Overview

With this article we want to map the climate hot-spots (definition still not clear) where firewood scarcity, socio economic (possibly climate) vulnerability and where reliance on solid fuels overlap.


Possible Datasets

Firewood scarcity

tbc

Socio economic vulnerability

Data from United Nations Committee for Development Policy Secretariat. Triennial review dataset 2000 - 2018.

Climate vulnerability

Reliance on solid fuels

  • World Development Indicators (WDI) (only data for 2016) Access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking (% of population) Data Map

Idea: Creating a map to show the most vulnerable areas

to be developed; different layers of color coded areas based on a classification in the following categories:

Country/region firewood scarcity socio economic vulnerability possibly climate vulnerability solid fuels Scoring
