Messages spread on social media rallied 41.34 million people around concrete ways to address the climate emergency as quickly as possible.
Saving and replanting Mozambique’s forest
Mozambique Renewables together, with partner Pamoja Moçambique, has developed a hybrid cooking stove that runs entirely on agri-residues to eliminate the use of wood and charcoal as cooking fuels. The projects will be funded through the creation of high-quality Carbon Credits that meet multiple UN SDG’s and include numerous additionalities and are verified by the Gold Standard. Furthermore, our Local communities no longer need to cut trees to provide fuel so we can start the process of re-establishing community forests that combine conservation with food production from agroforestry to ensure their long-term viability.
