Ron and all,<br>
<br>
Wow!!! And I missed it. Blame myself for not reading the GACC
website with regualrity. Blame the GACC for thinking that they do
not need to announce via the other orgainizations that are also
communicating about cookstoves. Winrock and the biochar
organizations have done so much better at informing about what is
going on, and about announced webinars. Maybe the GACC will
change now that it has new leadership. <br>
<br>
Do they raad the Stoves Listserv? Even when the Subject line
says GACC weibinar ??? Will GACC reply to this message???<br>
<br>
By the way, the repoet you cited starts by saying:
<blockquote type="cite">"[Efficient and clean cookstove] market
penetration remains low, and adoption and consistent use remains a
challenge. User experience and cost, both of which must overcome
entrenched preferences for traditional cooking methods, continue
to limit consumer demand and loyalty.</blockquote>
That clearly indicates that the GACC (and authors of that report)
are not aware of the major success in West Bengal with the Champion
TLUD stove. Penetration about 60%, users continue to use (initial
ones are now at 5 years of usage), cost is manageble, certainly has
overcome "entrenched preferences", and the demand is HIGH, far
exceeding the ability to provide the $40 stoves for which the $40 is
recovered in a few years. Read the case study on Deganga
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.drtlud.com/deganga2016">www.drtlud.com/deganga2016</a> about 11,000 TLUD stoves, that has now
grown to about 40,000. No interest shown YET by GACC or other
organizations. I am working on options for scale up and greater
awareness. <br>

Pleae help me (us) find out when a recording of the webinar becomes
available. <br>
