"content": "people. Today, climate change has caused food scarcity. The fish in the ocean are getting depleted and people are sleeping hungry. In the last season, this country lost many herds of cattle due to climate change. Due to the issues climate change has brought to the human race, we need to leverage on technology to enable us to accurately predict weather patterns and changes for the sustainable development of this nation. If you look at other developed countries like the United States of America, they can accurately predict hurricanes and storms. In Europe, they can predict hourly weather changes because of their ability to leverage on technology. In Ngomeni, where the former San Marco platform is, a lot of meteorological data is harvested by other countries to plan for the future using that technology yet Kenya has not been able to use it. Planning for the future is important in ensuring the country is not caught flat- footed. Three months ago, the weatherman predicted El Nino rains, and the Government started preparing and putting together resources to mitigate the rains, but three weeks later, we were told that the prediction was not accurate."
