    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill. This Bill is crucial and important. We are aware that climate change is real. This is the long-term shift of temperatures, where an increase in rainfall leads to floods and a decrease somehow leads to droughts. We know the causes of this climate change. It is because of cutting trees and over construction, which has become the real thing now. All trees are going down and we are putting up big buildings. We also have forest fires. All these are causes of the climate change. The most crucial thing here is that as we pass this Bill wanting to change our environment and improve climate change, we need to also avoid projects that contribute to the destruction of our environment. For example, a coal project was coming to Lamu County. If we had not gone to court and done maandamano, which is our constitutional right, today, we would be suffering from carbon and all these projects that destroy the environment. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard Services,Senate."
