    "content": "When I was in the United Kingdom (UK) during the holiday season, I had a conversation with a good friend of mine called Nick Williams. He said that there is a Non- Government Organization (NGO) in Kajiado that is benefiting a lot from money from carbon trading. I did not know that. He mentioned Narok as well. It appears that there are many Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) that were signed by the national and county governments that we do not understand. The Israelis are in Narok. They are going around saying that they want to preserve the semen of leopards. However, when you dig deeper, you will find that they have seen an opportunity in a country where people are sleeping, while people are trading billions of shillings in the language of carbon trading. This is a timely Statement. When they examine the issue of carbon trading, it will be important for us to understand that whatever we introduce in this country--- The other day, I heard from our former colleague, now Cabinet Secretary (CS), Hon. Murkomen, talking about introducing a Trump system in this country. Have we carried out serious feasibility studies on how much carbon footprint that energy consumption will use? Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support this Statement and hope that the committee will go deeper to find out and demystify further from every county the MoUs we have and who is benefiting from carbon trading in our counties when our people are languishing in poverty. I thank you."
