How Your World Works   /     Episode 39: How to Make a Camp Stove (For Good)

Description

BioLite is an interesting company. Their signature product is a camp stove that burns wood and uses some of the heat to charge a battery, which can, in turn, charge small electronic devices. It's great for camping. But it's also great for people who don't have easy access to electricity or clean-burning fires (which turns out to be a lot of people). On today's show, CEO Jonathan Cedar explains how his company went from simply trying to improve combustion to having offices in India and Africa.Special musical thanks this episode to Jahzzar for "Fire Ahead."
