To reduce the effects of climate change, the Government has launched the national tree-growing restoration campaign that aims to plant 15 billion trees across the country by 2032. Indeed His Excellency President has committed to ensuring 30% tree cover by 2032. CEMASTEA remains committed to contributing to these efforts through tree planting and growing in collaboration with schools.

Under the STEM, Innovations and ESD Programme, CEMASTEA has donated seed balls and tree seedlings to visiting schools. From July to September,  more than 300 hundred learners and teachers from  Good Testimony International Schools,  Upper Matasyia Primary, St. Bakhita Primary School and Masavi High School received tree seedlings for planting back at their schools. Karen C Secondary School and the OLC Mugoiri Girls received tree seedlings and seed balls during STEM Outreach activities.

During the school visits at CEMASTEA, learners tour the tree nursery, vegetable gardens and wastewater treatment plants, where they learn about sustainable development. They learn about biodiversity, sustainable production and consumption, and climate change's effects. The objective is to teach the value of responsibility and care for the environment through sustainable exploitation, production, and consumption. The Centre looks forward to engaging more schools in the coming quarter and continuing with national efforts to ensure a greener future.
