[Stoves] Guardian article on cookstoves

[Samer Abdelnour]

Hi all,

An interesting article in the Guardian on humanitarian stove design.
Interestingly, the ISO test is implied to be able to resolve design
problems. The question that follows: can a standardized test lead to better
ground-up design? The article switches from a critique of design to a
blanket promotion of the ISO test. This seems to suggest that a good 'test'
will lead to good stoves and better humanitarian solutions - is this the
next stove mime?
