Photographer's Note
At Sunseed Desert Trust, near Los Molinos, AT is a buzz, meaning Appropriate Technology. These technologies are being tried and tested in the semi-desert area of Spain to be potentially used in Africa or other places.
Here we see tea being boiled from the light of the sun. Other low impact ways to cook, pump water, process waste and grow food are in swing at Sunseed. Staying there is an educational experience that mostly comes down to living "green" for a few weeks rather than being able to make an impact in the world (but then, what can you expect for just a few weeks).
This one isn't here so much for aesthetics as for 'learning about our world through photography' at TE.

Very interesting experience, I think it's good picture to learn about Earth, well done!

Interesting note - I like that places like this exist. Too bad the bright sun makes the rest of the photo so dark, but along with your title, I just had to look. Thanks for posting.
