A climate action advocate running on a drained battery.

Interested in talking about climate action and often have cookouts, a terrific tool to make those conversations happen is a social Tawi biochar producing cookstove?
The Tawi makes for a great outdoor gathering point, bringing people together to enjoy warmth, conversation and ecological firecraft 🔌💡
