A crash course in changing the world.
Act 3: Changing my self to change the world?
After a pretty long time looking for a way to desing an alternative way for some things I use, I decided there I dont have an inventor brain, and also decided that if I can not desing something new, at least I can change the type of energy I used, adopted a new alternative kind of energy power for the thing I normallly use.
So, researching I found somthing incredible.... the first company who import and sells solar energy products in my country. Punto Feria S.R.L. Import - Export.
This company start at the begining of 2009, with their first series of products called Solar Solutions Paraguay. www.puntoferia.com.py
This is a company created and administrated for a 20 years old boy named Hans Edgar Batscheck Rambado and his family. When he has 18 years old, he start looking for the way to bring solar energy products to Paraguay, studing the marked and all about solar energy and it used.
I add a link for a goole doc**ent to complement the information about SSP.
http://docs.google.com/present/view?id=ddwj3rcn_49cpxvsxch&inte...
I comuinicate with Hans for email and two days later I had a meeting with Edith Rambando, mother of Hans and partner of the company, she help him with the comercialitation of the products.
This nice lady came to my home and with all the pacient of the world, teach me about the use of solar energy in a house.
In my photo blog you will find two imagens with the products they have now for selling, and Edith told me that they plan to bring a lot more, like solar charges for cellphones and the solar purse I love.
I bougth some products and I willl buy more, adopted a wh*** new way to use energy, natural and low cost energy.
The first change I made was the out side ligthers.
Thanks to this mission I will save almost 99% of my cost in electricity supplyers and the energy bill will by a lot shoter from now on.
So, that was the action I made about the 3° week mission. I know it wasnt what you are looking for, but at least I hope that the way I decided to change my self can help some one or inspire some one to do the same and together... problable ...we help to change the world.

Way to stick with it! Maybe you can share what you learned with people around you, and maybe even work out a deal with the company to become a local expert and reseller.
