“We will make electricity so cheap
that only the rich will
burn candles”
…was true enough for the industrialized world, but his Statement did not anticipate the plight of 2 billion people -more than the world’s population in Edison’s time – who 100 years later still have no access to electricity.
There are millions of homes in the world
without electricity
And, the people use deadly kerosene Lamps for their basic lighting needs
• About 96 billion liters of kerosene is being burnt annually
• CO2 emission of 260 million tons every year.
• Slow poison
• In India alone, 2.5 million including 3,50,000 children meet with kerosene related accidents
Kerosene is a Killer Fuel
There’s nothing good about kerosene lamps except their elimination
They are inefficient
They are unhealthy They are
expensive
They are dangerous
They leave behind more darkness than the light!
BBC coverage of 6th Aug 2001, which showed the pictures of 28 people charred to death in chains in Erwadi (India).
This startling and chilling incident happened due to
the overturning of hurricanekerosene lantern
Joel, from Peru, is an adorable 7-year old boy with major kerosene burns on his neck and arm causing contractures that prevented him from looking up or raising his left arm.

Look at the stark contrast of these two pictures takenwith kerosene and solar lamps separately with the same reading postures of the children during their study
Even if the kerosene lamps are kept almost on the book and the children bowing their head almost over the burning flames of the kerosene lamps, it is difficult for the students to Read the books. With the kind of light these kerosene lamps give, it’s difficult to spot the Book, leave alone the small letters of the book! In contrast the solar lamps give most appropriate light
