Even though Kenya contributes less than 0.1 per cent of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, it has policies and measures to pursue a low-carbon and resilient development pathway to realise its Vision 2030 to transform the country into a newly industrialising, middle-income economy.
Kenya’s economy is largely dependent on tourism and agriculture, both susceptible to climate change and extreme weather conditions. Increasing heat and drought contribute to severe crop and livestock losses, leading to famine and other threats to human health and well-being.
