Biogas Stoves
Full Cost $500.00
Full Share $50.00
Partial Share $25.00
“Cooking usually means gathering firewood by hand … and smoke inhalation in poorly ventilated homes often leads to chronic lung and eye diseases. A biogas stove is a better option. It runs off methane gas captured from animal waste; and burns cleanly, reliably and efficiently. This is not only better for the environment, but it is more sustainable and healthier for families feeding their children.”
