Uganda Pics!

So I've finally figured out how to upload pictures onto my computer!  This is going to greatly improve the entertainment of my blog for the little ones.
But first, I'm going to talk about a site visit our class went to today.  We visited one of the first successful social entrepreneurship companies ever!  Some of you may have heard of it, it's called Uga Stove.  Essentially, what makes this company AWESOME is that it sells environmentally friendly stoves that uses wayy less coal to run, and is sold at a low subsidized price... how do they do that? You might ask... Well, quite cleverly I must say.  Because the stove is so basic, it is specially designed to use a fraction of the amount of coal it would normally take to use an oven.  Because of this, it emits that much less carbon emissions into the atmosphere, and thus is recognizably benefiting the earth.  Because of this, the company has decided to use this eco friendly product to gain "carbon credits" from American efforts to reduce carbon emissions.  These credits turn into money given to the company which enables the company to sell the oven at a lower subsidized price, and makes it affordable to Ugandan's!! Genius and inspirational idea.  For more info here's the web site!!! I fully recommend you engage yourself in the company.  http://www.ugastove.com/

Now for something more friendly for the eyes...
