A couple of months ago, I stumbled upon these Ryerson students demonstrating a bicycle-powered generator designed to charge laptop batteries for the computers of children in developing countries. These students were raising awareness of their project and had already arranged the funding to travel to the Cambodia to deliver their creation to children in need in a remote village in Cambodia. Their device is called the WELO, as in We Lo(ve the Earth) and is also a play on words on the French word for bicycle, "vélo."
