Let There Be Light!

We waste energy. There's no doubt about it. We especially waste it making light. 1.4 billion people around the world don't have access to an electrical grid. In many parts of the world, when the sun goes down, that's the end of the day. Getting light into rural areas of the developing world usually involves burning kerosene, which is costly, dirty and can also be unhealthy.

Steve Katsaros has a solution. His company Nokero (short for "No Kerosene"), set out to get light into as many hands as possible in the developing world. The Nokero N200 is his creation.

It's great for camping, too. I think I'm going to get several.
