Follow up
I have been sort of experimenting posting on my Blackberry. My last post was in fact posted prematurely. I hope it was understandable to all. Anyway I was talking to a guy who informed me that he is already using the kerosene stove in Haiti. He admitted that this source of energy does truly have the comparable advantage over the coal. notably it is cleaner and more cost effective. I was glad to hear this testimony from the very consumer. We can assume that our people would be satisfied with the product when we could make it available to them. Our goal is to help relieve the Haitian mass of their dependency on wood or coal energy for cooking.

Granmoun is back
No surprise. Who didn't yet know? The point however, Granmoun did not feel well. It was just a minor depression, considering the nature of things. Nonetheless Granmoun is back, fully recovered and working behind the scene. Our mission is to help bring alternative energy for cooking to the Haitian mass. When I was flying back from Haiti, I was placed in a window seat. It was not my chosen. I believe it was the work of the devine nature - the great God himself might have chosen to have placed me there to observe the catastrophe menacing our people. Why me? I am not sure.

It Is The Support That Is Crucial
The way I look at it. There is a crisis; there is a problem that needs a solution; I want to help out. I want to help bringing about a solution. Don't take it any other way. I would like everybody to try to look away from the Haitian maze for a moment and to concentrate on the actual point of "I want to help out." It is said, "Where there is a will, there is a way." This is simplistic. I would not want to abide on it. Yet, we must agree that there is almost a way to almost everything.
When great minds are working, they are just keeping working until accomplishment. And if we take it from our system here, we know that we just have to keep working at it and with the right plan and strategy we would come to accomplishment. I understand that this is completely opposite of the Haitian way. But we who are blessed with the progressive ways, we have a duty too to infiltrate it into the Haitian culture. It may sound far-fetched. But, be serious! We are living in the world of electronic information age, the world of globalization, where the society has literally come together. We have a duty to do whatever possible to help our Haitian people or societal brothers arrive to parity with the greater world. The concern of the complexity of the whole situation is understood. Nevertheless, we have not to abide on negativity. We see a challenge; we take to face it. We would not know what we could do until we have tried.
It is the support that is crucial. Haiti is for all of us. In this world of globalization, Haiti is for the world. And, I think the world community has been doing a bit there to keep order, curve epidemic diseases and so on. Our project of offering alternative energy for the population to do its cooking and related activities would prove genuine and fighting deforestation, and with that many more disastrous consequences affecting the Haitian society and in a lesser scale the world environment would be touched.

Good morning to all. It is an excellent morning to me in Haiti. The sun is shining, the wind is blowing, a fresh breeze is flowing out of the ocean up the mountains of Lanbi down Maryani Kafou, Potopwens. Nice to be back to the motherland and enjoying the opportunity to report my instantaneous feeling. Luckily too I have a little electricity - since last night. As I announced previously, my blog: ecgranmoun.blogspot.com, has turned to a cause that is more of concern to us. I encourage all my friends to check into my site, sign in as member and be involved in the transformation that I am envisioning to make. I understand that the case of Haiti is so complicated and challenging that many of us have given up. Many of us may think that there is no hope. But in reality it is a matter of keeping up the fight to the end. Whatever little difference we could make; that would count a great deal. I am looking at the mountain tops of Port-au-prince at the moment, bare and devastated, almost treeless. And, with no trees, almost all other vegetation, water, animals and other livestock are gone; and, leaving the human being on the point of extermination. Yes, of course I am having a breeze coming up from the ocean right at the moment. But is dry and you could imagine dirty. As an example, when I had just landed and exiting airport Tousen Louverti, the ground was wet due to the nightly rain in the capital. Nevertheless, I could not believe it that so much dust was still floating in the air and into my eyes. There are no tree to hold water, to hold dust, to hold anything. And, until an alternative mean is giving to the mass as a source of energy for cooking, they would continue to cut down the last little tree; and the Haitian ecological system would march on to its catastrophic end. My goal is to help walking away from this catastrophe. I will begin to post some detail from my plan soon. Visit granmoun's new site above; invite your friends and acquaintances. We need help.

Granmoun Blogging From Haiti
My friends and followers I salute you from Haiti. I am fortunate to have a little electricity. But, you know. It is Haiti. By all means, I have a new announcement. I am going to change the subject of my blog. I have a new subject, a cause that is very important to me that is concerning Haiti - particularly the destruction of the Haitian land environment. I have been considering this crisis and have decided to try to lend a hand to my country people in helping to face this challenge. Accordingly, my blog is going to concentrate solely on this subject of helping bringing an alternative energy to the consumption of wood. So, from now on the style and subject of my blog is going to change. I will inform everybody.
