The COP is much more a political process than a technical process. The high level segment which mainly consists of ministers and various highly ranked government personnel is where all major decisions are made.
Meet Hon. Wilbur Ottichilo the founder of Parliamentary Network on Renewable Energy and Climate Change (PANARECC). The Parliamentarian has been addressing environmental concerns for over twenty years and continues to be at the forefront in addressing climate change issues both at the national (Kenya) and international level. He believes that politicians have an important role to play. Not only are they are entrusted with enacting progressive legislation at national levels, they are extensively involved in the international climate change negotiations. It is for this reason he advocates for their capacity building in a bid to ensure that our environment is protected for posterity.
