Homebrew Water


I posted about this topic before here regarding Dean Kamen's attempt at purifying water, and saw this today... A post about a village in Tanzania that is using solar power to purify their own drinking water in a low tech way. Kudos! Not only do I like the technology involved, but that they have hacked this together on their own is all the better (no corporate control).
Read the full article here on BBC's website.
(Side note at the bottom... March 22 was World Water Day. Why do I always hear about these the day after the celebration!?)
