Captain Green Calls on Kenyans to Harness the Rains and Transform Their Land into a Green Haven

As Kenya enjoys a productive rainy season, young environmentalist Kyee Mbatha, popularly known as Captain Green, is urging residents to take advantage of the rains and transform their land into thriving green spaces. Speaking exclusively through RADA TV,Kyee Mbatha emphasized the importance of using this season to plant trees to improve both the environment and local livelihoods.

“Now is the perfect time to plant trees and seedlings,” Mbatha said. “The rains naturally water them, increasing survival rates and improving soil fertility. Greening your land is more than beautification—it’s about protecting the environment, reducing soil erosion, and contributing to the fight against climate change.”

In an innovative approach, Captain Green has committed to personally delivering and planting seedlings for anyone interested. Residents simply need to send their location pin, and he will ensure seedlings are planted on their land. “I want conservation to be practical and accessible to everyone. Together, we can make a real difference,” he told RADA TV.

Captain Green has already planted thousands of trees across different parts of the country, inspiring youth and communities to actively participate in environmental initiatives. His efforts have earned praise from local leaders and residents who describe his work as both impactful and timely.

Local farmers have also welcomed the initiative, noting its agricultural benefits. “Planting trees now helps conserve water, enrich soil, and even support better crop growth. Captain Green’s work is practical and beneficial for everyone,” said one farmer 

Through RADA TV, Mbatha encourages more Kenyans to join the movement. “Send me your location pins, and I will help you green your land. Let’s use the rains wisely and make Kenya greener for ourselves and future generations,” he said.
