Solar cooking is a convenient cooking method. Today, the useful solar cooker really works and it is attracting more and more people’s attention.Taiwanese people have realized the risk associated with their energy sources; about 97% of the energy sources are imported. This has caused a solar cooking education movement in Taiwan.A local environmental group in Taipei held a solar cooker design competition in some elementary schools last year.About 500 students (ages 8-12 years) were taught solar cooking principles before the competition, After learning basic solar cooking skills, the students were divided into small teams and asked to design and build their own solar cookers in 4 weeks. They were encouraged to be creative and use recycled materials such as driftwood, old fish tanks, CDs, umbrellas, woks, and mirrors.The challenge of the competition was to solar cook a small amount of dried mung beans. While waiting for the beans to cook, each group was asked to describe their design, building process, experimentation and cooperation within the group.It was amazing to see the students’ excitement when they discovered that simple materials could be used to cook food under the sun and solar cooking has really attracted creative kids.

The Langkawi Sky BridgeArchitect Mayur Kanaiya spoke highly of the Langkawi Sky Bridge, a 125 meter-long curve cable bridge atop Gunung Mat Cincang mountain in Malaysia. Visitors can enjoy a very close experience with the forest and wildlife on the curving bridge. Kanaiya said, “It’s a great example of treading lightly on the land.”Meghalaya Tree Roots BridgeThe village of Cherrapunji in the state of Meghalaya in northeast India — known as one of the wettest places in the world — builds bridges out of tree roots. The local people learned long ago how to tame the roots of the native ficus to grow in a certain direction, using bamboo as support. Some of the bridges are more than 30 meters long and can support the weight of 50 people.The Sunken Bridge of Fort de RoovereWhile most bridges cross above water, the sunken bridge at Fort de Roovere in the Netherlands sinks just below it. The walls function like a dam to keep the water out and the structure lies naturally within its surroundings, remaining invisible from a distance.The Rolling BridgeIn London, the 12 meter-long Rolling Bridge curls to one side to let boats through the Grand Union Canal at Paddington Basin. Every Friday at noon, the bridge opens. A Belgian visitor said, “Its eight steel and timber hinged sections will curl up until the two ends of the bridge meet, forming an octagonal shape.”
