Solar energy from pieces of small mirrors could focus thermal energy up to 312-degree Celsius sufficient for extending the life of fresh meat. This simple technology avoids using synthetic refrigerant and electricity to operate refrigerator to preserve food. The use of renewable energy for preserving food avoids adverse impact to not only the ozone layer but also climate change. This also helps reducing food waste.
