Now Playing: SkyLink Innovators, Kenyan biogas - Ashden Awards

ADDED: 7/20/2010 at 8:35 AM

Deforestation is ravaging rural Kenya as people strip forests for vital cooking fuel. Yet biogas, produced from animal and human waste is a viable alternative. What is lacking is training and awareness. Sky Link provides both via a network of local entrepreneurs. 200 domestic biogas plants and six large-scale ones in schools and a prison have been sold benefiting at least 5,200 people and saving about 1,100 tonnes of CO2 per year. http://www.ashdenawards.org/winners/Skylink10

There are ways that developing countries are turning waste into green energy, and we can also adopt these measures in many parts of first world countries as well. Its inspiring to see green energy technology and energy innovations being used. I predict there will be more green inventions adopted by these countries in the near future.
