      abstract = {This paper investigates the opportunities for reducing the  pressure of urban centers on rural forest areas, using a  dataset of 350 urban households in Tigrai in northern  Ethiopia. We applied an almost-ideal demand system to  fuels. The results suggest that reducing the pressure of  urban centers on local forests cannot be seen in isolation  from broader development policies aimed at raising the  level of education and income of the population. Higher  income also stimulates the demand for fuel.},
