Crispin's "reciprocity" statement below refers to statement i this video by Art Donnelly (of Seachar) - about giving back to the earth. I agree with Crispin and think this could be a powerful marketjng message for char-making stoves - with a new psychology offered for not further combusting ..<br>the char.<br><br>2. There is a similar video with Art at http://www.solcolibri.com/work.html<br><br>3. Speaking of marketing, I went to a climate meeting a few days ago and heard of a successful Park City Utah climate-marketing campaign called S.O.S - (... --- ...) that meant "Save Our Snow). It made me think of course of SOS = "Save Our Soil". Now we need a way to tie the "save" more into a "reciprocity" frame.<br><br>4. Thanks again to Art - who is really doing a nice job, with IBI support, in Costa Rica. I had not realized how extensice his work is there The extensive use of Spanish in these videos can be very helpful in convincing certain un-named parties that char-making stove really can save forests and help the poor. (and are super clean).<br><br>Ron<br><br>----- Original Message -----<br>From: "Crispin Pemberton-Pigott" <crispinpigott@gmail.com><br>To: "Discussion of biomass cooking stoves" <stoves@lists.bioenergylists.org><br>Sent: Saturday, December 18, 2010 7:26:49 PM<br>Subject: Re: [Stoves] Art's stove project in Costa Rica<br><br>Thanks Tom<br><br>I was struck by the easy relationship that can be created by the concept of<br>reciprocity.
