Every minute, 27 soccer fields of forest are erased from the earth due to #deforestation. In #Uganda, high levels of firewood usage means deforestation remains an important issue to tackle. That is what #GreenGloria does in this week's #TotoMagazine by @newvisionwire

[Embassy of Sweden in Kampala @SwedeninUG]

Today's #GreenGloria in @newvisionwire talks abt #CleanCooking technologies. Did you know 90% of Ugandans depend on the use of firewood/charcoal for cooking?
Through @UNCDFCleanStart, we have supported a total of 6 innovators in #CleanCooking technologies to grow their businesses
