India's SEWA is helping Gujarat's #saltfarmers replace their #diesel pumps with #solar power, facilitated by #greenskills training and a pioneering financing scheme – slashing #emissions, cutting costs and giving the #women control over their own futures.

#India is the world’s third largest #salt producer, 80% of which comes from inland salt flats in #Gujarat. The vast majority of the workforce here are informal salt farmers, but for decades they have received a pittance for their back-breaking labour.

For generations, families like Manguben Dhirubhai Jaga’s have toiled from dawn to dusk in the 45ºC heat and blinding sun of the Gujarati desert to produce the world’s #salt. And thanks to #climatechange, their lives are only getting tougher. But hope is at hand👇

Really chuffed that my story on Gujarat's desert salt farmers got a shout-out in the latest Qutting Carbon newsletter from @justingerdes.bsky.social‬. It's truly my go-to source to keep up to date on the #energytransition.

With support from trade union SEWA, thousands of informal salt farmers in Gujarat, India, are swapping diesel pumps for solar power – cutting emissions and raising incomes. Vivid reporting - and wonderful photos - from my friend @olliegordon.bsky.social: www.just-stories.org/stories/agen... 🔌💡

In the salt flats of Gujarat, a green revolution is underway. Thousands of informal salt farmers are swapping diesel pumps for solar power – cutting emissions, raising incomes and proving the path to net zero can bring transformation.

The Tony Blair Institute has now issued a statement (pic) saying the UK govt is "already pursuing" the solutions it highlights – CCS, new nuclear, etc – and that "we support the govt's 2050 net-zero targets"

The wildly inaccurate media coverage will now be corrected, right?
