This paper looks at the current issues related to funding climate change in Africa, specifically in Kenya and Zimbabwe, and shows how industry has worked with the Indigenous population to adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change. Climate change has led to reduced water resources, instances of desertification, reduced food production, and poor human health outcomes, particularly the health of women and children. Deforestation has led to rivers getting less water and these countries having difficulties in the generation of hydroelectric power. This has led to increased levels of poverty for locals.
