Expository Paragraph !

Wangari Maathai is a amazing women she planted over 200

trees towards her Nobel peace prize. Then the whole

community followed her. Wangari had a great impact of

taking care of her environment. Like when people kept on

cutting down trees. Just because of that she planted over

200! Trees for the environment. She noticed that more trees

than usually were being cut down . By 1999 over 20 million

trees were being planted throughout Kenya. After she

earned the Nobel peace prize she started the environment

and the government back up. Those are some informal facts

about Wangari's Nobel peace prize but there are a lot more

PoemWangari Maathai

The first picture I chose was for all the trees

she planted throughout Kenya or at least

they represent them. The second picture

next to it is representing the wildlife that she

is in charge of. The third one is of a natural

resource that she also is in charge of now.

The fourth picture represents just her self.

The fifth picture is of the green belt

movement that is what it was called. Th next

picture represents her Nobel Peace Prize

that she earned. The picture after that is

Nyeri Kenya where her hometown was. The

last picture is just another picture of her self.!
