Are you aware of the threats that some of your everyday actions pose to our environment?
Background:
Over 90% of Uganda’s
population
relies on
solid biomass fuels for cooking
–
primarily wood and charcoal – causing
severe deforestation. Furthermore, Northern Ugandans, who rely
heavily on subsistence farming for survival, sell firewood and
charcoal as additional income, exasperating the already dire
environmental situation. The daily household demands such as cooking
food on an open fire causes the average Ugandan to fall into a
routine that is both detrimental to the environment and quality of
life. As such, the lack of access to information on reforestation,
efficient fuel sources, efficient cooking methods and negative
environmental habits has resulted in a serious environmental concern
affecting the entire region. Forests have disappeared due to massive
cutting of trees and they give way to fields with no or very few
trees, degrading the environment and affecting the natural balance
necessary for natural sustainability.
Question:
Are you aware of the threats that some of your everyday actions (such as cutting a tree) pose to our environment?
