Solar and wind energy get more of the attention, but building a better wood-burning stove could have a major impact in lowering fossil-fuel emissions. So Popular Mechanics has teamed up with the Alliance for Green Heat and other organizations to back the Wood Stove Design Challenge, and you can enter.
With cool weather on the way, a devoted group of innovators is working to find a better way to heat a home.
By the end of summer, inventors from around the world will enter their best heating designs in the Wood Stove Design Challenge, a competition led by the Alliance for Green Heat and several partners, including Popular Mechanics.
