This is a school kitchen; the women is the cook. Note that every child brings 3 liters of water to school every day because the school has no access to water.
The biggest tree Kristoffer has ever seen. It is a baobab tree, very common here.

This is a household energy-saving stove that I am working on getting distributed to refugees in Kenya. I was testing it at home to see how much wood it used and how much time it took to boil water: the results showed that it used about 70% less wood than a traditional stove (1/2 pound of firewood to bring 2 liters of water to boil in 17 minutes).
