1. Project Infomation
1.1. Solar cooker
1.1.1. A device which uses the energy of direct sunlight to heat,cook or pasteurize food or drink.
1.1.2. The vast majority of it in use are cheap,.low technology devices.
1.1.3. Non profit organizations are promoting their use worldwide due to the zero cost and no need of fuel
1.1.4. A form of outdoor cooking,often used in situations where minimal fuel consumption is important.
1.1.5. Chances of a fire is rare due to the lack of fuel
1.1.6. Commonly used by poor people when there is a lack or fuel
1.1.7. Very effective in places where there are strong sunlight
