Lake Victoria Experts Call for Local Greenhouse Emissions Data
Policymakers and scientists in Kenya and Uganda have expressed the need for regional-specific measurements of greenhouse gas emissions to increase accuracy and certainty around climate change mitigation. The call was made during a consultative workshop for policymakers from ministries of environment and natural resources in Kenya and Uganda with scientists from CGIAR’s research program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) and the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI). The workshop was held at the Kenya-headquartered ILRI early this month (2-3 May).
