That way, you are tracking the amounts better.

I'm not sure if it's part of that scheme...Maxwell is more into selling the Jikos than anything...but why not? I'll let him know. I spent another day filming him at his workshop learning how to make eco-charcoal and just enjoying the wonderful company of him and his son Teddy. A new post is coming up on this soon.

I know of a stove produced in Uganda that is part of the program Carbon Manna Unlimited. These stoves used in rural western Kenya will be monitored and the families using them will receive payment for building up Kenya's carbon credit points. The payments will be using Safaricom's Mpesa service. Is there a possibility that the Kenya Ceramic Jiko could be part of a program like this?
