But now so much less wood. The first few efficient wood-burning stoves from our USAID Small Project Assistance grant have been installed. They seem awesome, and the woman are reporting excellent results. The reduction in wood usage is immediately apparent, but I will wait to take measurements until all the stoves are installed and they have a few months of usage with them. We spent the day yesterday taking measurement of pre-efficient stove cooking-wood usage, so I will be able to come back to you with how much wood they are saving in a few months.
