Tackling energy poverty in the developing world
We love this story and organization. Energy will help drive, across the world, a balanced economy. Take a close look (LINK: http://www.energy4everyone.com/About.aspx) at their data on how energy impacts mortality rates, adult literacy and on life itself. Wonderful data.
We'll look to bring them on to a future radio show. In the meantime let us know what you think and if you agree on making these types of global investments and changes:
In many communities across Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, access to energy is extremely limited and the affordability of energy is highly prohibitive. This has a very real impact on the quality and length of life of the affected people.
Founded in 2009, and supported by Enbridge and its 10,000 employees, the energy4everyone Foundation works with the North American energy industry and third party project delivery partners to improve access to affordable, sustainable and reliable energy for those who need it most.
To date over 52,000 people in 5 countries on 3 continents have been helped through this initiative. See our Projects section for more details.
