SOLAR COOKING - Jan Pille

15/05 ..:..

Solar Cooking workshop/demo (depending on the weather)

Cooking without stove or fire is possible and is currently being done quite successfully in different parts of the world. How? Just by concentrating sun-rays and using their heat in a clever way. The system is available in different types, some expensive and hard to put together, others easy to assemble and cheap as chips.

During the 15 May workshop I will show passers-by how all this can be done in a cheap and easy way. I will use the ’Cookit’-model, already used by a Dutch NGO to reduce deforestation in Africa.

More information about the Cookit can be found on http://www.solarcooking.nl. Other types and how to make them are on http://www.solarcooking.org/plans/.
