Meet a young Kenyan lady repurposing waste glass at Masai Mara.

Masai Mara Kenya: Glass waste consists of 4 percent of municipal solid waste generated in Africa.
In Kenya’s Narok County, Oloilamutia village has grown tenfold over the years due to tourism. The town offers alternative, cheaper accommodations, mainly for regular visitors, such as the tour guides. But this has seen nightclub numbers grow, bringing with it glass bottle waste often dumped on shallow, open ground.

On this episode, Mary Njoki of the Anyoraa Maasai Mara, situated right next to Kenya’s iconic Maasai Mara on the Ololaimutia gate side, talks to the Africa Climate Conversations about her effort to collect glasses from the town, repurpose them, and sell them to the local market.
