Innovate or Die - Aquaduct: Mobile Filtration Vehicle

The Aquaduct is pedal powered vehicle that transports, filters, and stores water for the developing world. A peristaltic pump attached to the pedal crank draws water from a large tank, through a filter, to a smaller clean tank. The clean tank is removable and closed for contamination-free home storage and use. A clutch engages and disengages the drive belt from the pedal crank, enabling the rider to filter the water while traveling or while stationary. The Aquaduct is the winning entry in the Innovate or Die contest put on by Google and Specialized. The contest challenge was to build a pedal powered machine that has environmental impact. Please visit our blog ( http://theaquaduct.blogspot.co... ) or email team.aquaduct@gmail.com for more details.

@uraldneprvw that's ok too, but i don't see any new ideas on how to get millions of africans out of poverty
otti7021 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
nice idea but kind of pithy , the music says everything.
uraldneprvw (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
@ogp12 Well, why not treat the symptoms while treating the cause at the same time?
ogp12 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
rather than treating the symptom, why not focus on treating the cause? why are these people poor??

@crzune I don't think the poor people will have to purchase these, the bikes should be purchased by charity organisation such as Water Aid and then donated to these people.

Nice idea, but.....more"cleaner" water to help raise more and more and more and more parasitic humans(yes "westerners' are also parasitic) on this already overcrowded overpopulated increasingly polluted planet. The FIRST problem isn't trying to get cleaner water to those in the "poorest" countries or even to feed them,it's to get the population to "DECREASE BY INDIVIDUAL CHOICE FIRST and THEN they have to choose to work on environment,water,food etc.
