Environment Protection
Food and energy production are the most critical of Uganda’s many development challenges, growth in production is essential and the challenge for Uganda’s policy makers is to enhance production in food and energy with minimal environmental damage. The environment in Busia remains under serious threat from natural and man-made drivers of change including poverty, unsustainable use of resources, lack of enforcement, rapid population growth, urbanization, agricultural expansion and the impact of climate variability among others. All this is as a result of low interest in mainstreaming environment planning.
