We have to commit to keep trees in a grove growing for the long-term, 30 years or more. We have to report data accurately. Once trees are planted, some measurements and calculations are made to measure the amount of carbon TIST farmers trees have absorbed. Note again, trees are never actually taken to the markets. They remain in the shambas and the longer they stay alive, the longer the period of receiving payments. So, the farmer keeps the trees, the fodder, the firewood, and the fruits and the nuts. The money that TIST makes selling carbon offsets creates a new source of income and is then shared with TIST Small Groups and used to support the costs of TIST, including training, quantification, and management. Do all trees absorb the same amount of carbon? No. Trees with wider circumference (more biomass) store more carbon that trees that are thin. Taller trees also absorb more carbon than short trees.Therefore, trees that are thick will bring more income from carbon credits.This means trees planted with good spacing have a chance of growing big and tall and earn more carbon income. They do not compete for soil nutrients and water as much as trees that are closely spaced. Therefore, in order to receive good payments out of our trees, it is important to plant them in a good enough spacing that will allow them to grow healthy, tall, and big.Thinning some of the trees to harvest firewood and keep the other trees growing well is usually the best way to manage your trees. Where/who are the buyers of carbon credits? Currently, carbon credits are sold on voluntary markets and in compliance markets.They may be certified in different ways, just as there are different brands and certifications for other products you buy and sell (like coffee, and organic coffee under different labels).TIST could market its carbon credits on the compliance or the voluntary market because they are of high quality. There are many different standards in these markets with different and ever-changing rules about tree planting, monitoring, and reporting that we must meet to sell carbon offsets. We use the highest quality standards for the Validation and Verification — the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and the Climate, Community, and Biodiversity Alliance Standards (CCBA). TIST has two basic types of buyers: The first is made up of people willing to give money to encourage people to plant trees. Examples include paying for tree planting projects to make a wedding, or a conference, carbon neutral.The second type is made up of companies in the US, Europe, Canada, and other industrial countries that are making voluntary commitments to reduce their GhG emissions, either because they are good stewards of the environment, or they are preparing for future regulatory requirements. TIST is very happy to have good quality carbon credits, and to be able to supply many different customers.

Riria twambiriirie TIST itura-ini ritu, gutiari na mithomere maingi ya mithemba ya miti.Arimi aingi mahandaga miti oro yote iria makorerera. No thutha wa guthomithio, tukigia na umenyo wa kuhanda miti mithemba ngurani. Oro ho tukimenya uria miti imwe ithukagia maria maturigiciirie. Githomo giki kiandeithirie gutwa matua miti iria nguhanda mugunda-ini wakwa. Ngihanda miti ya matunda, miti ya irio cia mahiu na miti ya kiunduire. Ona akorwo nindahandire miti ingi ya kiiriu ta minyua mai, ngiciiria ngumitungata niundu wa biacara ya carbon. Gitumi giagutigia miti ya minyua mai ni tondu mwena umwe wa mugunda wakwa ndwari mwagiriru wari muinamu muno. No miti ya minyua mai ingiakurire kuo. Miti ya irio ndiekaga wega mwena ucio. Kwaugwo, ngiciiria kuhanda minyua mai niguo inyitirire tiri. Ndahandire miti ya macadamia tene riria TIST yambiriirie, riu ni ndiraria maciaro. Mahinda mothe, ni nyamukagira marihi ma carbon kuma kuri TIST. Ona akorwo ni tunini, ni cindeithagia gutungata miti yakwa oro hamwe kunyihia bageti ya riko. No riri, riu ndinamagetha maingi! Miti yakwa ya macadamia riu ni migima na niirahe matunda. Ni ngethaga ta kilo ngiri imwe na magana matano (1500 kg) oro mwaka. Riria thoko iri njega, nyendagia oro kilo ciringi mirongo kenda (Ksh. 90.00). Hamwe na uguo ni ngethaga magetha mega kuma kuri matunda macio mangi. Kiria gikenagia ngoro yakwa niundu ati riria miti yakwa irahe matunda, ni nyamukagira profit share kuma kuri kwendia carbon credits. Mwaka uyu, ndiramukirire makiria ma ciringi ngiri mirongo itatu (Ksh. 30,000)! Mugunda wakwa utuikite wa bainda muno! Ndiiguaga ta ndi wa mucara wa mweri. Riu handite makiria ma miti 725 mugunda-ini wakwa. Ta uria ngugite hau mbere, miti imwe ni irio cia mahiu. Indeithiriirie hari ng’ombe yakwa ya iria. Ndina ng’ombe ya iria iria iheaga litre 20 oro muthenya. Giki ni githima kingi kindeithagia. Handu-ini ha miaka maingi, murimi minini atuikaga ati ni muthini.TIST ni icenjetie woni uyu. Migunda itu ituikite mwandikani uria munene! Maitho maitu ni mahingukite! Susan Kabirithu: TIST ni ihingurite maitho arimi aingi. Rugano ruhariirio ni Alice Nkirote, TIST Cluster Servant. KIKUYU VERSION 3 M urandi wa TIST ni uteithagiriria arimi gutonya kuri biashara ya Carbon Credit. Arimi ni magiaga na bainda ya kiwango kia 70 kuri 100 mumanagia na wendia wa Carbon. Baita ino yonekanagia kumanagia na kuruta wira wa Carbon ino kuhanda miti na kumiiga muoyo ihinda inene. Gucina indo ta maguta, coal na gas ingi niguthondekaga carbon dioxide. Na tondu miti niigucagia carbon dioxide niguo thi ndikahiuhe muno. Atari a miti a TIST mataraga na magathima miti iria wahanda niguo TIST ihote guteithiriria kugucia carbon dioxide.. githimi kia carbon iria igucitio gitagwo carbon credits, na kiiganaine na tonne imwe ya carbon dioxide iria igucitio. Kambuni na thirikari nocigure carbon credits na uu nikuga nocirihe miti iria irahuthika kugucia. Nomuhaka tukorwo na wihokeku na ukinyaniru hari mathabu ma miti kuri aria turenderia carbon credits. Mbeca cia carbon credits niciteithagia ikundi gukorwo na maciaro maingi na kwambiriria itaratara ingi. Ikundi cia TIST nicirihagwo $20 kuri mit 1000 iria iri muoyo(kindu 1.8ksh hari o muti). Marihi ma greenhouse gas to mo marihi moiki ikundi ciamukagira tondu miti iri na mbeca maita 10- 40 makiria ma mbeca ici. Arimi a TIST - reke tuhande miti miingi! Turi hamwe nitwigiagira maciaro maingi Amemba a cluster ya Karaba kuma County ya Laikipia mari mecemanio mweri ucio urathirire. TIST: Biashara ya Greenhouse Gas. KIKUYU VERSION 4 Arimi a TIST kuhurana na ugaruruku wa riera. A memba a TIST nimakoretwo makihurana na ugaruruku wa riera uria ukoretwo kuo thi yothe na arimi aingi nimoritie mataaririo wega thiini wa semina na micemanio niguo mataukwo wega uhoro uyu wigii ugaruruku uyu wa riera, maundu maria ungirehe na uria mangihota kuhurana naguo. Nitwonaga maundu maria ugaruruku wa riera urehete umuthi. Na kuheana mamwe ma maundu maria marehetwo niguo, mbura iria yari nene muno ya Elnino ya mwaka wa 1998 iria yathukirie bururi na gukigia na ng’aragu nene muno hamwe na muiyuro wa maai iriaini wa mwaka wa 2004 muno ciarehetwo ni ugaruruku uyu wa riera. Maundu mangi ni ta guthira kwa barafu iria ikoragwo kirima-ini kia Mt. Kenya na imera citarathimika na cigatwarana wega iria citumite magetha mathuke na manyihe, kuhua kwa njuui na ihumo cia maai na mangi maingi. Mweri uyu ngathiti niikwonania maundu maria maririirio thiini wa semina maria mangitutethia gutaukwo wega ugaruruku wa riera nikii. Tukwambiriria na kumenya wega ciugo icio naningi tuthii na mbere na guthoma uria miti yaku inyitaga itemi kunyihia ugwati uria umanaga na ugaruruku wa riera. Ugaruruku wa riera ni kii? Ugaruruku wa riera ni kwongerereka kwa urugari uria uri thi uria ucokaga ugatuma riera ricenjie. Thi riria yagia na urugari muingi niitumaga imera cia mbura cicenjie na gukagia na ihuhakanio nene na maai ma iria makambatira, mimera igathuka na miti ikaninwo ohamwe na nyamu cia githaka. Riria ataalamu makwaria maundu megii ugaruruku wa riera, nimaroraga muno global warming iria irahagwo ni maundu mariu mundu ekaga na mogwati maria marehagwo ni maundu maya. Thi niirahuha makiria? Ii! Thii niyongereire urugari na muigana wa 1ºC kwa makiria ma miaka 100.Aingi a ataalamu a uhoro wa riera monaga ati andu nio matumite thi yongerereke urugari na njira ya gutema miti na gucina indo cia tiiri, coal petrol na riera itheru na kwaga gutungata migunda yao. Maundu maria marehagwo ni Greenhouse. Maundu maria marehagwo ni greenhouse nit a kwongerereka kwa urugari wa thi nitondu riera guku iguru riria ritagwo greenhouse ta carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, sulphur dioxide na methane nicihotaga kunyita hinya wa riua. Carbon nyingi yumanaga na gutema miti, ndogo ya iganda, ndogo ya ngari na ndogo ya makara na miti. Mogwati ma Global Warming ni mariku?
• Kwaga kwa maai na kuuma kwa migunda.
• Gutherema kwa mirimu ta malaria. Kugia na urugari muingi na kuhotithia rwagi guciarana na kwongerera ugwati wa malaria. Micii miingi na mathibitari nomakorwo ni ugwati uyu na mituurire ya andu ikanyiha na ikuu cikongerereka.
• Kunyiha kwa magetha ma urimi na makiria mabururi-ini maria mari East Africa. Na niundu wa kunyiha kwa mbura na KIKUYU VERSION 5 kwongerereka kwa guciarana kwa tutambi niundu wa ungi wa urugari, magetha nimanyihaga na uthoni ugathii nambere na kuongerereka miciini iitu.
• Kwongerereka kwa mathogora ma irio nitondu arimi aingi nimanyihitie magetha na irio cikanyiha, mathogora nimathiaga iguru nitondu andu nimarabatara irio na ni nini.
• Mogaruruku manene ma magetha na riera na muno mititu. Ihumo cia maai cikahua. Maundu maya nimagutuma uhei wa maai wa irio unyihe. Maundu maya ningi nimakunyihia uthondeki wa thitima ya maai. Iganda ciitu, mathibitari na kundu kungi kuria gutumagirwo thitima nigukuhutio na njira nene ma. Utambia wa maai mataownini na miciini nigukuhutio ona kuo.
• Mamilioni ma andu mari ugwati-ini wa muiyuro wa maai uria urehagwo ni mbura nene na maai ma iria kwambatira. Niatia tungigitira Global Warming? Handa na utungate miti! Ta urui twona haha iguru, carbon dioxide ni imwe ya riera riria rirehaga global warming. Miti niigucagia carbon dioxide kuma riera-ini riria ireka photosynthesis na ikamiiga thiini wayo mutiini na miriirni hamwe na tiiri ta cellulose carbon. Na ningi, riria miti yatemwo na yacinwo niirekagiriria carbon iria ikoretwo iigite rieraini. Niui ati o muti nouthondeke riera riaguo? Miti na mahuti maguo niuhumbagira tgi.
Niitumaga kugie na riera riega na kiiruru gikaagira. Niukuona ati tiiri uria uri miti-ini iria iri na kiiruru niukoragwo uri mugunyu gukira uria uri riua-ini. Riria thi yaikara iri hehu, tiiri niuhotaga gkuiga ugunyu gwa kahinda karaihu. Uu nikuga ati miti iria iri mugunda-ini gwaku niiteithagia tiiri kugia na maai na igateithia kuiga maai macio gwa kahinda karaihu. Njira ino niiguteithiriria mimera yaku hamwe na aria mahuthagira maai. Carbo Credits ni kii? Niguo uthondeke carbon credits cia TIST urabatara indo 3; 1)
Kwongerereka kwa kunyiha kwa carbon riera-ini 2) Kwiranira kunina carbon riera-ini gwa kahinda karaihu. 3) Kuhitukio ni honge ciirugamiriire ati makinya nimoetwo kuringana na watho. Miti niigucagia carbon dioxide kuuma riera-ini riria ireka photosynthesis na ikamiiga thiini wayo , miri-ini ohamwe na tiiri-ini. Muigana wa carbon uria woyagwo kuuma riera-ini na ukaigwo nouthimike na uthuthurio na uhitukio na njira nginyaniru na kugucio kuu kwa carbon rieraini nokwendio kuri thoko ya carbon credits.Aguri nomagure carbon credits ici niguo kunyihia carbon dioxide. TIST iri na uhoti wa kwendia carbon iriaigucitio miti-ini ota uria arimi mendagia igwa kana iria. No riria urendia carbon ndurabatara kuneana muti. No urabatara kugucia
carbon dioxide kuma riera-ini mugunda-ini waku kana mutituini na utarirwo. Wendi wa carbon nouhanikire New York, Chicago kana London ona kana micii
mingi bururi-ini wothe, kana uiguithanirio ni andu kiumbe na makambuni imwe kwa imwe. Nonginya tukinyirie ikiro na mawatho ma thoko. Tutingitema mititu kana miti iria iri migunda-ini gwitu tondu undu uyu niuthukagia maria maturigiciirie. Nonginya twitikire kuiga miti iri muoyo gwa kahinda ka miaka 30 na makiria. Nonginya tuheane uhoro mukinyaniru. Riria miti yahandwo, ithimi na uteri nicihuthikaga guthima muigana wa carbon iria igucitio ni miti ya arimi a TIST. Ririkana o ringi, miti nditwaragwo thoko. Iikaraga migunda-ini na o uria iraikara kuo noguo marihi maguthii nambere na kuingiha. Kwa uguo murimi athiaga nambere na kuiga miti iri muoyo na ikamuhe irio cia mahiu ohamwe na ngu na matunda. Mbeca iria TIST ithondekaga kumana na wendia wa carbon cithondekaga kihumo kia marihi maria magayanagwo ni arimi a TIST na igatumika gutheremia TIST, hamwe na githomo, uteri wa miti na utungati wa TIST Miti yothe igucagi carbon iiganaine ? Aca, miti iria ikoragwo na utungu munene niihotaga kuiga carbon nyingi gukira iria miceke. Miti miraihu noayo niigugagia carbon nyingi gukira iria mikuhi. Kwa uguo, miti mitungu niirehage marihi maingi kumana na carbon credits. Uu nikuga ati miti iria ihanditwo na utaganu mwega iri na mweke wa gukura iri minene na irehe marihi maingi. Ndigayanaga unoru wa tiiri na maai ta miti iria ikuhaniriirie. Kwa uguo, niguo kwamukira marihi maingi kumana na miti, ni hari na bata kuhanda miti na utaganu muiganu uria ukumiteithia gukura iri mitungu na miraihu. Kuhurura miti niguo wone ngu na niguo ikure wega ni njira njega ya gutungata miti. Aguri a carbon credits mari ku na ni ariku? Gwa kahinda gaka carbon credits yendagio na njira ya kwirutira kuhitukira gukinyiria mawatho ma thoko. Mawatho maya nomakorwo mari ngurani ota uria gukoragwo na mithemba ngurani ya indo thoko-ini ingi iria wendagia na ukagura(ta kahuwa). TIST noyendie carbon credits kuhitukira mawatho maya kana kuhitukira thoko ya kwiyendera tondu ikoragwo iri na ukinyaniru mwega. Kuri na ikiro ngurani cia thoko na mawatho ngurani maria macenjagia ma uhandi wa miti, urori na uramati na nomuhaka tukinyanirie maundu maya niguo tuhote kwendia carbon. Tuhuthagira uthuthuria uria niwa kirathi kia iguru muno – Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) na Climate, Community and Biodiversity Alliance Standards (CCBA). TIST ikoragwo na aguri mithemba iiri. Wa mbere ni andu aria merutiire kuheana mbeca ciao niguo kuhinyiriria andu kuhanda mit. Muhiano nit a kuriha mitaratara ya uhandi wa miti niguo gutua uhiki na micemanio iri na riera itheru. Wa keeri ni kambuni thiini wa US, Europe, Canada na mabururi maria mangi makoragwo na iganda maria marihaga na kwiyendera uhnyihia wa carbon nitondu nomakorwo mari na wendi mwega kana makihariria niundu wa ,awatho maria mangiuka thutha-ini.
