A holiday shopper around Addisu Gebeya lugs a bundle of freshly cut grass for holiday decorations across piles of firewood. Despite lush holiday decorations and a national focus on reforestation, Ethiopia faces a persistent challenge: indoor air pollution. With over 90pc of households relying on wood for cooking, particularly in the south where the figure nears 97pc, smoke from traditional stoves pollutes the air within homes. Limited access to affordable and reliable alternative energy sources leaves many rural families with no other option. This dependence on wood fuel, even with national forestation efforts, contributes to public health concerns.
