Vendor Biography

Eco Heroes: The Waste Warriors is an inspiring tale which highlights the
encounters of three friends, Tito, Chebet and Kim, who live in Gomongo
Town. As is common for many rapidly growing cities, Gomongo deteriorates
from a vibrant and clean town to an unsightly eye-sore.
The rise in population leads to shrinking recreational spaces for children,
uncontrolled dumping of waste, and pollution of land and water resources.
There is hope however, when the three teenage friends, through reading
and research, discover that they can bring a change to the waste menace
in their town. As quick learners, they become waste warriors by teaching
others how to take care of their environment.
The adventures of Tito, Chebet and Kim will equip readers of all ages with
practical steps to create a cleaner and more sustainable world, and
encourage them to become responsible stewards of their environment.
The book highlights how transformational youthful determination and
knowledge can be, in addressing the global challenges of waste and waste
disposal.
