Around the globe, more than 2 billion people cook over an open fire everyday. The smoke created when cooking accumulates to 22% of the annual emission of Co2 worldwide.

At the same time, the people inhaling the toxic smoke die.

Every minute 8 people die from inhaling the toxic smoke created when cooking over an open fire.

That is 480 people a hour, 11.520 people a day and 4.204.800 million people a year.

This is more then AIDS, Malaria and tuberoses combined.

This must change! and Solair could be the solution.
