"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to appreciate the information from my brother. I want to further contribute and say that I have seen this because I have studied much on this issue of environment. For instance, Brazil has different environments. There is an institution that went to a very dry area and dug some holes all across and left. It rains in Wajir, Garissa and Mandera. Look at Mandera and this is something we do not recognise. When the distinguished Sen. Captain Ali Roba was the Governor of Mandera, he had an environmental exercise project where he, in fact, won a big award. Therefore, this thing is possible. In conclusion, it is not only public land. Let us plant trees in public land private lands. When we plant trees in our private lands, you improve that environment. I love the fact that the Senator is pushing county governments to make sure that they plant trees in public lands. Let us start by planting trees in our streets and in our urban centres. Nairobi is beautiful; it is called the green city in Africa. Nonetheless, we can plant trees here. Therefore, just change one last thing, this issue of keeping one week as a national tree week. Many people will spend money with choppers and everything than actually planting trees. Let us see whether we can work until 11.00 a.m. on Fridays, then from 11.01 a.m. to 5.00 p.m., go out there and plant trees. I support."
