the very starting up, Mss. Clinton launched the GACC program as cheap clean
burning 100 M stoves program, realized with marked economy and the Coca Cola
business as a model. In practical that would be centralized activity. Type of
fuel was not mentioned at all. WB and MF are just interested in min 10-15 %
profit at the activities they support. That’s why GACC need others advisers as
well: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>From the stovers through
ETHOS they will get everything about clean cooking stoves, from RS they will get
everything about fuel and briquettes, from Crispin everything about emission,
from Ron everything about biochar and from the whole group at the stove list,
tyey will get: how to run decentralized stove projects; stoves, fuel and the
cook in one unit in order to create clean cooking and income generating
activities for the low income population, by utilize local resources manpower
and local available energy resources. </font></span></p>
