 * The project failed, however, through conversations concerning Envirocare and her work at the Environment Liaison Centre, UNEP made it possible to send Maathai to the first UN conference on human settlements, known as Habitat I, in June 1976. clumsy phrasing.
 * In the later half of the 1980s, the Kenyan government came down against Maathai and the Green Belt Movement.  Could this be better phrased?
 * Maathai was defeated in the Party of National Unity's primary elections for its parliamentary candidates in November 2007 and chose to instead run as the candidate of a smaller party. What is the name of this smalller party?
