Other than using this blog for technical information sharing and a bit of PR, I wish to also use it to share resources and promote website and organisms that are working in the field of water and have an important impact of said resource.
I came accross Save The Rain, a project dedicated to teaching the developing world how to harvest rain water and use it is a source of potable water.
Now, I have my reservations about drinking rain water directly, without any treatment. Most rains are acidic, as far as I know, and I would be more comfortable doing some type of preliminary treatment before drinking it.
However, lab test results show that rain water is better than bottled water and I am quite happy that they are being responsible in doing the necessary testing and monitoring to ensure that the rain water is indeed safe for consumption.
Good Job Save the Rain!
