Our team is currently focusing on two major indoor and outdoor air pollution issues: 2-Stroke Retrofits and Clean Indoor Cookstoves.
- 2-STROKE RETROFIT
Simply breathing the air outside shouldn't make you sick. One of the worst global sources of outdoor air pollution is dirty two-stroke engines. Envirofit is cleaning up the air by retrofitting two-stroke powered vehicles with cleaner, more energy - and cost-efficient direct injection technology. Following initial successes, we are moving toward full-scale market penetration in the Phillippines and expansion to other global markets. > Learn more
- CLEAN COOKSTOVES
Trying to feed your family shouldn't make you sick. Indoor air pollution caused by cooking meals inside the home kills 1 person every twenty seconds in the developing world. Envirofit has just begun a five year collaborative project with the Shell Foundation to sell 10 million clean cook stoves in five countries. We look forward to sharing our progress and impact on this exciting project with you. > Learn more
