Meet Antoine Moses: Canadian 'tree lover' sets a second Guinness World Record by planting 47,460 trees in just 24 hours on the Kenyan coast

Antoine Moses planted 47,460 mangrove saplings in 24 hours on April 30 on the Kenyan coast near Mombasa, setting a Guinness World Record. This is his second such record; he previously planted over 23,000 trees in Alberta in 2021. The effort involved sustained manual labor in challenging tidal mudflat conditions.

The article does not establish long-term survival rates of the planted mangroves, the ecological impact, or whether this planting effort is part of a larger coordinated reforestation program with dedicated resources. It also does not verify independent confirmation of the Guinness World Record claim beyond reference to it.
