The Social Impact

PROBLEM TO ADDRESS

The 2016-2030 Sustainable Development Goals (“SDGs”) set out the world’s ambition to provide water and energy for all by 2030. However the task is massive:

• 2.4 billion people use traditional cook stoves emitting excessive carbon and smoke pollution and damaging health
  and livelihoods
• 1 billion people live without electric light either in darkness or by burning kerosene at health and financial cost; and
• 1 billion people live without access to clean water.

 PROGRAMME  TARGETS BY 2029

1.3 million people will have sustainable access to cooking energy and (SDG No.7) and sustainable access to clean water (SDG No. 6)

1.3 million people will have significantly reduced exposure to air and water pollution. Respiratory illnesses caused by smoke pollution will be greatly reduced as will water borne diseases caused by dirty drinking water (SDG No.3)
