Things can be funny like that, I rarely catch my wife’s colds and vice versa. But I did catch Covid off her.

I wonder how much the whole event cost, including transport and security. If you use round figures, surely there would be enough to award 3 or even 4 more £1 million "Prizes" (or was it $1 million?) to more ventures.
Someone would need to use imagination to design a "Launch Programme", but in this digital age, that should be possible.

A good friend of mine worked in a very large development organisation. He eventually left, partly out of frustration because many good, relatively cheap and very cost effective ideas were rejected in favour of big flashy projects that cost millions and looked good on camera but which everyone involved knew were inappropriate and unsustainable in the long term, so would ultimately be left to collapse.

They could also have had some smaller prizes. Those would be for projects that currently look good, but need more research and/or assistance from carefully-chosen experts.
Very true.
You've also got to question who picks the winners one solution has been around for years. Another is just the same thing under a different name. Even the guy who came up with it at start has now said it's not a viable solution.

Where did you find that information? I am sure it would not be on the website for Earth Shot.
The small cooking unit, is surely an improvement to people's lives. Less fetching and consumption of wood, and then more time for children to go to school.
That's how I got the information for who won then got me thinking hold on a minute.
The pot is one that been around for years cleaner , safer and healthier stoves have been given out for years. Mrs 73 went as a nurse with a school aid project years ago that inc handing them out.

Went out for a birl on the trike but chickened out after a couple of miles due to the bright sunshine. Far too dangerous as it was impossible to see ahead due to the sun in a clear blue sky. Most traffic was cautious but on the way back I am pretty sure a couple at least did not see me. Fortunately I could see them in time and stop in a passing place.
I really need to get something for offroad as there are plenty forest roads but on my current trike the rear mech is only a couple of inches above the ground. They say damage off road is pretty rare but if a couple of miles down a dirt track in the freezing cold "rare" is not good enough.
I did cycle forest roads with two 20 inch wheels but three are a different matter.
