Boiling Point


Table of Contents

Boiling Point is a practitioner’s journal for those working with household energy and stoves. It deals with technical, social, financial and environmental issues and aims to improve the quality of life for poor communities living in the developing world. Articles are contributed by readers and the journal is a forum for the sharing of information and experiences on household energy. Boiling Point reaches over two thousand addresses and has probably five times that number of readers worldwide. Boiling Point was created in 1982 by Practical Action who published the first 52 issues. Back issues are available below.
