Clean Cooking Alliance Launches Nature-based Solutions Report


Montag, 10 Oktober 2022 17:22 News from Ape Allies

Clean cooking is one of the most critical, cost-effective tools we have to reduce carbon emissions, improve public health, and conserve the environment—all at the same time. Yet, among investors and policymakers, it remains underfunded and undervalued as a nature-based climate solution. The Clean Cooking Alliance launches a call to action through their latest report: Accelerating clean cooking as a nature-based climate solution.

In order to meet climate and development goals, we must prioritise the protection and restoration of our ecosystems. Nature-based solutions are essential to addressing the triple planetary crisis of climate change, nature loss and pollution. While often overlooked, accelerating access to clean cooking is an immediate and effective nature-based climate solution.

The Clean Cooking Alliance have launched a new report: Accelerating clean cooking as a nature-based climate solution, which outlines exactly why we must ensure everyone in the world has access to clean cooking.

Some 2.4 billion people are without access to clean cooking, costing the world more than US$2.4 trillion in damage to the climate and contributing to 3.2 million deaths each year. The urgency cannot be overstated: we cannot protect our planet without changing the way billions of people cook. Yet, despite these unacceptable consequences, clean cooking remains underinvested.


Accelerating clean cooking as a nature-based climate solution is the first comprehensive look at the role clean cooking plays in the global fight against climate change, environmental degradation, and gender inequity.
