    "content": "It has been a long journey. This journey started in 2007 and I am happy that, at least, we are seeing light at the end of the tunnel. Climate change is the biggest challenge the globe is facing today. Unless mankind addresses the issue of climate change, the survival of this planet is at stake. I want to let this House know that Kenya now becomes among the first countries in the world to enact a climate change law, assuming that the President is going to assent to this law. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I can assure you when the entire world meets in Paris in September, Kenya will rise and it will be viewed as a country that is moving ahead. This is because even developed countries have not been able to put up climate change law. So we are among the first countries in the world to do that. Having said that, I want to thank all the people who have been involved in this process. First, I want to thank our able Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources under the leadership of our chairperson. This Committee, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, has done a great job."
