When someone is
driven by a specific cause, gripped by a passionate goal, it is empowering to
have that goal reinforced by recent events. However, in this case the news is
not happy. Malawi, the country in which Tricycle Harvest International has
focused the bulk of our attention, has been experiencing a drought, and because
of this, 6 million people are in serious need of food assistance. It is such a
significant crisis that the United Nations World Food Program has given it the
highest classification of emergency. Of course, the U.N. and the Malawian
government are doing everything they can to solve the dilemma, but it simply
cannot be solved without help. Now more than ever, food preservation by solar
dehydration is possibly the most conceivably promising way to eradicate death
from starvation once and for all.
