SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This atlas assesses Kenya's progress towards its own goals of improving the environment to achieve development goals, and delivers an aerial view of environmental change through the use of paired satellite images taken years apart. The atlas will serve as an educational tool to improve local, national and international knowledge about environmental change in Kenya and to stimulate action at all levels to protect the rich resources that are the base of its culture, economy, and human well-being.--Publisher's description
