Equity gains dependent on increased access of poor to new low-energy cookstove technologies and other appliances In developed countries, more efficient appliances may not decrease GHG and air pollution emissions if there is not an equivalent decrease in overall energy use
Disease risk reduction Reduced asthma and respiratory diseases
Fewer injuries from burns due to inadequate cooking and heating appliances Less COPD, cancer and cardiovascular disease
