Every year, there are 3.5 billion people who surfer from a lack of clean water. Of these 3.5 billion people, 3 million kids die each year.
Michael Pritchard explains that “each day…there are millions of people who are forced to drink dirty water or face death.”
His solution is the “LifeSaver” bottle.
Before the LifeSaver bottle, the best filter had pores 200 nanometers in diameter. However, the smallest bacteria are also 200 nanometers wide, so they pass through. The smallest virus is 25 nanometers in diameter. They’re going to pass through as well. However, the LifeSaver bottle has pores that are 15 nanometers wide and is able to sterilize the water so that no bacteria or viruses can harm the drinker.
Check out this awesome demonstration. For $20 billion, everyone in the world can have access to clean drinking water.
