"content": "of Kisii have given a Chinese company the right to cut trees within Kisii unabated. They do neither replant nor ask anybody. You just see lorries which are picking trees and you are told that they are going to China. I believe that this Bill will stop such activity and make county governments responsible. I believe that this will make our country become a green country. I hope that we will adopt green technology in all our spheres. At some point, we are going to have to relook at our behaviours. Why is it that we are cutting trees when it is easier for us to use the sun so that we can solarize our schools, Parliament and all big institutions in our Republic? There is research that has been done by the World Bank that shows that if we solarize even just 30 per cent of our institutions, the Kenyan Government will end up saving something like Kshs50 billion. I believe that is the direction to go. I thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir for bringing this Bill. We will support it. I am sure that many of our colleagues are seized of this matter. I support."
