3 billion people each day cook their meal on open fires. Trees, shrubs & undergrowth are used as fuel. This is hazardous to the environment releasing CO2 into the atmosphere, destroys habitats & leaves soils exposed to erosion. Enter Wonderbags!
- The General Public / Mankind
Climate change is making food production more difficult. Those on greatest need are most affected. By introducing conservation agriculture agriculture & permaculture principles food can be grown successfully & in a restorative way. It takes change!
- Children / Young People
Many girls in Africa are unable to access schooling as they are harvesting wood & water & spend hours preparing the daily meal over a smoky fire. This lack of opportunity leads to depression and the inhaled smoke leads to illness & premature death.
