Understanding the practical Concept behind Rocket Stoves can spawn ingenious ideas for someone with an Off the Grid, Green Living or 'Oh My God, What are we going to do now?' perspective. Rocket Stoves can be made a variety of thrifty ways with easy to find material or they can be bought premade
Rocket Stoves can be made out of a Coffee Can if someone is without power... be it practical camping in the backyard for fun or in an emergency. So finding out how to make one 'just in case' seems like knowledge worth considering.

The StoveTec One Door Stove burns wood or agricultural waste like palm fronds more efficiently than does an open fire. But some organizations prefer or need to make stoves locally rather than buying one ready made. This is especially true in refugee situations.

Dean Still demonstrates how to make an Aprovecho Rocket Lorena Refugee Stove from a StoveTec combustion chamber and Lorena (a mixture of clay and sand) that performs like a StoveTec One Door Stove. Dean is CEO of Aprovecho Research Center in Cottage Grove, Oregon. Aprovecho designed the rocket stoves sold by StoveTec, which are manufactured in large quantities in China.

The Aprovecho Research Center is open source to help the 3 billion people cooking on an open fire, and to reduce the number of people that die every year from breathing smoke. Mother Nature needs a lot of help right now to reduce global warming, ill health and deforestation" www.stovetec.net
