you know everyone my name is a hot before I begin I would like to quickly ask a few would you please raise your hand if you recognize this man or the title or I see no hands so I will have something new to sort of you today this man is my knowledge about how to cover all get back to him later on so let's begin by
looking at the problem at hand this problem why not put up that much is still a very important nonetheless global warming and sea level rising ocean pollution or hunger in Africa our old very pressing I for once would like to focus on a problem far away from here the lack of electricity in remote locations across the board was specifically looking at rural India as an example
now to use well and as an example it would first need to have a vision of it India's current population approximately one point three billion people out of those three hundred to four million don't top electricity on a regular basis and many of them have none now if any of you here the chance of travel to and trouble both urban Endora places for example will be
how are you would have seen the differences between those two what urban India is what you would expect from a Morton sophisticated developed area Google India is much different electricity supply is mostly restricted too few urban centers while will it be as hard to get to the three hours of supply and that too lower voltages and not on a regular basis this lack of electricity spawns
a variety of problems such as one people use unconventional means to provide themselves with light with candles do children cannot study after sunset three work places such as vendors and pay less cannot work efficiently during nighttime before the use of some form devices is limited this is also the root cause of problems such as poverty well hell if and low quality of life now can people
can those people do to help themselves some known means to overcome these issues for example generators and solar panels are a great example of this however they might not be as good in this situation solar panels are very expensive but we don't know and generators on not efficient in the office but they do and because they need to be in close proximity to the houses the
polluted village Thomas people's health so where does this all leads to I believe a new innovative solution can be what these people are looking for do the new movement called billions in change which in my eyes should he have something to help in those people's lives they invented hybrid bicycle but if you pedal for awhile you can create your own electricity while the concept of human
generated electricity is nothing new they managed to craft a designed it is respectively cheap easy to mass produce pollution free easy to relocate in easy to maintain to most parts of it being basic bicycle parts this would fully answer the basic needs of electricity in remote areas while also enabling the use of things like cellphone devices well that's all well and good but why stop there
based on this movement but strive a swing of Asian I would like to think big and expand on this idea my idea for improvement is to create eras of bikes in poor neighborhoods where people from the community we'll meet up in the mornings and pull together create their own electricity this specific bikes will be modified toward batteries with higher capacity this could be used for even
things like computers more advanced machines don't work maybe even heavy agricultural equipment now with all that said I would like to point out that people living in Africa South America even people living in Canada in the moment look remote locations in Canada could have used for this invention before I finish here today I would like you all to look at this quote by my notes part
