Clean Cookstove Project in Kenya

[@victoryfirst2878]

I just love the people in this video. They are so rhythmical and happy. Job well done.

[@carpenterfamily6198]

I have a modern kitchen and stove in my US home, but it is the happiness of these people that I envy. ❤️🙏

[@thomasjefferson1457]

A stove similar to this could be fashioned out of clay in a permanent location for many people to use. This is a step forward but there are other steps that could be taken also, The principle idea of the "rocket stove" is efficiency and once you understand that you can make it out of clay.

[@lifeloser100]

positive people ,happy people.

[@steverousseau2025]

OMG simple things like that can help change people's lives

[@komikgitar2062]

I'm 45yr now...the last time ive seen this kind of stove in front of my eyes was when..i cannot remember..7 or 8 yr old.

[@j.mehnmontokpa7154]

In Liberia the fetching of firewood varies among tribes. In some tribes only women fetch woods, in other both men and women while among some it is the duty of men to provide firewood.

[@rohinifernando4598]

very good program

[@hj2030]

Que facil es aser lo mismo de una estufa de barro solo algunas personas tienen' mas imaginaciones.Muchas Gracias.👍

[@maryambrahim82]

the end was good :)

[@Kenkalsi]

wow; appears everybody speaks english. hope lot of it jobs will be started specially call centres.

[@michelleongoro5495]

Where can I buy one from

[@Ramiz422]

Although it's not uncommon for me but it's amazing to see even the poorest people from british colonies can speak very good English. There's a saying in india that Britishes have gone but they left english 😄

[@ExitTwo888]

They stole indian things worth more than 900 billions dollars.

[@Cindy_kit_1245]

nice we should learn from this

[@YOUTUBER-jf6iq]

Carbon credits?

[@benjaminpascua8684]

What the men do in Kenya

[@steinderbush]

Its a very nice project to help people and environment. In this country the sun allways shines, wouldn,t it be better to invest in sunpanles!?? Sunpanels on a right space in the village to generate electricity, where every household could profit from and cook electric!!???

[@irenedavo3768]

steinderbush who will buy Solar panels?

[@Frantic618]

Solar panels are relatively expensive, and so are the other parts that they require. And then they would need the equipment that the electricity will run. All of this is far out of reach of people who have difficulty buying food.

[@freedomcontrolled6190]

Cook electric from solar pmsl the equipment alone would cost more than a hospital unless you just don't want to improve there lives then do what western governments do to them and put up a few solar panels and try not to laugh as you say here you have electricity.

[@user-xz4all]

Solar panels are not for cooking. But stainless steel solar concentrators are a good solution for Africa.

BioLite Kenya, A $150 dollar rig including three lights battery radio BioLite HomeSolar620.

[@johnburman966]

It amuses me how everyone gets a warm fuzzy feeling about this. Would these NGO's get the same feeling helping the poor in Michigan or other sacrifice zones in their own country.

[@you2449]

somebody behind those NGO's is making *millions* off this. It's all about kickbacks. .

[@imraxtrader]

How can i get this product i am in somalia

[@lalitchavan2094]

we need this projec in rular india

[@bilalsidik9007]

Kenyan women are very friendly

[@maximus78028]

Nice, but they still need wood right! What about solar or even coal, yea I said coal. However solar seems like a long term solution. 2) glad there is a reforest plan, but they may want to up that part dramatically since it takes years if not lifetime to get a mature tree. 3) at the end of it at least someone is trying to fix a problem.

[@dustystahn3855]

There are trees that grow fast and can be coppiced in five years and every five after that and produce more wood each time. The tree shown might be one of them.

[@lnwolf41]

The stove is fairly cheap to make, to get the high reflective panels and set up a frame to track the sun has a much higher price, beyond most of those people's means.

[@attilarivera]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@devdathmdsouza]

a new model like "asthra" stoves or rocket stove with exhaust pipe would be far more effective & healthy for Kenyans

[@davidmarley80]

a tip : you can watch series on Flixzone. I've been using it for watching loads of movies lately.

[@adenjason1846]

@David Marley Yup, have been using flixzone for since november myself :)

[@acuzamendoza]

Lastima la distancia entre la Guajira- Colombia y Nairobi-Kenya o kenia, peeo tienen en comun un territorio parecido aca no hay tanta ayuda y nuestros Indigenas de la Etnia Watuu mueren cada día los niños mueren por doquier, por falta de seguridad alimentaria y acceso a agua, casi no hay leña para cocinar, lastima que NO CONTEMOS CON ESE TIPO DE PROGRAMA, cuando bienen, SOS

[@dustystahn3855]

Since my previous comment I did a lot of research. The stoves are sold for 300 shillings and carbon rights. Carbon rights are ownership to 1 ton of sequestered carbon aka as 1 carbon credit. They are sold to companies that pollute the atmosphere with greenhouse gasses. The polluting company can then legally dump another ton of greenhouse gas into the atmosphere for every carbon credit they buy. The net reduction in carbon dioxide in the air is zero. The companies that fund Livelihoods belong to the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) which is plagued with problems and corruption. Livelihoods is a carbon investment fund and that is how they invest in carbon. 3.4,000,000 euros are invested (not donated) a handsome return is expected. That works out to 7,100 shillings per stove to break even. That is a mighty fine profit plus what they what they will make on the carbon credit sales and a mighty fine scam. Some things did not seem right to me and raised red flags. The stoves are rocket stoves and can be made by the people with local clay at the cost of few hours labour and no cash and are made in many places. The home built stoves will be as healthy and won't use any more wood than the Livelihood stoves do. 300 shillings and their carbon rights seemed like a high price to pay for the stove. 60,000 stoves in only three districts, why not other districts as well? Is it because they were in the only natural forest left in Kenya? A forest can sequester a lot of carbon year after year for centuries. The video presents them as benefactors to hide the fact they are rip off artists.

[@you2449]

BINGO !!

[@ngrobert5054]

Pls decrease fire 🔥 wood

[@qwertqwert1362]

👍👍👍👍🤹‍♂️🤹‍♀️

[@heaven9536]

as you cut down the tree replant new tree's.

[@bilalsidik9007]

Heaven they don't really cut down trees, that's exaggerated. They cut down a few branches

[@diamondintheroughiamthelaw9682]

Nice to see men help. 😥😬

[@ماجدعايف]

😢😢

[@tracyskitchenandappalachia2954]

plant 10 for every tree choped

[@you2449]

duh! you cannt plant a Stove !!

No engineering ,even in 2018?

[@harveysmith100]

[@Oc4ever12]

Exactly! The men should carry the fire wood... and not let the women have to do all that hard labor!!!

as much poop as the have teach them how to make a methane digestor and produce gass and not need wood

[@louisenorris8428]

American women are too preppy and snooty for this kind of work Well themajority of them are I've done work this hard and looking pretty has never been important Surviving has and is🙏😀

[@dustystahn3855]

Why don't you teach them to make the stoves themselves? They are simple to make and the metal is not required. Is your motive to make them dependent on you rather than self-reliant because that is what you are doing. If you give a person a fish you feed him for a day. If you teach him how to fish you have fed him for life. Who is financing this project?

[@skpchick318]

Watch the video again and pay attention this time. Your answers are there.

[@markwenz5458]

Ummmm....how about cooking outdoors, away from the house? Maybe it's just me, but hasn't any one of the people who live there figured anything else to do waaaaay before now? WTF? FFS!

[@Oc4ever12]

Look how old some of them are...they'll probably outlive you, so SHUT UP!!!
