[Stoves] GACC Progress Report for 2016

[Paul Anderson]

Stovers,

I recommend that you go to this link and download the 2016 Progress 
Report of the GACC.   I believe it came out two months ago.  Some comments:
http://cleancookstoves.org/resources/reports/2016progress.html

1.  It is a good report and worth reading.

2.  I don't think the report was mentioned on this Stoves Listserv until 
just recently, when it caught my eye.   I recommend that the GACC and 
other organizations (ESMAP, Winrock, and many more) please be sure to 
send a note with links to this Listserv to be sure that we all see the 
reports, etc. as soon as they are released.  That is what HEDON does.

3.  From pages 6 and 7:
> Forthis report, stoves and fuels that meet Tier 2 for efficiency are 
> considered efficient and those that meet Tier 3 for indoor emissions 
> are consideredclean for health.
AND     (sorry, the cut and paste gives a poor format in this email)
> C Cumulatively, an estimated 82 million stoves and fuels, including 53 
> million clean and/or
> efficient, have been distributed since 2010. The data also indicate 
> that      proportions of clean and efficient stoves and fuels are 
> being             distributed each year —an encouraging trend that is 
> critical to achieving                                        the 
> Alliance’s objectives.

AND
  Figure 1 has a projection of reaching 250 million acceptable stoves by 
2020.  That might be possible if major programs like India's 50 MILLION 
LPG stoves by 2020 and China's major governmental support both kick in 
with massive amounts of money.

When we discuss the report, be sure to be clear about what is good, and 
not just pick on certain issues with which that you disagree.

Paul
