Abstract:
Wood fuel, charcoal, and firewood comprise over 70 percent of the national energy consumption in Zambia, as only about 25 percent of the population has access to electricity. Replacing charcoal braziers with cookstoves using sawdust pellets can support sustainable energy provision in urban Zambia while reducing deforestation on the countryside. However, acceptability of pellet cookstoves remains low, while the demand for wood fuel is increasing. The study investigated the acceptability of pellet cookstoves, in view of governmental policies, in the Matero-George compound, Lusaka. Qualitative ap

Abstract:
The rapid growth of Lusaka, to a population of around 1 million by the early 1990s, has generated considerable pressure on hinterland resources. Amongst others, there is a high demand for wood as the majority of Lusaka's population rely on charcoal for their domestic energy. It is estimated in this study that at least 150 km2 of indigenous woodlands are currently cleared annually to meet this need. The bulk of this woodfuel production is unlicensed and uncontrolled but accurate data on its location and the resulting deforestation do not exist. Airborne remote sensing and ground data were used

Abstract:
<p>Water is a basic necessity for sustaining life and development of society. Proper management, protection and exploitation of water resources are the challenges imposed by population growth, increasing pressure on the water and land resources by competing usage. A good amount of clean water exists on Earth although it is normally inadequate in supply because of anthropogenic activities such as deforestation and land use change. Like many other catchments that provide economic activities for the community’s livelihood, the Chalimbana river catchment in Zambia has been deforested heavily and m

Abstract:
Between 1990 and 2010 sub-Saharan Africa experienced some of the highest levels of deforestation anywhere in the world. The problem has been particularly acute in what are known as the miombo woodlands of southern Africa. These occupy a unique ecological niche and are crucial to the livelihoods of millions of people in the region, yet are disappearing rapidly. The aim of this thesis is to identify the structural causes of this phenomenon in two of the miombo countries, Zambia and Mozambique. Standard ‘resource based’ explanations for deforestation in both countries tend to focus primarily on d

Abstract:
Globally, deforestation is threatening medicinal plant species. Concern about this process has led to renewed interest in medicinal plant research, in an effort to discover medicinal properties before species become extinct. However, little research has been done on the local social impacts of deforestation in regions where populations depend on medicinal plants for their primary health care. This study investigates the impact of deforestation on medicinal plant availability and use in the Bilili Game Man

Abstract:
This study analyses the possibility of introducing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as an alternative domestic energy source to charcoal in Zambia to mitigate climate change. The study, conducted in Lusaka, used questionnaires, focus group discussions, interviews and literature study to collect data. The study revealed that the introduction of LPG is possible. However, some challenges need to be addressed in order to actualise the change. Lack of knowledge about LPG; non-availability of LPG in most parts of the country; perceived danger of LPG; high prices of LPG and accessories; changing people‟
