Does anyone have any views on the pending /proposed development of the Tana River Delta in Kenya? I'm a volunteer campaigner & am concerned that the Delta is at threat from foreign companies taking over land for dubious agricultural schemes. In particular, the
Canadian company Bedford Biofuels is trying to grow the biofuel crop Jatropha curcas which in our view would have a devestating impact on the
environment and biodiversity in the area. The Tana River Delta in Kenya has vast tourism potential and importance to birds that migrate from Europe
and Asia. If you agree would you sign and promote the following global community petition and help raise awareness and pressure on the Kenyan
government?.......
