This report attempts to fill that gap
for two of the most important water-related issues facing
the effects of climate variability and the steady
degradation of the nation's water resources. The study
reported here concluded that the El Niño-La Niña episode
from 1997-2000 cost the country Ksh 290 billion (about 14
percent of GDP during that period). During El Niño-induced
floods, this cost primarily arises from destruction of
infrastructure such as roads, water supply infrastructure,
and pipe networks. The largest costs incurred during the La
Niña droughts (1998-2000) were from loss of industrial
production and other costs arising from reduced hydropower
generation, as well as from crop and livestock losses. These
costs are felt throughout Kenyan society. |
