Solar Lamps Replace Toxic Kerosene

Poor countries that lack power for lighting are now switching from kerosene fueled lamps to solar power. About 20% of the world still lives without a power switch according to recent data. Fuel powered lights are expensive, dangerous, and polluting. In addition to this, the light provided by these lamps are dim at best and restrict any type of activity such as reading or writing. Even the countries in poverty are making the switch to solar powered lights, due to the fact that they do not have any other source of electricity and sunlight power is free. Solar power is also helping the environment as well.
