Iran war hurts conservation efforts
Posted on 2026-04-27 17:23:13
Energy shocks linked to the Iran war are pushing households across Africa and
South Asia back to charcoal and firewood as cleaner cooking methods become
more expensive and unreliable.

This reversal is worsening deforestation and adding to pressure on wildlife
habitats.

Governments had promoted cleaner fuels like LPG for health and conservation
reasons, but rising costs are undermining those gains.

Experts warn the ripple effects from disruptions to fuel supply chains are
also hitting conservation systems, with more wood cutting, higher risks of
poaching, and falling tourism revenue that helps fund parks and anti-poaching
efforts.
