Fri Nov 2 02:34:48 CDT 2018

*''It seems that the deaths allegedly caused have nearly DOUBLED since UNF
contracted for GACC.'' *Could you explain this a bit more?

Perhaps now that they are the Clean Cooking Alliance I hope they will
promote kitchen hygiene and a bit of hand washing as well. (

Meanwhile the local LPG cylinder roll out in Kenya is in hot water

the cost of kerosene and charcoal has hit everyone's respective type of
stoves hard this year

>> The Clean Cooking Alliance works with a global network of partners to
>> build an industry that makes clean cooking accessible to families around

>>
>>    -
>>
>>    Driving consumer demand for clean cookstoves and fuels by supporting
>>    behavior change and awareness raising interventions;
>>    -
>>
>>    Building a pipeline of investible businesses capable of answering
>>    this demand with affordable, high-quality, appropriate clean cooking
>>    products;
>>    -
>>
>>    Improving the policy environment by providing trusted, relevant data
>>    and advocating for regulations and policies that allow the industry to
>>    thrive, and;
>>    -
>>
>>    Increasing investment community participation and global engagement
>>    by providing market intelligence, delivering a clear path to action, and
>>    continuing to serve as the convener of the clean cooking sector.
>>
>> Since 2010, more than 115 million clean and efficient cookstoves and
>> fuels have been distributed and sold globally by Alliance partners. Based
>> on current sales and distribution trends and projections, the sector is on
>> pace to exceed the Alliance’s goal of 100 million households adopting clean
>> and efficient cookstoves and fuels by 2020.
>>
>> While this is a significant achievement, the 100x2020 goal was set eight

>> has its own Sustainable Development Goal (SDG7), which includes a specific

>> this goal, supporting achievement of universal access to clean cooking by
>> 2030.

>>
>> The Clean Cooking Alliance works with a global network of partners to
