Eternal Flame World

'Team points' are awarded according to the adequacy of the solution with the type of innovations sought by Team for the Planet. They correspond to the analysis of several factors :

impact potential: impact average score > 4 => 0,5 point / if > 4,15 => 1 point.
global consistency: all average score of the 6 selection criteria > 2,5 => 1 point.
the favourite: % of assessments judge the innovation as a top one to act on a global scale against greenhouse gases > 20% => 1 point
the targeting: validation of Team for the Planet scope of action higher than 90% => 0,5 point + innovation level of maturity is enough => 0,5 point
social acceptability: semantic analysis score of comments > 0 => 0,5 point/ if > 3500 => 1 point

What is the issue addressed?

Cooking for the world's poorest community members.

How is the problem solved?

We will facilitate community members to turn local waste into heat retention cook bags, which in turn will de-stress water supplies and fuel wood/dung harvesting.

What is the customer target?

The poorest. I have started in Lesotho, where we wish to scale and replicate our model. Could polluters pay?

How is this solution different?

The Eco Cook Bag is unlike the others (I've tried!) as it requires no maintenance and while initially, it seems impossible - once used - it is embraced like the introduction of a mobile phone. Its users save time, water, and fuel, and are smoke-free. We have university research detailing profound impact.
