Speaking on the sidelines of a workshop on climate change policy, the county executive for water and environment, Gachanja Ngunyangi, said global warming is evident in the declining agricultural output and emergence of new pests and diseases.
“Climate change was first identified as a challenge at a summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, but not much has been done,” Mr Ngunyangi said. “But now it’s a reality since the effects of climate change cost Rio de Janeiro in 1992, but not much has been done,” Mr Ngunyangi Sh32 billion annually.”
