+===== What are rocket stoves? =====
 Rocket stoves are stoves designed to burn wood, but also to operate at high enough temperatures to superheat the wood to release gases that are also burnt, increasing efficiency. The flammable gases released are hydrogen and methane, which are burnt, along with carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and steam, which are vented.
