Dear SCI supporter, SCI leads the solar cooking sector through research, advocacy, and building capacity. Tracking the number of solar cookers in use around the world is a key component of that work. The tracking data shows the continued adoption of solar cooking around the globe. The tracking data also let’s government leaders and investors know solar cooking has a successful history, while continuing to grow. Thanks to you, SCI has identified over 3.2 million solar cookers in the world, directly impacting 11.5 million people. See if your solar cooker is on the map at https://www.solarcookers.org/work/capacity/distribution-solar-cookers. If you are a solar cooker user and/or a distributor, please add your solar cookers to the map at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf9ahLmgIRlyAQUe6zDYWqz7xCWFOFm4TZPNuFbvDxJHdq2OA/viewform?usp=sf_link. Share your data by 6 May, 2019 so government leaders at the United Nations High Level Political Forum will know the great impact of solar cooking. Every solar cooker helps! Please keep updating the information on the map as you obtain, make, or learn of, more solar cookers. Thank you for sharing your data. You make it possible for SCI to gather and analyze solar cooking data to deliver to policy and decision makers. This evidence base is effectively being used to scale up solar cooking around the globe and spread the health, environmental, and economic benefits of solar cooking. Thank you for being part of the solution. Best, Mindy Fox Special Projects Manager Solar Cookers International | |
