Because 3 billion people cook over smoky, sooty fires every day, BioLite is going to…
From now through December 11th BioLite is going to donate every dollar they make toward putting clean cookstoves into 50,000 homes in India and Sub-Saharan Africa in 2016 with their GET SOOT DONE campaign.
Every dollar.
Why?
Because soot is bad. Like, really bad.Â
- Soot is the second leading cause of climate change behind CO2.
- 3 billion people cook over smoky, sooty fires annually, causing 4 million deaths per year.
- These fires produce more soot per year than all automobiles combined.
The BioLite clean cookstoves produce 90% less soot than a traditional fire, which is a pretty big deal.
If you’ve been interested in a BioLite stove, pull the trigger before December 11th. You’ll help clean up a very dirty and serious problem. To us, that sounds like a great way to end your year.Â
