Description

Hassan Abdikadir Hussein and Abdimalik Ali Warsame study clean cooking and remittances in Somalia in 2026 and their links to environmental harm. Data ran from 1990 to 2022, tracking footprints, clean fuel access, and money sent home by workers abroad. Burst-detection tests flagged years when each series spiked. Time-varying causal checks and a flexible learning model followed.

Clean cooking access drove footprint changes in two spans, peaking near 2019 to 2020. Remittances also drove footprint shifts in two earlier spans. The learning model found both factors cut the footprint on net. Solar stoves, biogas, and better clay stoves earn policy backing from the results.
