- c-oreills 13y agoBiolite does this. Traditional stoves produce a huge amount of smoke which is bad for people breathing it. BioLite reduces the smoke, but they found that men were usually in charge of purchasing decisions and weren't around when cooking was being done, so had no incentive to invest in the smokeless stoves. Adding electricity to the stove meant that men were more likely to buy, thus helping their family's health. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-24116000 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-24116000
