Massive tree planting initiatives rely on lots of people planting a tree. In Kenya, a tree planting app could monitor how well the trees do over time.
"President William Ruto has said Kenyans planted 750 million trees in 2024, reaffirming the country's commitment to its ambitious goal of growing 15 billion trees by 2032.
In 2023 President Ruto launched an application dubbed JazaMiti to be used by Kenyans or institutions to document their tree-planting activities."
