We have been here for an entire month! Where did that month go?
Saturday we visited a waste management plant, which was vastly different than the one that I visited in Encinitas, CA. There were trash heaps everywhere and flies galore. At this plant the workers spray microorganisms into the organic materials to make it into compost. The septic tanks were filled with similar organisms that removes the need for electricity in the process.
Next we visited the National Institute of Engineering- Centre For Renewable Energy & Sustainable Technologies (NIE- CREST). There were numerous contraptions like solar cookers, bikes used for pumping well water, and my favorite: Tippy Tap (Click for the website) Honestly, it's a brilliant technology, so check it out!
Today we went to one of our professors house and had the best meal since we've been here including SALAD and GOOD ICE CREAM with STEAMED PUDDING. There would be pictures but we were too busy stuffing our faces to remember to take any.
Instead here's a different food picture...
It was a pleasant Sunday and I'm looking forward to the week. How's your week going?
