Cool idea!

One thing I found a little weird is they show the fires inside the hut and talk about it causing lung problems. Why not move the wood fire outside the hut? The solar stove needs to be outside in order to work too.

Awesome! My grandfather volunteers doing something similar, putting together solar-cell ovens and stoves to be sent to impoverished areas. It's a really cool effort.

Wow!! This is a really a life-saver for women & their children across the globe! Right now in Darfur women are attacked when they go foraging for fire wood to sustain their families.
