Fuel Stacking in India: Changes in the Cooking and Lighting Mix, 1987-2010 (2014, unknown): “The choices of cooking and lighting fuel in developing countries are crucial for reasons of poverty alleviation, public health, and environmental protection [2,17,20,27].”
A global perspective on domestic energy deprivation: Overcoming the energy poverty-fuel poverty binary (2015, background): “Termed ‘energy poverty’, this condition has received significant academic and policy attention [4,61,62], often as a result of its extensive impacts on well-being and health: the inability to access modern fuels in the home means that households are often forced to rely on open fires, which in leads”
Bioenergy and sustainable development (2007, background): “It has been suggested that another way to view the relationship between this segment of humanity and the climate issue is not to focus on the GHG emission from their use of biomass but on the GHGs not being emitted by them as a consequence of their low-energy use in relation to the global averages (”
Energy justice for all? Rethinking Sustainable Development Goal 7 through struggles over traditional energy practices in Sierra Leone (2017, background): “Like national and international discourses of energy poverty and its solutions (Guruswamy, 2011; Kaygusuz, 2011; Sagar, 2005) it is obsessed with a narrow vision of “modernisation”, disregarding the roles, relations and importance of other fuels – particularly for the poor, and risking the destabili”
Climate policy and ancillary benefits: A survey and integration into the modelling of international negotiations on climate change (2008, methodology): “It followed an assessment by Boyd, Krutilla and Viscusi (1995), which considered a different (and smaller) set of air pollutants than Scheraga and Leary (1993) did but took account of health as well as visibility effects of air quality improvement in the US.”
Electricity, income, and quality of life (2016, background): “Not only is collecting biofuels costly in time and danger of injury, but also burning biofuels indoors is one of the greatest health concerns facing the developing world (Sagar, 2005).”
Assessment of Biomass Fuel Resource Potential And Utilization in Ethiopia: Sourcing Strategies for Renewable Energies (2012, background): “Biomass resources comprise of residues from agriculture, harvests from forest (in the form of firewood, charcoal, residues), crop residue, energy crops, animal manure, residues from agro-industrial and food processes, municipal solid wastes, and other biological resources [1; 2; 23; 13].”
