Santa Rosa de los Pastos Grandes is a village lying 4,000 meters above sea
level in Argentina that has been adopted by Lucas Rodrigues, Luis Ayala and
Gloria Marengo, all of whom work for the former DSM Bakery Ingredients in
Cerillas, Argentina. They are implementing plans to stop deforestation and
promote the use of sources of renewable energy such as solar power.
Following the success of an earlier project to supply the village with solar
cookers, the team has now taken their dream for Santa Rosa de los Pastos
Grandes a step further. Lucas Rodriguez: “This Torch dream involves
the development and manufacture of a solar-powered bread oven for everyone who
received a solar cooker.”
