Winner - climate action: The Last breath, Nairobi, Kenya. A young boy holding a tree seedling with one of its leaves wrapped on a polythene bag, a straw comes out seemingly from his nostrils to the bag as though is giving it air. He is in an unhealthy atmosphere as a sandstorm brews behind. It is up to us to give rise to trees which are water catchment areas by nurturing their seedlings and planting them, in doing so, they help stop climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air, storing the carbon in trees and soil, and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere.
