Unchanged: <p>Traditional cooking practices produce 2 to 5 percent of annual greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. They stem from two sources. First, unsustainable harvesting of fuel drives deforestation and forest degradation. Second, burning fuels during the cooking process emits carbon dioxide, methane, and pollutants from incomplete combustion that include carbon monoxide and black carbon.</p>Unchanged: <p>Traditional cooking practices produce 2 to 5 percent of annual greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.

Unchanged: <p>Around the world, 3 billion people cook over open fires or on rudimentary stoves. The cooking fuels used by 40 % of humanity are wood, charcoal, animal dung, crop residues, and coal. As these burn, often inside homes or in areas with limited ventilation, they release plumes of smoke and soot liable for 4.3 million premature deaths each year.</p>Unchanged: <p>Around the world, 3 billion people cook over open fires or on rudimentary stoves.

Unchanged: <p>This problem is very minor in Alberta. Only a few people in remote areas cook with open fires, and in these areas, the wood harvesting and stoves are relatively modern and clean.</p>Unchanged: <p>This problem is very minor in Alberta.

Unchanged: <p>Substantial research has been done on more efficient stoves. Information can be found in the extensive “appropriate technology” literature. Owner-built “rocket stoves” burn small diameter fuel relatively efficiently, and may be an intermediate technology that can be quickly adopted. A method of distributing this information is needed.</p>Unchanged: <p>Substantial research has been done on more efficient stoves.
