Der autoritäre Ex-Präsident arap Moi, die Polizisten, die sie verhafteten, und sogar ihr Ex-Ehemann, der sie wegen ihrer Unabhängigkeit verließ, gehörten nicht zu den Gratulanten. In ihrem Buch erzählt Maathai anschaulich und anekdotenreich von ihrem Leben.

Ihr Werk und ihr Engagement für die Umwelt und die Rechte der Frauen hinterlassen ein bedeutendes Vermächtnis. Wangari Maathai starb im September 2011 in Nairobi und bleibt eine inspirierende Figur, die Hoffnung in die Welt trug.
