Fair climate action starts with clean cooking
30% of the world’s population cooks over an open fire. This is not only a serious health risk but also a big source of global CO₂ emissions. At the same time, people in those same countries are affected by climate change.

Our solution
Start with Fair climate action: reduce carbon emissions within your organization and create climate and social impact beyond it with carbon credits from clean cooking projects. Here’s how it works:
Traditional cooking methods
Cleaner cooking methods
Fair carbon credits
Open fires or inefficient charcoal stoves consume large amounts of wood or charcoal. Indoor burning is not only unhealthy, but gathering firewood also puts pressure on forests.
Cleaner cooking methods use less or no wood, reducing smoke and CO₂ emissions during combustion. This improves the health of women, who are often responsible for cooking.
Carbon credits are our tool to finance these projects. The CO₂ emissions that are avoided are converted into carbon credits based on Fairtrade principles.

This is where we work
Together, we make an impact in areas that are vulnerable to climate change.
They are already making an impact
Secrid invests in carbon credits retroactively, starting from its start in 2009. Secrid hopes that as many companies as possible will follow their lead, so that they can work together to create a better world.
We believe it is important that projects also consider the local population and their interests. That is why we choose FairClimateFund.
With the money we pay for carbon credits from FairClimateFund, we can contribute to improving the living conditions of those most vulnerable to climate change. Both socially and economically.
