The replacement of traditional cookstoves with fuel efficient stoves in projects in Mali and Cambodia will replace high polluting traditional cookstoves, which require large volumes of wood and charcoal, leading to desertification. Additionally, traditional stoves also contribute to indoor air pollution, which is associated with respiratory and eye diseases.
