William Kamkwamba

William Kamkwamba is from a small country in Africa. He is an amazing person. He was able to come from being a dropout from school to building a windmill. William Kamkwamba is an amazing person because, unlike other people in poor countries, he went and did something about it instead of just waiting around for other people from other countries to do something. He was also able to build a windmill by reading books and figuring out on his own how to build one.

I think that the concept of people building their own windmills should be brought to other poor countries. William could go to other countries and talk to them about what he did and what they could do to make their lives easier and maybe happier. Not just William but other people who learn and teach about energy could go and teach them about windmills and other technologies they can use for their own use.

I think that it is amazing how countries like Canada and the United States have all this new technology and places like Malawi are just starting to get windmills. I believe that if places like Malawi could get the knowledge and supplies that they need that they could start to get more advanced technological wise.
