Using the Brolly (umbrella), Frame for energy (part 1)

So the COP21 Climate Summit has drawn to a close. Now it’s up to us all to do our bit to help keep below the necessary 2 degrees celsius.  I recently watched an interesting video, Billions in Change.  A potential use for the umbrella frame is to recycle them and perhaps use them in the production of Free Electric bikes shown in the video, that produce electricity for people, located in rural areas, in the developing parts of the world.    These bikes could also be used in times of power outage due to climate disasters.  On an even lighter note, they could possibly be used by anyone running a business and wanting to keep fit at the same time by cycling the static bike for 1 hour a day!
