At the heart of our project lies Shea Butter – often called Women's Gold for its rich, nourishing qualities and the vital role it plays in the lives of many women. 🌍💛

But there's a hidden cost: the process of producing Shea Butter relies heavily on the use of firewood, contributing to deforestation and environmental strain.

That's why we're working on implementing clean cookstoves that reduce wood consumption, protect trees, and empower women in the process. 🌳

What’s the connection between clean cooking and healthy crops? 🤷‍♀️

Households that use biogas for cooking gain access to an incredible natural fertilizer: bioslurry! 🌾

🐮 This byproduct of the digestion process allows families to use their own fertilizer to boost crop yields and enhance sustainability.

Did you know that about 8 kilos of wood is needed to produce 1 kilo of charcoal? 😮

Transitioning from charcoal to pellets has many benefits for health & the climate!

Pellets are produced much more efficiently; about 1.5 kilos of sawdust can be used to make 1 kilo of pellets. They are the affordable alternative that can make a difference.

Cooking on biogas can have a big impact on women in India.

By using biogas instead of traditional stoves and firewood, women can save time ⏰ and free up hours in their day. This can allow them to pursue education 📚 or participate in meaningful community activities 🌍

Many urban Rwandan households use charcoal for cooking, although it is harmful to health and also expensive. 🙁

In the project in Rwanda households switch to pellets: 1 kilo of pellets can be made from approximately 1.5 kilos of sawdust.

Cooking with pellets is: cleaner, faster and cheaper than with charcoal! 💨

Have you already booked your summer vacation? As you plan your getaway, it is important to consider the environmental impact of your travel choices. 
 
The distance you travel can significantly affect your CO2 emissions. If your plans involve flying to a distant location, take the time to calculate your CO2 flight emissions using our CO2 calculator. You then invest in fair climate projects that reduce CO2 emissions elsewhere and contribute to better living conditions for people who are most vulnerable to the consequences of climate change. This way you contribute to reducing your ecological footprint.  
 
For next year, consider exploring alternatives such as train travel = 4.5 times less emissions.
