At age 14, in poverty and famine, a Malawian boy built a windmill to power his family’s home. Now at 22, William Kamkwamba, who speaks at TED, here, for the second time, shares in his own words the moving tale of invention that changed his life.

I heard the inspiring talk above and started thinking that true innovation can only be what solves real issues in the real world. Here is the link to the TED talk. Hope to hear your views.
