A Smokeless Stove
2 years ago
A short film depicting a Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies stove project in Kisumu, Kenya. Though stove projects are quite common this one differs in combining a number of aspects, the stove is both energy efficient, has a chimney leading out harmful smoke and can be locally manufactured. It may thus hit three targets; 1), halving fuel consumption hampers deforestation which is a major problem in the area; 2), respiratory disease is a severe health issue in Kenya (and world wide), the chimney reduces in-door pollution to a minimum; and 3), by utilizing the local community, from entrepreneurs to craftsmen, in the entire process the production and spreading of the stove generates business boosting local economy.
