[Stoves] News: Environment-friendly improved wood cookstoves

[Cookswell Jikos]

A very interesting read on time spent cooking and collecting firewood.

Shameful to read about the govt.'s ban on firewood collection forcing
people to go into the forests at more dangerous times of day. Hopefully if
anything this may promote more on farm/roadside forestry so that people
dont have to walk so far to get get wood.
