    Read the story

    Can cleaner cook stoves help save the world?2012-05-15 19:33

    Did the slick animations in the Girl Effect video, compel you to buy soccer cleats for a SouthAfrican girl? Maybe Matt Damon persuaded you to invest in Water.org so you can supply cleanwater and toilets to the worlds poor.

    If you havent, youve missed out on a big trend. Overseas development assistance is goingprivate. More and more, private Charities, Foundations, and NGOs are joining, or displacinggovernment organizations such as the U.S. Agency for International Development andmultilateral groups like those of the United Nations to help the poorest of the poor. Celebritiesvouch for various projects, and the Internet makes giving simple. From 2005 to 2010, overseas

    aid from U.S. private groups jumped by 164 percent, while official development assistance grewby only 8 percent, according to figures tracked by the Organization for Economic Cooperationand Development.

    Does the money they donate to global causes actual ly do good? The results of a study publishedlast month highlight how surprisingly hard it is to answer that question. It involved measuringthe effects of installing innovative cook stoves in 2,600 households, in 44 villages, in IndiasOrissa state.

    The clean-cook stove movement has considerable momentum. Championed by Hillary Clintonand Julia Roberts, the Global Alliance for Clean Cook stoves has raised $135 million to reduce

    smoke exposure from cooking indoors with primitive stoves or open fires: The World HealthOrganization estimates that such exposure causes 2 million premature deaths a year. The alliancehopes to distribute 100 million smoke-reducing stoves, which come in endless varieties, by 2020.

    The researchers behind the study, Rema Hanna of Harvard, and Esther Duflo and MichaelGreenstone of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, expected to confirm the health benefitsof the $12.50 mud-based, chimneyed cook stoves installed in Orissa. In laboratory experiments,clean cook stoves have been shown to release fewer pollutants and burn more efficiently thantraditional cooking methods. However, such tests cant predict what will happen in the real world.Thats where a well-designed randomized trial is irreplaceable.

    In Orissa, households were randomly assigned to three waves of stove construction, andresearchers measured a meaningful reduction in smoke inhalation in the first year after a stovewas installed. Over a longer period, however, they saw no health benefits and no reduction infuel use. Thats because once the stoves and chimneys developed cracks, the villagers generally

    chose not to fix or maintain their new devices but instead went back to their old, smoky ways ofcooking.

    This doesnt suggest the clean-cook stove campaign should be abandoned so much as slowed

    down. It would be wise to test various designs in real-life settings, and, where necessary, takemore time to human-proof models. Clean-cook stove advocates need to develop incentives forfamilies to stick with the stoves, and they need to study why many villagers in the India trialembraced the devices yet continued using their conventional cooking fires as well. Otherwise,

    the innovative stoves of today could wind up in the same junk piles, as models from effortsdecades ago. Those castoffs are a reminder that, however well- intentioned, many assistanceprograms for the developing world can prove fruitless.

    The Debate

    Debate is about making statements NOT questions.

    Each debate topic starts with a statement.

    Today the topic is aboutHumans and Environment. The statement to defend

    (agree with) or rebut (disagree with) is:

    Humans need to cook using fire. Fire creates smoke. Therefore, humanswill always need smoky cook stoves.

    Be careful with words like Always In the story (facts)

    What ideas in the story agree with this statement? (defend / agree)

    What ideas do not agree with this statement? (rebut / disagree)

    What ideas expand, do not fit into these two categories?

    In my research (facts)

    What ideas did I find in my research that agree / disagree / expand the

    statement?

    My opinions based on what I know plus facts from the story and my research.On the next page you will two boxes.Numbereach point.Match each point

    topic from the story and your research by theirnumber. Put a (+) for the agree

    points, and a (-) for those which disagree.

    If a point doesnt match, that is ok. This means that you will need to find an

    answer later.

    After you have numbered and matched your points, each one should have a

    plus (+) and (-) to be a match, then you are ready to try a debate.

    In the debate the teacher will give you a point or argument and you will speak

    what you have found in the story and the research. In the second round you

    will need to give your opinions from the research you already did to expand.
