water from the air

There is a billboard in Peru that generates clean pure filtered water from the humidity in the air. This is in the Atacama Desert. I think we need some in Texas and other states.

I suspect that it is far from economical - some NGO is likely financing that rig with our tax dollars

Rain? Sorry Peg, I couldn't help myself. :lol: In Portland there was a company called Oregon Rain who bottled captured and sold rain water. How green is that?..... Not enough for our Libs.

:lol2: Yeah,when I wrote it I thought ??rain??? but it doesn't rain there-e v e r..
It's a good idea,and I hope some bright spark comes up with something.. We're getting more and more people coming here and all of a sudden,"they" are going "Water?"

Same basic concept as a dehumidifier
Energy use is still high and needs to be filtered
Some talk of this on a wide scale in arid area's and removing lots of moisture from the air thus less rainfall
