Imagine a product that cost less than $3 to make, which could save millions of lives. The private company, Vestergaard-Frandsen, have been known for creating products that could be useful in third-world countries, such as unique mosquito nets. Only this time they’ve created an offorable way to generate clean water through a filtered straw.
The ten inch plastic cylinder can destroy bacteria, parasites, and even some viruses. Thousands of the LifeStraw’s has already been bought during earthquakes in Asia. In theory, someone could drink the water out of a toilet, and be happier than ever. It’s always good to see an idea that helps the people who need it most.
