Solid fuels still poison indoor air

Wood and dung fires cook dinner — and fill lungs with particulates.

Planetary boundaries love waffle charts — one cell is a fixed sip of the whole resource. This grid divides world population (2026 snapshot) into colored bands — Polluting cooking fuels and Clean cooking — using equal squares so you compare shares, not country size on a map.

1 cell = 8.2 million people (0.1% of world population) · 1,000 cells

Solid fuels still poison indoor air. Wood and dung fires cook dinner — and fill lungs with particulates.

Context

The 2026 figures from WHO household air pollution put Clean cooking at 74% of world population and Polluting cooking fuels at 26% — roughly 8.2 billion people in this edition's rounding.

WHO / IEA clean cooking access ~74% — inverse for polluting.
