bordering the canopy of Abreu Forest in Kenya's Rift Valley, a line has been drawn 27 miles of electric fence, to be exact.

與肯亞大裂谷的阿布雷森林的樹冠接壤，確切地說，已經劃出了一條27英里的電柵欄線。

It's meant to deter illegal loggers and hunters as Kenya seeks to grow its forests and protect vital sources of water.

在肯亞尋求發展森林和保護重要水源的同時，它的目的是阻止非法伐木者和獵人。

It's really important because it's stopping.

這真的很重要，因為它的停止。

I mean, it's solving the conflict between the human and I'll drive Joseph Martin, who is the Abreu fence community manager at Rhino Ark Trust, a private conservation group.

我的意思是，它正在解決人類和我之間的衝突，我會開車約瑟夫-馬丁，他是私人保護組織犀牛方舟信託的阿布雷烏柵欄社區經理。

It's employing electric fences to protect Kenya's mountain forests, key catchment areas for rain that feeds into rivers.

它採用電圍欄來保護肯亞的山林，這是雨水流入河流的關鍵集水區。

That's as the east African country aims to increase its forest cover from 7% of its land mass in 2015 to 10% by 2022 meeting a standard set by the United Nations.

這是因為這個東非國家的目標是到2022年將森林覆蓋率從2015年佔其土地面積的7%提高到10%，達到聯合國制定的標準。

But what of those who are already using the forest in a ballroom where the fence was first built in 2014?

但那些已經在2014年第一次修建圍牆的舞廳裡使用森林的人呢？

Casita cousin is a member of the organic community, he says.

卡西塔表哥是有機社區的一員，他說。

They depended on the forest for honey, wild fruits and meat.

他們依靠森林獲取蜂蜜、野果和肉食。

Ark says it works to deter hunting by focusing on honey and wild fruits, such as through teaching modern beekeeping protecting the trees could also help agriculture.

方舟子說，它的工作是通過關注蜂蜜和野果來阻止狩獵，如通過教授現代養蜂保護樹木也可以幫助農業。

Deforestation can disturb local weather patterns, but farmer Joseph Karaoke says there's been more rain since the fence was put up.

森林砍伐會擾亂當地的天氣模式，但農民約瑟夫-卡拉克說，自從柵欄豎起來後，雨水多了。

You can now see it's green everywhere, meaning the environment has really changed.

你現在可以看到到處都是綠色，說明環境真的發生了變化。

Farmers like karaoke used to grow potatoes in the boreal forest, but have been relocated to adjacent lands.

像卡拉克這樣的農民過去在北方森林中種植洋芋，但已經被遷移到鄰近的土地上。

 Rhino, Ark estimates its fences protect around 1.4 million acres of Kenya's forests. 

據Rhino、Ark估計，其圍欄保護了肯亞約140萬畝的森林。
