Summary
This project plans to convert toilet waste to cooking gas and electricity in rural and poor Urban areas in Africa and around the world. It will promote local rural economy and protect the Environment.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
Though, most rural communities and poor urban people in developing countries tend to live simple life, they are the primary victims of complex Negative International trends. A change in the price of crude oil or a shift in the value of currency could have an adverse effect. Indigenous people in Africa and around the world lack reliable source of Energy or simply can't afford it, as such cannot create simple local development. Some rely on fire wood from the Forest which brings in deforestation.
How will this project solve this problem?
We will use toilet waste to generate cooking gas and electricity, Create Rural Bio-Energy commerce, create local Bio-Energy Business, Promote autonomous rural economies, introduce simple local Bio-technology, and work to protects the environment.
Potential Long Term Impact
In the Long term, the project will boost small Economies in an array of small communities around the World, protect the Environment, reduce conflict and crime, and give initially impoverished people autonomy and improved standard of living.
Project Message
Environmentally friendly techniques are more suitable to improving the lives of impoverished people of the Earth than preaching morality to the developed world.
