The
Rice Straw Power Project was started by Hans Lothar Köhl. The
project is focused towards reducing air pollution caused due to open
burning of crop fields after yielding.
After
spending several years in research and study, Mr. Köhl along to many
other volunteers developed better ways to rot the rice straw which
will not cause any methane contamination or air pollution. The aim of
the project is to provide clean renewable energy and resources by
doing efforts to reduce pollution as well as wastage of energy and
renewable resources.
Under
the project, the volunteers have developed facilities which will
create heating and building materials from the rice straw. This
project will not only resolve the problem of air pollution due to
smoke emerged from the burning rice straw but will also provide a
source of income to many poor families.
The
project is focused in poverty stricken areas of countries such as
Asia, Africa and India where rice is grown in a large amount
annually. Thousands of families in these countries are involved into
farming and through this project they can earn extra income.
Overall,
the Rice straw project will help safeguarding the climate, provide
clean renewable sources of energy along with resolving the problem of
hunger and poverty. The project has gained quite popularity over
different media channels and social networks which has brought it in
front of the eyes of several people and organizations.
The
project is all set to be started and invites public and private
investors for a investment partnership.
