boy scout international jamboree features 500 solar panel cookers

the boy scout international jamboree in august in the netherlands will feature the use of 500 solar panel cookers to be built by participants from countries most in need of the technology. also for the 25,000 participants and for visitors, there will be an exhibit of various cookers and the ways they can be used to improve the lives of people in countries suffering from an energy crisis. those doing the cooking will take their new skills home and share them with people in their communities.

funding for this project came partly from the girl scout solar cooker fund, a source created and administered by barby pulliam and tierra del oro girl scout council in sacramento, california (usa). the fund is made up of donations by hundreds of girl scouts in that area for the purpose of spreading solar cooking through boy scout and girl guide groups in energy-short countries around the world. fund money has been used also to send a young solar cooker trainer to teach construction and use to teenage girl scouts/girl guides of the asia/pacific region and to send foil, oven bags and plastic sheeting to boy scout and girl guide associations in several african countries.
