Solar Cooking in the World Today
There is growing movement in the world today around solar cooking, the technology and its many applications. Literally thousands of people on every continent are involved, playing a wide spectrum of roles. Some are researchers and engineers; some are women teaching other women to solar cook. Some like the staff and volunteers at Solar Cookers International (SCI) are doing the vital networking that connects all these individuals and groups so that lessons are shared and each one of us is empowered by the work of the others.
More companies are entering the market each year with their particular
adaptation of the technology and taking the movement into the entrepreneurial
world. Educational materials are being developed and shared in many languages,
so that students of all ages and cultures are learning about the potential
and use of solar cookers and related technologies. Refer to the SCI
website, www.solarcooking.org,
for perhaps the most comprehensive overview of this field. It will guide
you to just about anything you are looking for, including an international
directory where you can find the names and addresses for SC leaders and advocates
all over the world. In the resources section of the KT site are other links
and interesting leads.
