With LPG in short supply, people switch to firewood - 03/25/2026

A person carries a heavy load of firewood from the forest to the locality in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, to cook at home, on March 25, 2026. The demand for firewood has sharply increased in many rural and semi-urban areas of India in recent weeks due to disruptions in the supply of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) caused by conflicts impacting key shipping routes like the Strait of Hormuz, forcing households and businesses to revert to traditional cooking fuels. Many people are now storing firewood at home, and in villages located near forests, residents are gathering firewood from the surrounding woods.
