	Farming in the City of Nairobi: International Development Research Centre (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The purpose of this paper is to describe urban farming in Nairobi in all its aspects: its magnitude, its characteristics, its importance for those involved, the constraints faced by the farmers, its impact on the environment, the legal and institutional setting, as well as its prospects.
		Not only in the low-income areas, but in Nairobi generally, the land on which the plots are located is in most cases public land (Table 1).
		The importance of the two crops for the low-income strata of the Nairobi population is clearly demonstrated in the figures for Korogocho and Pumwani/Eastleigh.

		The surface heat budget, and consequently the intensity of heat fluxes in an urban area, is modified due to changes in albedo and heat capacity of the surface and the texture of building materials, and evaporability, in comparison to a rural surface.
		Low-level winds passing from rural areas into a city are sustained by the presence of surface roughness elements in the form of large and irregularly spaced buildings that increase turbulent mixing thereby producing convergence and precipitation downwind.
		The presence of the metro area (the City), and the cumulative effect of the man-induced landscape changes caused by different land-use patterns in the City and the surrounding region must have a resultant impact on the microclimate of the whole province in general and the convective activities in particular.

	Waste Management in Nairobi Kenya
		The growing of crops in urban areas is an important survival strategy for the urban poor (especially for those without rural land holdings) as it reduces the amount of income expended on food (Kettel et al., 1995).
		Despite the proliferation of informal waste picking in Nairobi (Syagga's 1992 research estimated that scavengers collect 20 tonnes of the 800 to 1000 tonnes of solid waste generated daily in Nairobi), there are still inorganic components of the waste stream which are not being reused or recycled and therefore represent a serious environmental hazard.
		In Nairobi, we are witnessing the beginning of such a process as CBOs and NGOs unite to deal with urban environmental problems and poverty, and the NCC recognizes that it must radically transform its approach to urban service provision.
