<p>Thanks, Derick...</p>
<p> This is Jay's proposal, however I did get a positive response
from the Director for the "Center for e - Learning" at the <b>Kerala
Agricultural University</b> (India), Dr. A.K. Sherief (CC'd), so
it may be possible to do something. [?]</p>
<p> Note: Dr. Sherief had been looking to collaborate with
Universities outside of India in <b>Tropical agriculture studies</b>.</p>
<p><br>

<p>P.S. Members of the [Biochar Stoves] and the [Stoves] Lists
(CC'd) might, however, be interested in the results of this new
study as well:</p>

child burns</font></h1>
<p>Initial results from the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine
(LSTM)-led Cooking and Pneumonia Study (CAPS) in Malawi indicate
that cooking with cleaner burning biomass-fuelled cookstoves
reduced the risk of burns in children under the age of five by
over 40% compared to traditional open fire cooking.<br>
<br>
The two year study was the largest of its kind anywhere in the
world, with more than 10,000 children enrolled across randomised
villages in Chikhwawa and Chilumba in Malawi. Half of the families
involved were given two cleaner burning cookstoves to see if the
new stoves, which can reduce emissions by up to 90%, would stop
the children getting pneumonia, a major cause of death in this
group. The study found that while the cookstoves were well liked,
required less fuel and were quicker to cook over, there was no
effect on the risk of pneumonia.</p>
<p>... The results of our study suggest that by themselves, cleaner
burning biomass-fuelled cookstoves are not sufficient to reduce
the risk of pneumonia in the under 5s. They do, however, appear to
be <b>substantially safer</b> by <u>reducing the risk of burns
in young children</u>. <br>
