"content": "The corporations that fall under this Ministry are not known to be involved in carrying out critical social responsibilities. We are urging the Minister to look into this because any business organization has a moral obligation to reach out to the communities they are serving and be involved in social responsibilities. We would like to see social responsibilities being carried out by the Minister. I want to disagree with carbon trading. Carbon trading is not our making. African continent did not create this problem. This problem is a creation of the west and the west must take responsibility in carbon trading. When they take responsibility, we want them to transfer technological knowledge and critical mitigation programmes to us. For them to give us critical mitigation programmes, we would like all stakeholders, including this Ministry, to be very keen and very careful in addressing issues of carbon trading because every Government now is heading to Copenhagen where people will negotiate and see how they will be trading on carbon. We, as the African Continent, should be very careful and alert because we have not contributed to the messes that this world is facing today. I would like to conclude by saying that we need to support this Ministry by giving them money so that they can positively address issues of renewable energy. I come from a region where there is plenty of wind. Please, come and harvest that wind so that you can give an alternative source of energy to this country. I beg to support."
