Plants a forest
Wangari lives in the lush, green, land of rural Kenya where trees tower into the sky and streams are full of mysterious creatures. All day, she plays beneath her favorite fig tree, and at night she gathers with her family to listen to her mother's stories.
Then Wangari grows up and goes away to school, and things start changing at home. Farmers chop down trees. The streams and soil dry out, and nothing will grow. People go hungry. After all her studies, Dr. Wangari Maathai realizes there is a simple solution to these problems: plant a forest full of trees.
