Read the passage below carefully:

Geothermal energy development in Kenya's Rift Valley has emerged as a cornerstone of East Africa's transition toward a low-carbon economy. By tapping into deep subterranean steam reservoirs at Olkaria, the nation has significantly reduced its reliance on costly imported fossil fuels and vulnerable hydroelectric power. The continuous, baseload reliability of geothermal plants ensures an uninterrupted supply of electricity to industrial hubs, stabilizing the national grid during severe droughts. Furthermore, revenue generated from geothermal operations directly funds local community infrastructure, including clean water distribution systems and primary healthcare facilities. Although the initial capital expenditure for deep-well drilling remains exceptionally high, requiring international development financing, the long-term operational costs are remarkably low compared to conventional power generation. Ultimately, geothermal expansion demonstrates that clean energy investments can simultaneously drive industrial growth and enhance national energy security.

Read the passage below carefully:

For decades, traditional Adire textile production in Abeokuta, Nigeria, has relied on synthetic indigo dyes and chemical fixatives that create toxic effluent. Local artisans routinely discharge untreated wastewater directly into adjacent streams, contaminating groundwater supplies and damaging local aquatic ecosystems. While mechanical water treatment plants offer a high-volume industrial solution, their exorbitant operational costs and reliance on unstable electrical grids render them impractical for informal dye cottage clusters. To address this environmental hazard sustainably, environmental engineers have introduced low-cost constructed wetlands utilizing native vetiver grass and gravel bio-filters. These artificial wetlands naturally absorb heavy metals, neutralize pH levels, and break down organic pollutants before water reaches public waterways. Pilot projects demonstrate that community-managed wetlands reduce biological oxygen demand by over eighty percent at a fraction of municipal utility costs. Furthermore, harvesting mature vetiver leaves provides local artisans with supplementary raw materials for weaving mats, generating secondary revenue. Consequently, decentralized biological filtration systems represent the most viable strategy for mitigating artisan dye pollution while preserving cultural heritage.
