Fire your ideas

So there I was browsing one of my favorite blogs “Make Magazine” .. It’s a blog full of things that I will probably never make, but that being said, it’s nice to know that if I ever did need a personal submarine, I could make one out of a pig trough (no, I’m not joking).

Moving on though, one of their features was about an African mechanic who repairs automobile alternators with nothing more than bamboo, copper wire and a few other materials. It struck me that innovation is truely incredible in Africa, and that sometimes where you have the least ammount of resources to work with you can often find the greatest innovation. I can remember as a kid watching Clive James in Cuba, and being astonished as people made car oil out of old hair shampoo!

Anyway, as it turns out, there’s an entire website devoted this African innovation. http://www.afrigadget.com/ I highly recommend people keeping an eye on this. One project that particularly caught my eye on the site was the “Playground Pump” … a water pump that’s generated from a children’s playground merry-go-round, and then wouldn’t you know but I found out the same day that a colleague just visited them in Africa.

The history of crude is old but exploration is not as old..As it started in 1959 in gulf of maxico. Its alomost 50 yerars. Before crude it was whale oil which drastically reduced their numbers and fortunely we found crude as gift of old biological life for enlighting our lives. But the rate we are explroing crude and with no other massive energy source available,the condition is alarming. But as it is said ” necessity is the mother of invention ” ,WE will come with some concrete solutions, but what are the options ?
