Developed by VICI-Labs, along with UC Berkeley and the National Peace Corps Association, the WaterSeer condenses pure water from the air without the need of power or chemicals. According to the company, “it is green, sustainable, simple, low-maintenance, easily deployed and scalable for any community.” It also yields up to 37 liters of distilled water a day.

As water needs are increasing and in many parts of the world there is a shortage, technology like this can haelp.

Experts predict climate change induced drought and flooding, heightened waterway contamination and increased population will stress the planet’s water supply — to the point where wars and civil unrest over the valuable resource will become widespread.
We're already seeing examples of it today.
This is why a low-cost, wind-powered invention — that harvests up to 10 gallons of clean water a day from thin air— is causing such a stir.

London set the record in pollution. I thought it was bad but not this bad. What they want to do to reduce pollution will help but will not be enough.
