The Toyola Clean Cookstoves project aims to reduce the use of traditional wood-burning stoves in households in Nigeria by introducing more efficient and cleaner cookstoves. These new cookstoves are designed to use less wood and produce fewer harmful emissions, reducing both the environmental impact and health risks to the population.
The main aim of the project is to help reduce CO₂ emissions and air pollution by offering a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional cooking practices. In addition, the introduction of these cleaner cookstoves should improve the health of the population by reducing exposure to smoke and air pollutants.
The fullfiled Sustainable Development Goals
In addition to reducing CO2 emissions, the climate protection projects generate a variety of additional benefits for people and the environment. This enables and strengthens our commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
It aims to end poverty in all its forms worldwide. It calls for ensuring that all people have access to the basics of a decent life and emphasizes the link between poverty risks and environmental conditions. Measures such as adaptation to climate change and equitable access to resources are intended to support poor population groups in particular.
The goal is access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy for all. It aims to increase the share of renewable energies and double energy efficiency, particularly in developing countries. The expansion of renewable energies and the adaptation of infrastructure are key to minimizing environmental pollution and achieving climate targets.
The aim is to take immediate action against climate change and its effects. It aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote climate adaptation measures and raise awareness of climate impacts. Particular emphasis is placed on international cooperation to support poorer countries in combating climate change and strengthening climate resilience.
