<div> Maybe the Adam retort is the right choice. But another option (that should/might give similar annual amounts of char at equal or lower costs) is a “fleet” of char-making stoves. You might have to organize the preparation of the fuel, maybe subsidize the stove a little, but you could impact the nearby local </div>
<div> </div>
<div> Gambian communities very positively in terms of improving income (lower cooking costs) and health </div>
<div> There are several models of this going on right now: at least Nat Mulcahy with World Stove, Art Donnelly of Sea Char, and Paul Olivier in Vietnam.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Are there others yet?</div>
