Dr.  Reddy is a scientist who is "/committed to the environment, and who 
has designed //_more than 50_//low cost efficient good stoves/" in his 
career.


Note:
This book on Stoves** also covers the topic of *Biochar, 
/biocharculture/*, sustainable agriculture, safe water, habitats, and 
sanitation, etc.

** "Improved stoves can help with '/carbon sequestration/' when applied 
to the _soil_ to /*improve its fertility*/."

Excerpts:

    "Certain types of stoves, such as most of (the) *Top Lit Up Draft
    (TLUD) stoves*, allow for 'batch-loading' of fuel... After a batch
    of fuel is exhausted completely, charcoal / biochar gets 
    accumulated at the bottom of the combustion chamber."

    "Space permitting, the best option is converting the kitchen waste,
    biochar and ash into /*biochar compost*/. Using biochar compost
    reduces ['foul'] emissions from the kitchen waste..." ... "A place
    close to the kitchen should be used for this purpose."

    "Usually, children first engage with stoves when they assist parents
    in cooking. ... A stove is also a means to *educate* children about
    pollution (type of emissions), heat and thermodynamics, principles
    of combustion, health, economy, biochar and ash as byproducts,
    biomass conservation, biomass for energy, environment, greenhouse
    gases, global warming, climate change, etc."


Acknowledgements:

    "I am very much thankful to the stovers *Mr. Tom Miles*, BioEnergy
    and Biochar Lists, USA and *Mr. Crispin Pemberton-Pigott*,
    Swaziland, Southern Africa, for their encouragement and inspiration."
