Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

I URGE YOU TO FIND A FEW MINUTES TO READ THIS !


Clean  Drinking  Water

-------------------------

Around the world , every year , millions of people die a premature death by drinking dirty water , teeming with harmful pollutants / bacteria / germs

This is especially true of our country where , 6.5 lakh villages do not have a supply of filtered piped water to their homes


Millions of people living in these villages depend upon water sources such as open wells / bore wells / ponds / rivers , around which village women wash their dirty cloths / vessels and take baths


Even the dirty water flowing out of huts / homes, gets absorbed into the soil surrounding these water sources and further pollutes them !


All of these water sources are highly polluted and the traditional method of filtering with a thin cloth is just not enough to remove those pollutants

True , some germs / bacteria can be killed by boiling the water and then cooling it before drinking


But , to do that , one needs to burn wood / cow dung cakes , which cause air pollution and deforestation !


And , of course , villagers cannot afford expensive methods such as :

*   Reverse Osmosis

*   Water Heating Stills

*   Desalination Plants


What they need is some  SIMPLE and CHEAP  method , which does not require ,

*  burning of wood / cow dung cakes

*  supply of electricity

*  frequent replacement of expensive filters

*  difficult maintenance


It is very heartening that a team of scientists have just come up with such a method

By draping black, carbon-dipped paper in a triangular shape and using it to both absorb and vaporize water, they have developed a method for using sunlight to generate clean water with near-perfect efficiency

I urge Shri Nitin Gadkariji ( Minister for Water Resources ) to contact these scientists at :

SPEED MATTERS

Our patented carbon nano-material cloth has the ability to evaporate water at rates of up to 1.4 kg per square meter per hour
