 Major floods have devastated Kenya as climate change worsens. The death toll reached at least 90 and thousands of people were displaced. The worst affected areas include the city of Nairobi and the western and central parts of the country. Unfortunately, the situation is expected to worsen as the Kenya Meteorological Department has issued a heavy rain warning next week and warned residents to be careful.
