"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the enactment of this Bill. We cannot over-emphasize the importance of a Bill that redeems our situation in terms of climate because we have suffered harsh climatic conditions and changes that have become so irregular and unpredictable. I see the emphasis in this Bill is on carbon credits and monetization of tree planting and forest conversation. Even as we do that, it is important that we have our forests and clean environment. It is also good if we are having economic value out of it. However, it must not be the overriding factor. We must still have our environment, whether we are having money from somewhere or not. We owe it to ourselves and to the generations to come. We must keep our environment sustainable. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have seen the harshest part of climate change in pastoralists counties or those that have faced prolonged droughts. We were in Uasin Gishu County the other day and I had a chance to compare Kajiado and other counties. 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."
