Own Project | This project distributes small solar panels that can be connected to energy efficient LED lights, each of which has a lifespan of five to 10 years. Reducing the carbon dioxideA greenhouse gas that is produced as a by-product of oil and gas production, burning fossil fuels and biomassBiomass is non-fossilized and organic biodegradable material that can be used as fuel or for industrial production. Most commonly, biomass refers to plant matter grown for use as Biofuels, but it also includes plant or animal matter used for production of fibres, chemicals or heat. Biomass may also include biodegradable wastes that can be burnt as fuel. , as well as from all animals, plants, and a number of other natural sources. Carbon dioxide is the principal anthropogenic greenhouse gas that affects the earth’s temperature. that is emitted from kerosene lamps by replacing them with non-polluting technology generates carbon offsets. These projects pay for Tanzanian families to have access to these products, which are shipped from China to Tanzania and then distributed. Families contribute to the cost of purchasing the panel and light sets and for poorer families this cost is significantly subsidised. This approach is fully endorsed by village leaders and our African partners.

Own Project | Energy Effiency- Project trials have shown fuel efficienct stoves to be a great success in Tanzania. Carbon offsets are generated by reducing the carbon dioxideA greenhouse gas that is produced as a by-product of oil and gas production, burning fossil fuels and biomassBiomass is non-fossilized and organic biodegradable material that can be used as fuel or for industrial production. Most commonly, biomass refers to plant matter grown for use as Biofuels, but it also includes plant or animal matter used for production of fibres, chemicals or heat. Biomass may also include biodegradable wastes that can be burnt as fuel. , as well as from all animals, plants, and a number of other natural sources. Carbon dioxide is the principal anthropogenic greenhouse gas that affects the earth’s temperature. emissions of stoves. This project provides Tanzanians with the training needed to build and maintain these stoves. Families gather locally-available sand and stones, are trained by our African partners in stove construction and build the stoves themselves.

[Q39]- Energy Efficiency- Reduced firewood usage decreases pressure on local forests, saves time spent collecting firewood, avoids carbon emissions and improves air quality. The stove design benefits health by minimising smoke, reduces cooking time and protects children from fires.

Own Project | ReforestationThe reestablishment of forest on land that was previously forested but converted to another use before 31.12.1989. - Much-needed reforestation projects generate carbon offsets by storing carbon in trees, and these offsets fund our partners to work with Tanzanian villages on improving their local environments. People are taught how to cultivate and care for trees in nurseries, and they are now waiting for them to grow on communal village land. On average villagers plant around 1,250 trees per hectare for the purposes of generating carbon offsets. The trees are protected by the village government in accordance with law and regulations.

[Q39]- Reforestation- The protected forests reduce environmental degradation. The project pays for families to grow extra trees, crops and plants for person use, which reduce time spent gathering firewood, provide shade for people and livestock, improve health and increase income.
