I had a chat with Amina regarding the sustainable cooking stove her company has been making available for women in the villages in Malawi and other selected Sub-Saharan African countries. It's truly a humbling experience! Take a listen

As we rethink our energy use, we focus on the highest polluters, and at a global scale. But energy use at a much finer scale seriously threatens the health and safety of hundreds of millions of people who still cook on inefficient wood stoves in developing countries. Berkeley professor Ashok Gadgil and his students launched the Berkeley Darfur Stove project to design and build efficient and inexpensive stoves. They then created a non-profit to manufacture the $20 stoves in Mumbai. The stoves’ efficiency halves the fuel wood to cook each meal, and the time needed to collect it. Women purchasing fuel wood saved about $260 per year. Series: "Cal Future Forum: Our Changing World" [Science] [Show ID: 33083]

Cooking is an everyday activity that most people engage in. In places where you don't have gas, charcoal is often used to fire up a stove. Whilst people have been doing this for years, it is not very environmentally friendly, and it generates smoke in often confined areas of a home. Green Bioenergy is a social enterprise all about creating a clean cooking environment. Their two products are an improved cooking stove and smokeless charcoal briquettes. Ziwa and I discuss how they sell briquettes through rural agents, how they keep the complete supply chain produced in Uganda, and the prospects for taking this approach internationally. We conducted the interview in the garden of the Green Bioenergy office/ house and so there might be the odd bird tweeting in the background. Either way, I hope this doesn't distract you from the interesting chat that we have.

In the developing world, widely used cooking technologies (especially biomass) pose mounting health risks, high expense, and environmental damage. This lecture considers alternative fuels and stove designs, with a focus on the D-Lab charcoal project.

For millions of refugees in makeshift camps in the Darfur region of western Sudan, collecting firewood for their cooking stoves is difficult, dangerous, and the stoves produces a great deal of carbon dioxide. After visiting the region, researchers at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with students at the University of California, Berkeley and volunteers from Engineers Without Borders developed the “Berkeley-Darfur Stove”, a stove four times more fuel efficient than the 3-stone fires traditionally used in Darfur.
