Crank-calling people is the oldest bit in the world.

I never interned. The first job I ever had was a very low-paying job, and the guy running the radio station was so poor, he couldn't pay us sometimes - so it's almost like an internship, right?

Climate change is important to Malawi, but many people see alternative energy more as a means to skip the government and get electricity and power.
