Simple, Gravity-Powered Solution to Clean Water

Here’s a brilliant solution to clean water collection; Requires no electricity – just gravity!

In places around the world where water is scarce, people can build a Warka water tower that produces 26 gallons of water per day. Yup!  Clean water you can drink. 

The bamboo, hemp and mesh structure can be constructed in 10 days by 10 people for only $1000. 

It uses a basic fog-harvesting technique: gravity, condensation, and evaporation, and doesn’t require electricity or other power. Hmm. 

Looks one of my students who is looking to do ProjectMERIT may take this on!
