From two kerosene lamps per table to one solar lantern; from smoke and pollution which affects climate change to ZERO pollution; from danger of contaminating fish with parafin which degrades quality of food to healthier quality food for sustainable lifestyle; from Tanzania shillings one thousand each day for parafin to ZERO cost.

Note: The cost of parafin for forty days equals to the cost of one solar lantern which will ultimately last for more than five years!
