United Nations sustainable development Goal No.3. (SDG3) – Good Health and wellbeing. “Cooking shouldn’t kill”
At Timgreen Energy Solutions Ltd, our innovations in cooking solutions are targeted to curb deforestation in search for biomass cooking fuel. Therefore restoring and conserving our forest cover and bio-diversity
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere also contributes significantly towards combating Global warming.
Cooking with untreated solid fuels like firewood, charcoal and agricultural residues contributes a significant portion of greenhouse gas emissions, with estimates suggesting that it produces about 1.3 gigatons of carbon dioxide per year.
Solid fuel cooking is responsible for generating more than a half of human generated black carbon emissions which have a climate warming capacity 1,500 times greater than carbon.
SDG13 – Climate Action (This is directly linked to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal No.13 and 15 (SDG 13 AND SDG 15) SDF15 – Life on Earth
