WatAir: Turning air into Water

There is an interesting new device out there aimed at solving the problems of no clean water. Large populations in Africa and elsewhere have lacked clean drinking water for years. This contraption was invented to literally suck the water out of the air and trickle it down into a well. Just one of these devices can generate enough drinking water for an entire family. The inverted pyramid shape was designed by two Israeli architects and is mimicked after leaves collecting the morning dew. Whats more is that this has been designed to exist in almost any climate. More of these should out there making a difference in the world.

The world has most recently seen an increase in new designs and new technologies

that will hopefully arrive in time to save everyone from crisis. The news is often timed filled with more and more horror stories and tragic natural and social disasters.

A design such as WatAir would be perfect for countries with less fortunate water supplies in need of fresh water. A design such as this should be put to more use for the betterment of mankind. If you have a success story with this device, please email jt@theenvironmentalblog.org for your story.
