“Over 40% of the global population does not have the luxury to worry about future problems because they are presently struggling to meet their basic everyday needs.”
Tushar Choudhary, Critical Comparison of Low-Carbon Technologies: A practical guide to prioritizing energy technologies for climate change mitigation

Chelsea Clinton
“Born in 1987 in Malawi, William grew up in a village with no electricity or running water, and in a family that barely survived on the food it grew with a little left over to pay for school. After a terrible drought in 2001, William had to drop out of school because his family could no longer afford his school fees. He kept educating himself by going to the library and reading everything he could. One day, he found a book on windmills and determined he'd build one. So he did. Starting with scrap parts he found in light bulbs and radios. William built the first windmill he or his village had ever seen. And it worked, generating electricity for his family and his neighbors.
