How Venice solved its drinking water problem Despite being surrounded by water, Venetians couldn’t drink it because it was a mixture of salt and fresh water, so they devised an ingenious solution. Source: primalspace on YouTube

Fascinating! The Venetians' innovative solution to their drinking water problem is a testament to human ingenuity. By using a combination of wells, cisterns, and clever engineering, they were able to harness fresh water in the midst of a salty lagoon. A great example of how ancient civilizations overcame seemingly insurmountable challenges and created sustainable solutions that still inspire us today

Very cool.

Leave it to the Venetians to turn a city built on water into a masterclass in creative problem-solving!

Nearly 70% of the world is covered by water, with just 2.5% of it being fresh. This technology by Nanoseen uses eco-friendly nanomembranes and no power supply to turn salt water into drinking water in less than 2 minutes.

Fresh water is not scarce. We never needed to drink recycled waste water. The earth constantly regenerates fresh water deep within its crust. This is called Primary Water, and there is a never ending supply of it. Niagra Falls is caused by gushing Primary Water. 💦

Elon Musk’s SpaceX was fined by the EPA $140,000 for dumping fresh drinking water The area was a thunderstorm tropical region that rained fresh water on the ground regularly Because Elon Musk “didn’t have a permit” to release fresh water, he was fined $140k Make it make sense

How did the fresh water fish survive Noah’s flood? That question comes with the assumption that the flood was salt water. The ocean may not have been salt water back in the days of Noah. Dr Kent Hovind theorizes that the ocean was fresh water and that all the animals were fresh water animals and that over the last few thousand years some animals have adapted to being salt water animals.

One of the most common questions about Noah’s Flood is: “How did freshwater fish survive?” Interestingly, when Portuguese explorers first encountered the Amazon, they found fresh water flowing so far into the Atlantic Ocean that they could drink it while still at sea. Fresh water floats on salt water. During the flood, massive rivers, rainfall, vegetation, and debris would have created enormous lenses and pockets of fresh water across the oceans. The deeper you dig, the more you realize many of the "gotcha" questions about the flood already have answers.

This water is flowing from upstream hills to Gokul Lake of Alibhag,Maharashtra.then overflows to ocean,by increasing water holding capacity at lake we are able to store more sweet water in salty water area so that it will dominate salt water in the ground,useful for drinking

In Ghana, our water bodies, farmlands, and forests are being destroyed by illegal mining. In galamsey prone areas, the water is so heavily contaminated that water treatment plants are shutting down because they can no longer filter it. As a result, people living in these communities are left with no choice but to drink contaminated water. #StopGalamseyNow

A disturbing video reportedly shows a school drinking water tank filled with visibly dirty, stagnant water, surrounded by moss and algae, while students continue to use it. Clean drinking water is a basic necessity, not a luxury ,,,, who is responsible for this neglect? #School #CleanWater #Accountability

Residents of a community in Nigeria have raised concerns over their drinking water source. In a conversation, when asked about the type of water they use, they responded: This is the water we are drinking. Sometimes we add alum before drinking it. They made a passionate plea in Yoruba, calling on Nigerians for assistance: Jọwọ, Nigeria, ẹ ran wa lọwọ́, a nilo omi! Please, Nigeria, help us, we need water! The community is appealing for support to access clean and safe drinking water.

2. Tap Water (Fluoride & Chlorine) You drink it to hydrate. They add it to medicate. 🔹 The U.S. adds fluoride to drinking water to "prevent cavities" 🔹 Linked to thyroid issues, lower IQ in children, and developmental toxicity Banned in 10+ countries... When clean water needs a chemical justification, it stops being clean.

If you think water is the problem, here's an extended scene in our film that illustrates how ineffective water becomes when a wildfire really gets going, and just how gnarly things get when the winds bite it. It gets so hot, the water vaporizes before it hits the flames.

FLUORIDE - They told you it was ‘safe and effective’ in your water supply … really? Because the science is very definitely unsettled. So unsettled that many countries refuse to add it to drinking water … not the UK though! So much I didn’t know and now do 🔥
