Academic Leads Usach-Harvard Study to Measure Environmental Impact of Heater Replacement

On July 30, a significant milestone was reached in the decontamination of the Metropolitan Region, specifically in the municipality of Tiltil, with the 1,000th replacement of a wood-burning stove. The initiative, part of Anglo American's emissions compensation plan for its Los Bronces Integrado mining project, replaces old stoves with efficient heating and cooling equipment. The University of Santiago de Chile and Harvard University are collaborating to lead a scientific study that will measure the environmental impact of this replacement.
