Meet Hamda: using an improved cookstove makes a huge impact on her daily life 🌟 The smoke created from Hamda’s traditional cookstove was giving her severe headaches. After switching to a more efficient Jikokoa cookstove, her health problems improved significantly and it’s now a companion to her daily life. 🥘 Like Hamda and many other Somalians facing health difficulties, traditional cooking methods also put a strain on a third of the global population, according to the World Health Organization, in terms of relying on unsafe and environmentally harmful cooking practices. Improved cookstoves greatly reduce the amount of firewood used, which saves money, avoids carbon emissions, reduces deforestation, and improves the health of daily users. The cookstoves that Hamda and others are using from this social impact project are produced by BURN, the largest manufacturer in Africa for modern and improved cookstoves. #socialimpact #improvedcookstoves #climateaction #ClimatePartner Read more about this project: 👉 https://lnkd.in/eAg-23fn
