Recently we spoke with Nicola Baggio, the CEO at OffgridSun, to discuss their improved cookstove project in the Morogoro region of Tanzania. Currently, more than 96% of the 60 million people in Tanzania rely on biomass for cooking. The related dependence on firewood accounts for 139/per 100,000 deaths and has contributed to 2.7M Ha of forest loss since 2000. This project pays and trains unemployed youth and women from the communities to distribute much-needed clean cooking equipment, with the aim of delivering +5,000 improved cookstoves across six villages.
