However, I'd warn that often local systems are that way for a reason. In many regions where mosquitos are in excess, cooking with smoke helps to alleviate the problems caused by that small pest. I'm very curious to watch how this project develops. Hopefully with success. Thanks for the post! It’s great to see an increase in cost effectiveness and efficiency.

A second look at the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/16/science/earth/16degrees.html" rel="nofollow">New York Times article</a> I linked as my source shows that 18 percent of GW is from black carbon, which is mostly produced by wood-burning stoves but also by diesel engines and coal plants. However, replacing wood-burning stoves is a rapid way to reduce black carbon, whereas shutting down a coal plant can take years. I've edited the post to reflect this nuance and make sure it cites all black carbon, not just woodburning stoves, as 18% of the cause. @Tony, thanks for your careful fact-checking.
