Gol Mohammad
Gol Mohammad is a 33-year-old taxi driver from Kandahar, Afghanistan, who gained international attention for his innovative solution to combat the extreme heat in his old taxi. With the air conditioning system of his vehicle malfunctioning and repair costs being prohibitively high, he commissioned a technician to create a custom evaporative cooler for approximately $40. This inventive device operates using the car's battery and requires him to refill it with water periodically to ensure passenger comfort in temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius. His ingenuity has led to increased demand for similar coolers, earning him recognition in media outlets worldwide.
