Tienen que cocinar con medios de energÃa insostenibles y poco fiables, como biomasa y queroseno, en cocinas pequeñas y no preparadas. Como resultado, quienes cocinan tienden a desarrollar enfermedades respiratorias. ¿Quién paga el precio? Sobre todo las mujeres y los niños.

Cooking is a basic necessary need to survive, but around 2.8 billion people globally do not have access to modern technology.
