Madam Temporary Speaker, this Bill that has been brought to this House is very important. Climate change has been universally recognised as one of the greatest global challenges that the world is facing today.

Madam Temporary Speaker, as you are aware, Kenya has ratified several international conventions including the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change that was adopted in 1994 and the Kyoto Protocol in 2005.
