	Solar oven - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A solar oven or solar cooker is a way of harnessing the sun's power to cook food.
		Apart from the obvious need for sunlight and the need to aim the solar oven before use, using a solar oven is not substantially different from a regular oven.
		The first known western solar oven was built by Horace de Saussure in 1767.

	The Temple Solar Oven Project
		The Temple Solar Project finances, purchases, delivers and sets in operation large baking and cooking sun ovens in world-wide locations where natural fuels are depleted and populations are undernourished.
		The large Villager Sun Ovens are the basis for self-supporting community bakeries to replace outdated and environmentally harmful methods of cooking and to provide new, healthy means for feeding the citizens in deprived areas of underdeveloped nations.
		Solar ovens are meeting urgent environmental needs to reduce global warming that result in large part from the consumption of wood and other fossil fuels.

	Building A Solar Oven
		Building a solar oven that will have the ability to reach 220 F within 2 hours of direct sunlight is relatively easy.
		The inside back of the solar oven is then automatically set for a reverse angle of 130 degrees, so it reflects solar heat directly to the cooking containers.
		Because the solar oven and the prop are secured with hinges, it can be stored when not in use in the down, or flat, position.
