Provide A Rocket Cook Stove Manufacturing Startup Kit For A Family In Need!

"WHY BUILD ROCKET STOVES?"

3 billion people’s health is at risk due to how they cook their food using inefficient cooking systems. Smoke inhalation from burning wood or charcoal over an open pit leads to 1.9 million premature deaths a year, mostly among women and children who are often home all day. A movement is underfoot to replace those open fires with high-tech but low cost biomass rocket cook stoves that promise to revolutionize rural health care, significantly reduce deforestation and even curb global warming. Rocket stove provide a clean burn of biomass and can lower the harmful gasses produced by wood fires by up to 95%.

Wood for cooking is largely considered the main cause of deforestation in developing countries. Depending on the design, rocket stoves can save 50% to 80% of the wood used for cooking. When using rocket stoves there is no need to turn wood into charcoal first as they use raw wood efficiently. (Turning wood into charcoal can waste up to 75% of its heating energy)

Combining a properly designed pot skirt with a rocket stove can save another 10% to 30% of the woods heating energy. So if you use wood with a rocket stove and a pot skirt one could see a savings in fuel use of up to 80% to 95%. 

In developing countries cooking fuel can account for the majority of a families monthly living costs. Reducing this cost by up to 95% can provide the family with the funds needed to improve their diet, improve sanitation & provide funds for sending their children to school.
