FREE water from AIR device: BUSTED

> Crystalline nets harvest water from desert air, turn carbon dioxide into liquid fuel It's like we are stacking crazy, onto crazy, onto crazy. You can't get water from air in deserts or places needing water of any practical, non military use - Here's a start - [this video] We don't need to turn CO2 into fuel, just make fuel/energy without fossil fuels that's also used, and you're solving global warming in a amazing way. It's worth trillions, so it's always AMAZING to see some school kid or amateur scientist or researcher who just needs a little more research beat the multi nationals. It's a shame the multi nationals are to dumb to not hire school kids and these smart ideas people. Just shitty people who spend years studying at university then years working in the industry doing hard work to gradually make change.

None. Or alternatively, gathering Reddit/HN karma or channeling NGO funds into overpriced useless science projects instead of helping people. Thunderf00t has made a ton of videos about devices like this, for example: [this video] The TLDW version is these devices are fancy dehumidifiers. They need a ton of power, and lots of air humidity to be practical, which are exactly not the conditions these devices are advertised to operate in. And even then, the water they produce is dirty, so it needs to be purified and treated to be actually drinkable. Even if we solve all these challenges, it turns out that doing something dumb and low tech, like transporting drinking water on trucks is actually a lot more efficient. This is another one in the long list of devices designed to help those hypothetical poor people, like OLPC and the Gravity Light. It turns out these people have already solved these issues, and much better, usually with off-the-shelf alternatives and a bit of ingenuity.
