There are now lots of table waters, artesian waters and glacial waters, yet a combination of world shortage and marketing ingenuity has ensured a constant flow of ever-zanier initiatives.
I’ve seen several machines that capture humidity. A particular favourite of mine is Cloud Juice from Tasmania. Then last week I read about large nets to catch fog in Peru. It’s a rather sad story, really, since it’s the result of inadequate local supplies and severe poverty.
Yet, some German biologists have recently helped a neighbourhood of Lima collect up to 60 litres of water a night from a single panel of netting up on a hilltop.
You can find out more on the project at Water Technology Online. I’d be fascinated if any of you know of other unusual water sourcing stories.
