Harnessing Solar Energy: Spiny Babbler Museum
  
"Harnessing solar energy"
28"x22" collage
Thaiba Farming Community
 

This collage was prepared by students of Thaiba farming community during an arts workshop on "Education Focus: Managing our Resources" on November 10, 2002. Altogether eight schools participated in the event and prepared collages on different themes including understanding water systems, home gardening, impact of natural resources on socio-cultural practices, and recognition of local tree species. The picture shows us how the sun's energy can be harnessed. Note the traditional methods of drying grains on straw mats, the used of straw on the roofs, the process of drying cowdung for fuel on the walls, the black water tank to absorb sun's heat, the making of hand-made lokta paper using nature's heat, and the solar panels on the roof. Nepal, a country that has limited resources can use the sun's heat and light resources to make many improvements in human life.
