Prior studies in Cape Town indicated substantial uses of fuel wood by informal communities for thermal requirements, such as cooking and heating by both households and informal and formal caterers.This dissertation therefore aims to determine whether, and how, informal urban caterers and their clients are exposed to toxicity risks arising from Chromium, Copper and Ar...
