The Road to Sustainable Charcoal — What world figures tell us and not.

Ugandan schoolmaster leads way in seeking energy efficiency & sustainable renewable fuels for schools
Born to a very poor family, orphaned at a young age, Henry Twinemasiko is providing hope and education to 1,650 schoolchildren in this remote corner of Uganda.
