The Environmental Crisis
Uganda loses 200,000 hectares of forest annually, largely due to charcoal production. LPG offers a sustainable alternative that can help preserve our environment.
Carbon Footprint Comparison
| Energy Source | CO2 per year (kg) | Trees Equivalent |
|---|---|---|
| Charcoal | 2,400 | 35 trees cut |
| LPG Gas | 800 | 0 trees cut |
Air Quality Impact
Indoor air pollution from charcoal cooking causes:
- Respiratory diseases in children
- Heart disease risks for adults
- Reduced life expectancy
- Poor indoor air quality
LPG produces:
- 95% fewer indoor pollutants
- No particulate matter emissions
- Clean burning with no smoke
- Better indoor air quality
Deforestation Impact
Each family using LPG instead of charcoal:
- Saves 35 trees annually
- Reduces soil erosion
- Preserves biodiversity
- Maintains water catchment areas
National Impact Potential
If 50% of Ugandan households switched to LPG:
- Save 2 million trees annually
- Reduce CO2 emissions by 40%
- Improve air quality nationwide
- Support sustainable development goals
