    "content": "We need to adapt to climate change. So, adaption is important. We must find a way on how we are going to limit the use of fossil energy. I know that we, in Kenya, are celebrating now that we have discovered oil and coal, but these are the biggest fuels that emit carbon dioxide. So, we will have to find a way of using our oil and coal without emitting more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. There is already an international convention which makes sure that if you emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, you must pay for it. So, as we go ahead to exploit our oil and coal, we have to be aware that we shall have to pay for that pollution. So, we need to look for possible ways of minimizing the use of fossil energy by going to renewable energy. That is why, as a country, we will need to embrace the use of renewable energy. I am happy that this country is already doing that. We have a lot of capacity in geothermal of over 10,000 megawatts and we are doing very well. So, in that direction, we are doing very well. We need to increase our use of solar and wind energy."
