I wholeheartedly agree with the conment that this huge crisis of clean drinking water requires us to not nickel and dime a solution. There is a very viable resource that has been very overlooked to provide safe drinking water in copious amounts. It is the atmospheric water generation system. I do eco-tours to East Africa 9www.enterafrica.net) and also helped form a women's recycling cooperative in Zanzibar that helped support the successful effort that led to that island being the first place in Africa to ban the import of those awful little plastic bags. I also work with a global company based in Houston, Texas that manufactures machines that can generate from 10 gallons per day (to eliminate plastic bottle usage in homes and offices) all the way up to 1350 gallons per day of very clean drinking water in a unit that is extremely durable and very easy and low maintenance--1350 gallons would handle a good size village's daily drinking needs. Yes, it requires electricity, but that is what solar and other alternative energy sources are supposed to handle and will handle even better than regular power in places where there is abundant sun. And yes, it comes at a cost, in the low six figures, to be more exact, but that is a drop in the bucket, if you will, for the large foundations and rich entertainers and all the other global resources that are purporting to want to solve this crisis. We will be exhibiting a small version of the unit at the Hudson Highland Land Trust's sustainability day in Garrison, New York on November 10 and at the eeGlobal forum in Washington, DC on the 11th to 14th of November if anyone is in the area, feel free to come by and see how it works. We are contributing a percentage of our sales as distributors to a fund that will purchase the larger units for villages in Tanzania. This will go a long way toward dealing with supplying water from the totally renewable resource that is the atmosphere while at the same time restoring health to these children and their families who are suffering needlessly for want of a simple clean drink of water.
