Climate change: Group preaches clean cooking

To reduce the impact of global warming, City Ministries has taken the gospel of clean cooking to Bauchi State to save the country’s forests. 
  
Administrator of City Ministries of Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), Joel Haruna, said climate change has a devastating effect on both humans and animals, calling for regulation of the number of trees felled for fuel.
  
Haruna urged locals to embrace an improved cooking stove, which uses less firewood and charcoal.
  
“The improved cooking stove has been designed to work on a little charcoal, which will end up limiting the number of trees to be felled,” he added .
  
Haruna also said the organisation had been enlightening the communities on safe drinking water and afforestation.
  
“We have dug over 200 wells, and when we do this, our team ensures that the water is tested and certified safe for drinking before we can deliver it. 
  
“We have been engaging in vaccination of livestock and other development works in our communities,” he said.
