Why use such a high-tech approach for remote, Third-World locations?
Greenstar is not blindly focused on technology. We are focused first on renewable energy, environment, clean water, distance learning, community health care, telemedicine — the fundamental building blocks of a healthy community. Our approach is that providing a start on these basic human needs (using appropriate technology to assist, where possible) is a pre-condition to providing a connection the Web, to providing a solid, long-term justification for funding of ecommerce. There’s no point in being able to send email if children are dying because of a polluted water supply.
