Nearly 50% of anthropogenic CO2 is directly atrributable to combustion of cooking fuel (predominantly biomass and coal). Eliminating the need for people to burn biomass and coal as cooking fuel by building modern coal powered electrical plants to fullful such needs globally would reduce that amount by a full 50% (despite the burning of coal necessary to produce the required electricity).
