Solar power transforms lives in remote Amazon communities

Solar panels are transforming lives in remote Amazon communities as El Niño threatens to worsen drought. In Nova Sociedade, deep inside a protected area of Brazil's Amazon rainforest, solar power provides clean water and enough electricity to meet the daily needs of 36 families. The community previously relied on diesel generators, but fuel is costly and polluting, while power is limited and unreliable. So far, similar systems have been installed in 29 other communities. The technology is also providing electricity to schools, health centers and local businesses. 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
