Solar Cookers for a Warming World
As someone who is passionate about both interfaith cooperation and environmental action, I couldn't help but be struck by the project in Uganda that was highlighted in the recent URI Voice of the Youth newsletter. Today's New York Times has an article about the importance of solar cookers for mitigating the impacts of global climate change. It should have also touched on the problem of cooking & heating being a major factor in causing deforestation, and hence in resource conflicts.
