The Tower Stove
This is an “appropriate technology” smokeless stove available to solve the deadly inhalation and deforestation issues affecting people around the world currently using wood fuel on open “three rock” type fires indoors. The mix is proven for longevity, the materials are readily available at no cost to the user and the process to build is, in most cases, historically familiar and basic. All one needs to utilize this stove is the awareness that it exists. Please learn from this simple site and take it to anyone who can benefit from it. This stove is currently being used by many NGO’s around the world because it depends on no outside inputs to build, in most cases, it costs no money to construct and it empowers communities to create their own solutions. This may not be the absolute highest efficiency stove of its kind, but it is the most appropriate technology for empowering people who need a solution to this issue. It is a stove that is within their reach.
