Pres Ruto named in inaugural top 100 climate change makers list

President William Ruto has been named in the inaugural TIME100 Climate list of change-makers in climate action. According to TIME, the list aims to recognise those who are linking climate action and business value,  “because we believe progress for the planet will come from the engagement with and leadership by the business world”. Other notable figures on the list include YouTube content creator Mr Beast, singer Billie Eilish, music band Coldplay, filmmaker James Cameron, Rockefeller Foundation President Rajiv Shah, US Special Envoy for Climate Change John Kerry, business tycoon Bill Gates and Barbados Prime Minister Mia Mottley. President Ruto was placed in the Defenders category of the list, with TIME describing him as a “leader on green investment for Africa”. The publication also recognised President Ruto’s achievement in organising the first Africa Climate Summit, which secured $23 billion in funding for green projects on the continent. According to the magazine, the TIMES100 Climate list was compiled using the latest data by selecting individuals who are leading change in five critical fields: energy, nature, finance, culture and health.  https://ntvkenya.co.ke/news/president-william-ruto-recognised-on-time100-climate-list/

          It is commendable that Pres Ruto has been named in the top 100 climate change makers list. Climate change is a pressing issue that requires global attention and action. It is encouraging to see leaders being recognized for their efforts in addressing this crisis. I hope this recognition will further motivate Pres Ruto and other leaders to continue working towards implementing sustainable solutions and policies to combat climate change.
