As we now look to the outskirts of Nai as the next destination of our concrete jungle, it'd be wise to start thinking about the consequences of:
a) uprooting farmlands with plants that in effect act as part of the cleansing of the atmosphere
b) using the most arable land in Kenya for buildings. Its ironic that most Kenyans prefer building on red soil, which also happens to more productive food-wise.

good point, if uprooting coffee in one of the most fertile areas in the country, food should be a replacement. but if land is subdivided into small lots, food production would be a likely outcome, but large intact tracts are prime targets for real estate speculators, universities etc.
