Developing Sustainable Energy Supply Chains
KISES.org works with local organizations to develop sustainable energy supply chains.
In Tanzania, we are working with local schools on Green Gas systems (Anaerobic Digesters) for both education and energy supply. In Haiti, we are working with local schools on Biomass systems (Bamboo growing and processing) Looking for funding to partner with MIT to develop a new Garden School Campus (Click - Exec Summary) |
Tanzania is facing extensive deforestation - the schools send the kids out foraging for wood to cook lunch. Two schools now have Anaerobic Digesters that turn cow manure into Green Gas - and they have gas cook stoves for lunch. They are teaching the kids and their parents how the system works to turn waste into energy! Larger Scale Solid Waste to Energy is in Boston, Middlebury College and many other places.
Vermont is also facing clear cut forestry for energy - Burlington's McNeil power plant is the state's largest point polluter with 376,077 Tons of CO2 annually- hardly green or clean! Lets RETIRE MCNEIL! |
We need your support for the other 16 schools requesting our system!
