Haiti has an opportunity to break it's ecologically destructive cycle
(deforestation for the production of charcoal) through the use of solar
energy and cheap solar stoves.

Somebody needs to tell LaTortue, he won't listen to me.  (1) The stoves are
in everday use in parts of south/central America, Tibet and Africa.  (2) The
concept is simple; he should be able to understand it. (3) The cost is very
low; even by Haitian standards and NGO help is available.

Check out the URLs below and do an AltaVista keyword search, "solar stoves".
