\nInadequate transport, poor roads, soaring temperatures \u2013 these are just a few reasons why around 40% food in India spoils before it reaches a dinner table. What people in developed countries would throw in the dustbin with barely a thought, can lead to mass starvation or keep farmers living at poverty levels in India<\/a>. To help combat this, business students, engineers and corporate in Ohio have put their heads together to address this issue, and come up with a very effective, but crazily expensive solar powered<\/a> fridge-shed thingy that no small farmer in India would ever be able to afford! Priced at $5,000, the SolarCool runs on eight solar panels that can keep food chilled, even at night, thanks to a battery that gets charged in the daylight.
\n
\nDespite its wildly high price tag, the Ohians are still hopeful for their invention and are sending a prototype for trials to an aloe farm near Pune, in southern India.<\/p>\n
