Unless you’re a devoted environmentalist it can be confusing keeping up with all the forums, summits and conferences dedicated to the reduction of climate change.

Recently I was privileged to spend a few days in the company of a remarkable man. I first met Kenny Matampash in Kenya in May. A member of the pastoralist Maasai people, he runs a local NGO – Neighbours Initiative Alliance – that provides support to his fellow Maasai.

Today, as part of Blog Action Day, thousands of people are blogging about climate change. For Concern Worldwide’s entry, I’ve decided to write about how climate change is affecting world hunger.

Journalist John Vidal recently visited Moyale, Kenya, with Concern to see how the prolonged drought has been affecting the communities there.
