Bella Genga’s article implies, by quoting a Standard Bank executive, that Ugandans will in future cook with gas instead of charcoal and firewood, and thereby stop deforestation (“Standard Bank defends benefits of Tanzania-Uganda natural gas pipeline”, September 25).

However, it gives no details of how this will be achieved. I hope I’m wrong, but have not heard of plans to supply Uganda’s households with gas. The article also implies that the gas pipeline is running from Tanzania to Uganda, not the other way around?
