I have an electric stove and solar panels,</div><div>so cooking indoors is solar, too.</div><div>The EWG study also called attention to the fact that responsible grazing contributes to reviving bee populations. In other words: One needs to look at issues</div><div>in a larger context, not just the matter of producing carbon, as well as look at what's available and worthy of support locally. For example, if you help responsible ranching</div><div>exist and thereby avoid conversion of land into more sub-divisions, you might be doing some good, even if eating meat might be more costly in some ways than</div><div>eating something else.</div><div><br></div><div>Racheli.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><div>On Jul 31, 2011, at 7:27 AM, sanjay jain wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><div><span>></span>I have built enough this year and so am looking for a pre-made solar cooker that will hopefully cook chicken and bake. <br></div><div><br></div><div>The larger carbon footprint saving would result from not eating chicken.
