The Slow Life Clean Cookstoves project distributes and maintains fuel-efficient cookstoves to rural villages across Myanmar. The modern design is safer and more fuel efficient than traditional cooking methods and drastically cut harmful indoor pollutants.
By significantly reducing the amount of wood consumed by households, this project reduces deforestation and slashes critical greenhouse gas emissions. With the clean burning cookstoves, families will no longer be exposed to dangers of open fires and fatal air pollution. The project additionally boosts the socioeconomic situation amongst these communities, reducing the financial pressure of healthcare and excess fuel, as well as creating employment opportunities through the installation and maintenance of the new cookstoves.
