Además, habrá charlas explicativas y demostraciones de cocineros que elaboran sus productos en cocinas solares y se realizará el lanzamiento de la propuesta de Ordenanza Solar para la ciudad de Santa Fe. La finalidad de esta actividad es difundir las distintas tecnologías de aprovechamiento de la energía solar entre el público, permitiendo su interacción y familiarización con dichas herramientas. Esta jornada se basa en la promoción del uso de estas fuentes como alternativas al modelo energético actual, centrado en explotaciones hidrocarburíferas y nucleares, mineras de todo tipo y construcción de grandes represas, generando fuertes impactos locales, regionales y globales, como el del Cambio Climático.

See deforestation first hand, and see the programs that are working now to replace harmful traditional charcoal cooking with the delicious food of the island cooked by the sun.
