1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 In this gripping two-hour episode, we pull back the curtain on misinformation campaigns targeting carbon projects in Kenya’s Northern Rangelands. Through interviews with local leaders—including Mohamed Shibia, director of the Northern Rangelands Trust (NRT) carbon program, and elders Peter Lekurtut of the Samboru people and&amp;nbsp;Peter Kilesi of the Maasai—we hear firsthand how traditional grazing systems are being revived and enhanced, not imposed or destroyed. 🎧 Episode highlights: False claims by Survival International and Deutsche Welle (DW) debunked The real story behind grazing plans, fencing, and carbon revenue sharing The complexity of land management among Samburu, Maasai, and other communities Firsthand accounts from the family wrongly featured in the DW documentary How communities are using carbon finance to fund peace, health, and education 💡 What you’ll learn: How community-led soil carbon projects work in practice What “planned grazing” really means—and how it strengthens, not replaces, traditional practices Why claims of land grabs, fences, and armed rangers are largely fictional or misunderstood The importance of verifying information and speaking directly with affected communities 🌍 This is the first of a two-part deep dive into one of Africa’s most scrutinized carbon projects—and it might change how you think about conservation, climate finance, and indigenous rights. 🔗 Support Bionic Planet: patreon.com/bionicplanet 🎙️ Listen now on Apple, Spotify, or your favorite podcatcher.
