Afande @mkainerugaba I want to pull my mustache to be like yours. Should I inbox you for guidance? Meanwhile, I argue the youths to involve themselves in planting trees to reduce the impact of climate change.

Investing in renewable energy creates three times more jobs than fossil fuels.

@IEA estimates that by 2030, 5 million fossil fuel jobs may be lost, but 14 million new jobs in clean energy could emerge, leading to a net gain of 9 million jobs.

@RajeoUganda E.D and @YCCUganda Regional Coordinator for western Uganda @MathiasClimate (Mathias Mwesige) training youths in tree planting and growing in Rwenzori region

[Youth Climate Council Uganda @YCCUganda]

Environmental education is thriving in Rwenzori!

@RajeoUganda, our host organisation in the region, teamed up with @youthgogreen & St. Theresa Girls S.S to teach pupils about the vital role of trees.

Through hands-on activities, they gained skills to drive #sustainability.

@RajeoUganda, @YCCUganda, @youthgogreen and St. Theresa Girls S.S conducting Environmental Education in schools in Rwenzori. Pupils were taught the importance of trees, how to plant and grow trees in their communities.

A Clean Energy Revolution!

In #WesternUganda, @RajeoUganda is turning knowledge into action!

They're producing smokeless briquettes—a cleaner, affordable, and eco-friendly alternative to charcoal & firewood.

This cuts indoor air pollution, lowers costs & protects

[Youth Climate Council Uganda @YCCUganda]

Great work, @RajeoUganda and @MathiasClimate

[Mathias Mwesige @MathiasClimate]

After receiving training from @YCCUganda, @RajeoUganda is now producing briquettes to replace charcoal and firewood usage in western Uganda. Our briquettes are smokeless and less costly, these improving indoor air pollution and reducing home expenses

[National Renewable Energy Platform (NREP) 🇺🇬 @NREP_Uganda]

With over 80% of Uganda’s population still relying on biomass, as their source of energy for cooking, there’s been a rampant increase in deforestation rates.

Promoting the adoption of sustainable cooking practices such as electric cooking; will reduce the demand of firewood and charcoal and significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

[RAJEO Uganda @RajeoUganda]

Conservation at heart, transferring reptiles in surrounding areas back to @QENPuganda. Thanks to @MathiasClimate and @Chrismongly

[RAJEO Uganda @RajeoUganda]

Household air pollution is still a big problem to our mothers & children in rural areas in developing countries. This does not only affect their health but our environment too as they use very poor cooking methods that consume a lot of firewood @MathiasClimate @YCCUganda

[Mathias Mwesige @MathiasClimate]

In house air pollution will dramatically reduce to save our mothers and children

[RAJEO Uganda @RajeoUganda]

Finding an alternative to the cruel biomass. Our briquettes burn longer (between 7 - 9 hours of active burning) and produces no smoke, making them fit for our mothers and sisters

[RAJEO Uganda @RajeoUganda]

Women and children are the most affected humans in regard to climate change. More so, energy poverty is causing more harm in rural communities. Through @YCCUganda, @MathiasClimate and @RajeoUganda are fighting the negative effects of energy poverty in #rwenzori communities

All young people can play a role in the energy transition and waste management regardless of their skills, passion and background @RajeoUganda @GayoUganda
