Saving lives with clean cookstoves: Ethan Kay

“It’s the equivalent…of smoking two packs of cigarettes a day.”

Nearly half of the world’s population cooks their food on indoor open fires. These improvised stoves contribute to not only respiratory illnesses, but global climate change. Ethan Kay believes that all of this is preventable, and demonstrates the clean, efficient cookstove he has developed. (Filmed at TEDxMontreal)
