‘Means of survival': Tanzania's booming charcoal trade drives unchecked deforestation
Cleared forest on the edge of Ruhoi reserve in eastern Tanzania. Illegal loggers depend on the trade to live, hampering conservation efforts.
As rising gas prices drive demand for the polluting fuel, illegal loggers depend on the trade to live - even as the forest disappears around them.
arge swathes of Ruhoi forest reserve in eastern Tanzania now lay bare, the ground in some sections dry and scorched, covered with stumps and brittle and fallen trees. The forest is being cut down at an alarming rate to meet the growing demand for charcoal in the nearby city of Dar es Salaam.
As a result of high gas prices, about 90% of Tanzanian households now use charcoal or firewood to cook, which is fuelling rapid deforestation across the country.
Between 2015 and 2020, the country lost almost 470,000 hectares (1.16m acres) of forest a year, according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization. The situation mirrors what is happening across much of Africa, where wood collection and charcoal production account for nearly half of the continent's forest degradation.

As a result of high gas prices, about 90% of Tanzanian households now use charcoal or firewood to cook, which is fuelling rapid deforestation across the country.
Between 2015 and 2020, the country lost almost 470,000 hectares (1.16m acres) of forest a year, according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization. The situation mirrors what is happening across much of Africa, where wood collection and charcoal production account for nearly half of the continent's forest degradation.

‘Means of survival': Tanzania's booming charcoal trade drives unchecked deforestation
Cleared forest on the edge of Ruhoi reserve in eastern Tanzania. Illegal loggers depend on the trade to live, hampering conservation efforts.
As rising gas prices drive demand for the polluting fuel, illegal loggers depend on the trade to live - even as the forest disappears around them.
arge swathes of Ruhoi forest reserve in eastern Tanzania now lay bare, the ground in some sections dry and scorched, covered with stumps and brittle and fallen trees. The forest is being cut down at an alarming rate to meet the growing demand for charcoal in the nearby city of Dar es Salaam.
