Read passage: ( I'm writing out the first have of the passage. The end of the passage is in the Picture that I Posted so make sure you read it). Passage: Excerpt from "A Cooking Revolution:How Clean Energy and Cookstoves Are Saving Lives" by Chef Jose Andres, June 7, 2016.) Cooking: it's a simple act that has brought families around the world together for thousands of years. As a chef, I can think of few things more beautiful than that. However, I also know how deadly such a simple act can be, not only to our health, but to our environment. Think about it: For Americans, turning on the stove means simply turning a knob or switch. For people living in developing countries, particularly women and childern, it means hours of collecting fuels like firewood, dung, or coal to burn in a rudimentary, smoky cookstove or over an open fire. The result is a constant source of toxic smoke that families breathe in daily causing diseases like child pneumonia, heart disease, and lung cancer, not to mention taking a child away from her education. In fact, diseases caused by smoke from open fires and stoves claim 4.3 million lives every year. That's more than AIDS , malaria. and tuberculosis combined. And the environment suffers, too. When people collect wood every day from their local forests to create charcoal or fuel for wood - burning stoves, it creates an unsustainable pace of deforestation that leads to mudslides, loss of watershed, and other environmental consequences. These stoves also contribute up to 25 percent of black carbon emissions, a pollutant that contributes directly to climate change. You see, from what we cook to how we cook, our foods connects with our lives on so many levels. That's why having access to better technology and clean energy for cooking is as equally important as the ingredients in the food being prepared. It's also why I'm proud to support an effort to bring clean cookstoves and fuels to millions of people in developing countries. ( Question 1: Read this paragraph from the excerpt: And the environment suffers, too. When people collect wood every day from their local forests to create charcoal or fuel for wood - burning stoves. it creates an unsustainable pace of deforestation that leads to mudslides, loss of watershed, and other environmental consequences.

" Why does the author place this paragraph immediately after the two paragraphs about diseases?) A) This paragraph makes a point that contrasts with the point of the previous two paragraphs.
