Meet the World's First Solar Powered Study Lantern
// “A World Bank study in Sudan found that “pass rates in an entire village increased from 57 to 100 percent after students were provided with bright solar lighting.” And, since many people without electricity end up using dangerous, air-polluting kerosene lanterns, which according to the 2007 Millenium Development Goals Report kill 1.5 million people a year—half of them kids under the age of five—the health and safety benefits of a solar powered light can’t be overlooked.”
// That is a great, great public health invention! More educated youth in Sudan => greater life expectancy.
