SolarAid--An Organization Fighting Both Poverty & Climate Change

SolarAid is an organization to help fight poverty and climate change. I have to admit I saw the ad on another blog (http://yetanotherpics.blogspot.com/) and decided to check it out. This organization is bringing clean renewable energy to the poorest people in the world.



According to their website there are over 2 billion people in the world living without electricity. This website has some interesting facts like the earth receives more energy from the sun in just one hour than the world uses in a whole year.



The organization officially started in 2006, but the ideas go back 8 years ago by Dr Jeremy Leggett.
