<div dir="ltr">Very interesting! Thanks for sharing. This bit below especially caught my interest. Can you elaborate more on how this system works? Any type of wood? wet/dry etc?

In return, they get stoves and pellets. These cashless customers only have to collect about half as much wood as they used to because the stove-pellet combination is so much more efficient than open fires, according to Reynolds.;; </span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(79,75,76);font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:18px"><br></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(79,75,76);font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:18px"><br></span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="color:rgb(79,75,76);font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:18px"><br></span></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><b><br></b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><b>Cookswell Jikos</b><br><a href="http://www.cookswell.co.ke" target="_blank">www.cookswell.co.ke</a></div><div><a href="http://www.facebook.com/CookswellJikos" target="_blank">www.facebook.com/CookswellJikos</a></div><div><a href="http://www.kenyacharcoal.blogspot.com" target="_blank">www.kenyacharcoal.blogspot.com</a></div><div>Mobile: +254 700 380 009 <br></div><div>Mobile: +254 700 905 913</div><div>P.O.
