The Health and Environmental Impact of Polluting Fuels and Stoves
An estimated 2.3 billion people worldwide, more than a third of the population, use polluting fuels and stoves for cooking, leading to health issues and approximately 3 million deaths annually. Efforts to promote cleaner cooking methods have been made, but as many as 100 million people have been forced to revert to traditional cooking methods due to economic factors. The need for international support and financial assistance to make cleaner stoves and fuels accessible is crucial.
