Download or read book Adventures with Solar Haybox and Rocket Stove Cooking written by Jane Segaran and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a teenager living in Nigeria in the 70's, Seggy was always interested in cooking using the sun. Needless to say the first efforts with concave holes in the ground lined with silver foil were not very successful. Then in 2011 he was given a chance to visit Rwanda to promote low impact cooking technologies, such as solar and retained heat (haybox) cooking and rocket stoves. This rekindled his interest and Jane, always interested in sustainable projects, was also infected with a passion for fossil fuel free cooking.This book catalogues our journey over the last ten years, experimenting with solar, haybox and rocket stove cookers and spreading what we learnt as far and wide as possible. We have made several solar and haybox cookers at home and we share the designs of some of these as well as some of the interesting recipes that we tried out. One of the high points in our work was the trip to Sri Lanka in 2019 where we spent weeks working with a charity in the Vanni region. These and other outreach experiences at festivals and workshops are included inside.We hope that these will inspire some of you to make and use some of the designs that are outlined here.

Download or read book The Long Descent written by John Michael Greer and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans are expressing deep concern about US dependence on petroleum, rising energy prices and the threat of climate change. Unlike the energy crisis of the 1970s, however, there is a lurking fear that, now, the times are different and the crisis may not easily be resolved. The Long Descent examines the basis of such fear through three core themes: Industrial society is following the same well-worn path that has led other civilizations into decline, a path involving a much slower and more complex transformation than the sudden catastrophes imagined by so many social critics today. The roots of the crisis lie in the cultural stories that shape the way we understand the world. Since problems cannot be solved with the same thinking that created thyem, these ways of thinking need to be replaced with others better suited to the needs of our time. It is too late for massive programs for top-down change; the change must come from individuals. Hope exists in actions that range from taking up a handicraft or adopting an "obsolete" technology, through planting an organic vegetable garden, taking charge of your own health care or spirituality, and building community. Focusing eloquently on constructive adaptation to massive change, this book will have wide appeal.
