❗️Have you ever imagined cooking, baking and boiling water using rubbish? A Community Cooker provides an alternative heat energy to #charcoal, paraffin and #firewood by incinerating #rubbish 🔥 environmentally correctly, reducing the cutting down of #trees for #cookingfuel 🌳.
The global tree count has fallen by 46% since the beginning of human civilization❗️ One #Community#Cooker, operated for a year, saves a calorific equivalent of about 3000 mature #trees, which has a major impact to the #environment. As of 2019, 126,000 trees saved so far❗️ 💯
❗️Nairobi generates approximately 3,000 tonnes of rubbish daily, but only 900 tonnes reaches the overflowing city dumpsite. 🚯 One Community Cooker incinerates 🔥250kg of dry rubbish when operated for 12 hours a day. As of 2019, we have burnt 3,731,600 tonnes correctly♻️✔️.

#Unemployment occurs when a person is actively searching for employment and is unable to find work. The Community Cooker is designed to labor-intensive in order to tackle this issue 💼. We create employment during construction and for the managing and operating of the Cooker❗️
⚠️According to the World Health Organisation, cooking on open fires is responsible for over 4 million #deaths globally per year, which is more than #AIDS and Malaria combined❗️ The Community Cooker's open #kitchen allows for a #smokeless cooking environment.

Excellent work! However, the Dandora #dumpsite is overflowing but WE have found a solution to the #rubbish by #incinerating it in our COMMUNITY COOKERS at over 880-1200 °C, then the heat #energy is used to cook, bake and boil water! Wouldn't it be handy to have it in this area?!
THOUGH WE CANT CLEAN THE WHOLE OF NAIROBI RIVER WE ARE JUST DOING OUR BEST IN https://t.co/5yJDdb6whF THIS IS THE SECOND LOCATION WHERE WE PLACE THE RUBISH WHICH WE HAVE REMOVE FROM THE RIVER... A TRUCK WILL COME THEN IT WILL BE TAKEN TO THE DUMPING SITE AT DANDORA...
