Carbon for Water
At dawn, nine-year-old Anzelma walks for miles in search of firewood, a valuable commodity, used to boil water to make it safe. One program is attempting to change this by providing 900,000 water filters to the people of Kenya’s Western Province, for free. If successful, it will cut carbon dioxide emissions by 2 million tons per year for a decade or more. It just requires changing the habits of 4.5 million people first.
