The book reveals that that African religion plays a role in environmental conservation. It regulates the utilization of environmental resources and creates awareness of the kind of environmental resources available. It shows that Isukha religious beliefs and practices are faced by obstacles in their attempt to conserve natural environmental resources of Kakamega forest. The book shows that indigenous African traditional religious knowledge on environmental conservation is crucial in sustainable environmental conservation.
