Problem Statement:
One of the biggest challenges in the world today is generating clean energy. We observed that while the world is looking for ways to generate clean energy. There are so many sources of energy around us that can be harvested. For example, air, water, thunderstorms, and even the movement of vehicles.

About the Innovation:
Young inventors from DiscoverSTEM have designed one apparatus to gather and convert all this energy to electricity. Construction brick used in infrastructure such as roads and buildings will take advantage of the energy trapped in rain, thunderstorms, and the air currents generated by automobiles. The idea is to pave roads and buildings with these tiles which generate electricity from these natural resources and power the buildings and even electric cars on the road.

DiscoverSTEM founders Mirza Rizwan and Mirza Faizan have made history by becoming the first Indian to win the coveted George Washington Honor Medal from the Freedoms Foundation – USA.

Started in 1949 by former US President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Freedoms Foundation honors exceptional contributions of Americans towards communities in the USA. Generally reserved for the US citizens, the awarding organization made an exception to recognize the stellar research work and its impact of India’s Mr. Rizwan in designing and implementing a unique STEM & Innovation program for American children, thereby revolutionizing the education system in the USA.

Few of the other notable non-US citizens who have received George Washington Honor Medal include Ms. Margaret Thatcher (Former Prime Minister of United Kingdom), Lech Walesa (Former President of Poland and Noble Prize winner) and world-renowned Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. As the latest recipients of this prestigious honor, Mirza brothers join historically acclaimed group of citizens whose work and dedication advance the American ideals, the award letter says.

Some of the distinguished US citizens who have received this award for their stellar contributions in their field are Walt Disney, Astronauts Sally Ride and John Glenn, Capt. Sully Sullenberger, Athletes like Arthur Ashe, George Foreman and Tiger Woods and famous US educator Jaime Escalante.
