- Firewood bans are becoming a  popular tool to reduce deforestation

-----
 
 
- Where firewood bans are in place,  it may be unavailable or relatively expensive as sold through the black  market
 
|Stove Types:  
 
 
 
- Three Stone Fire, Improved Mud  Stove, Improved Cookstoves
 
 
 
Availability and  Costs:
 
 
 
- Three stone fires are open fires  and although they have no financial cost.
 
 
 
- Improved mud stoves can be produced  relatively cheaply where appropriate clay soils are readily available and thus,  likely to achieve higher adoption. They provide Tier performance and have  room for further efficiency improvement to achieve quality standards for  clean cooking.
 
 
 
(see MTF framework below).
 
 
 
 
 
- Improved cookstoves can be produced  locally or are available from international suppliers relatively cheaply,  although generally costs increase as higher quality standards are achieved
 
|<nowiki>- Collection of firewood can put  women and children at risk of sexual gender-based violence </nowiki>
 
 
 
- Cookstoves with a low tier of  performance causes high levels of indoor air pollution and associated health  concerns (e.g. respiratory diseases, eye irritation, etc.)
 
 
 
-  Cooking on open fire poses risk of burns and fires
 
 
 
- Uncontrolled exploitation of firewood  can lead to deforestation and environmental degradation
 
 
 
- Competing demands for a limited  resource can lead to friction between the host and displaced communities
 
 
 
- In instances where biomass is non-renewably  collected, improved cookstoves can contribute positively to climate change by  reducing the emissions.
 
 
 
|<nowiki>-  Improved cookstoves are more available than alternative clean cook stoves in  most contexts </nowiki>
 
 
 
- Many  commercially made improved cookstoves are more efficient than three-stone  fires and some (Tier 4) also meet most of the international quality  standards  
 
 
 
- Improved cookstoves have relatively  lower price and higher uptake compared to alternative clean cookstoves
 
|<nowiki>- Most  improved cookstoves do not meet the quality standard for clean cooking,  particularly if used improperly </nowiki>
 
 
 
- Improved cookstoves are dependent on biomass fuel sources, many of which are  unsustainably grown and collected
 
 
 
- Handcrafted cookstoves cannot guarantee quality standards, and consequently  it is impossible to quantify their impact
 
 
 
- Although sustainably managed wood lots are  possible, the size of the land required is generally prohibitive with regards  to meeting the demands of a displaced community in its entirety (this  includes households, businesses and institutions)
