Windmills kill people, Cars kill people, electricity kills people. Do you have a point?

So obviously what I said was true. Your missing logic is showing.

BTW- How many is "lots"? Are they direct losses? Are they inferred losses?

How many people in poor countries die from dung fires?

"Around 3 billion people cook and heat their homes using open fires and simple stoves burning biomass (wood, animal dung and crop waste) and coal.
Over 4 million people die prematurely from illness attributable to the household air pollution from cooking with solid fuels.
More than 50% of premature deaths due to pneumonia among children under 5 are caused by the particulate matter (soot) inhaled from household air pollution."

"Like Pratibha, over two-thirds of India’s 1.3 billion people continue to rely on carbon-emitting biomass and dung-based fuel for cooking, according to a United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) report titled ‘Sustainable Energy For All’ – released this month.

“More than half of the global population lacking clean cooking facilities lives in India, China and Bangladesh,” says the UN report. “Here, India sits at the top as the country with the largest population lacking access to clean fuel for cooking.”

The prolific use of this cheap fuel in the absence of clean sources of energy causes staggering damage to human health, especially to the women and children of the house, say medical experts.

“Burning solid fuels produces extremely high levels of indoor air pollution,” explains Delhi-based pulmonologist Prateek Kamaraj. “As cooking takes place every day, most people using solid fuels are exposed to smoke particles at a level much higher than the accepted annual limits for outdoor air pollution. Epidemiological studies have shown a clear connection between air pollution and heart disease and stroke.” "

Dung fires also kill people. And more people than coal.

But I suspect you are right and can't see a connection.

So much for a would be moderator of thee Environment.
