OPEN LEARNING SOLAR - 
A MIcrofranchise App on 5 Billion Person Elearning Platforms?

Some people eg Neville Williams (celebrated below) have been chasing solar energy for over 30 years now; in parallel my father and I have been exploring how open would the 30000 microfranchise solutions and celebrate millennials sustainability that end poverty need to be.

Above are some notes on the solar-a-billion model and the context of 1996's 5 extraordinary partners in mobile womens empowerment. Whether citizen engagement is now ready to decide which innovations need to much volunteer networking and celebration of the sort true microfranchising needs is something I would love your feedback on.
