- 1,420,000 people provided access to cookstoves
- 65,000 tons CO2 mitigated annually
- 300 jobs created
370,000 cookstoves currently in use
The need for firewood and fuel to burn is mitigated, eliminating subsequent CO2 emissions
Local forests are protected because of the reduced need for firewood
Creation of local jobs boosts the economy
Sanitary conditions are improved with reduced firewood/fuel burning
The project developer funds the creation and distribution of the cookstoves, hiring local community members
