Water Everywhere But Not A Drop
To Drink
Water, water everywhere, but
not a drop to drink! This is not
a scenario in the ocean, but on
land, where global warming has
brought about massive flooding,
including water reservoirs.
Occasionally, there is no
electricity as well because the
local substation is inoperable due
to water flooding. What can we do
now? Here is a useful suggestion.
Rebuild our houses with underground
water reservoirs. And make it big
enough to store water for at least a
month’s supply. House compounds
should also be paved with a layer of
surface, either natural or syntactic
materials to trap and filter run off
rain water. The filtered water
should then be channeled to the
underground water reservoir by way
of pipes and pumps. The reservoir
will be able to accommodate pipe
water as well as rain water. Rain
water might not be that forthcoming
during dry weather season, so if you
fill the reservoir with three
quarters full of pipe water, you
would at least have water during
emergencies. There should also be in
place an automatic control system
for the water so that it would be
able to function without
supervision. Present day telemetry
devices are intelligent enough to
make your automatic system trouble
free. You can even wire it in such a
way that you can check on its
condition while away from the house.
There will be electric pumps
installed to channel the inflow and
outflow of water. In case of
emergencies, an auxiliary gasoline
fired electrical generation set
should also be wired into the pumps.
It should also be sited at a level
where it would not be easily flooded
by water, and in this respect, it
would be advisable to site it at
ceiling levels. This is a very basic
system and other items can be
affixed to make it a comprehensive
system.
This is an idea that
I have suggested in my book entitled
'Invention: The moment before the
spark came' published some time ago
by LuLu.com and if you are
