Prevent Burns

My favourite school sign post, at the kitchen of Mirembe Primary School. We have been writing about the benefits institutional improved cook stoves provide, in improved health and time savings for cooks, in preservation of forests and associated ecosystem services, and in reducing emissions that contribute to global climate change. Nevertheless, we often forget to mention what this sign posts reads, because they significantly reduce the dangers of burns and scalds, by providing an insulated combustion chamber around and above the fire, which leads to a safer environment for children at school.
