Bovine leukosis infection (EBL) is a worldwide occurring disease of cattle caused by the bovine leukemia virus and is clinically characterised by the occurrence of multiple lympho-sarcomas in about 10% of the infected cattle. In Africa, the prevalence of Bovine leukosis infection has been reported in Namibia, Egypt, South Africa, Uganda and Tanzania. In Kenya, cases of bovine lympho-sarcomas have been reported but the incidence, prevalence and distribution of the disease in the country remain unknown.

This study dwelt on the role adoption of green concept plays in environmental management and implementation of sustainable development goals in Kenya. This was studied using the case of Nairobi County. The theoretical framework was based on the institutional and resource-based theory where the coercive push and resource benefits for society were expected to influence the adoption of the green concept.
