After watching An Inconvenient Truth in class it got me thinking of ways I can reduce my own effect on the environment and since this is a blog about food I decided to research environmentally friendly cooking practices. After doing a quick Google search I found solar panel cookers. You can go out to a store or go online and purchase a solar cooker for relatively cheap. If you are willing to spend around $50 then this is a great option to reduce your effect. Another option which is even more environmentally friendly would be to build your own out of objects that can be found around your house. Here is a link with over a dozen different solar cooker designs that can easily be built:

When I go home I will attempt to build one of these cookers and see how it works out. This is a simple thing that can put less strain on our environment. If we all look into small things such as this we will be able to significantly reduce of effect on our Earth.
you can buildone of these
