An accessible solution to harvest fog and use this captured water

Suggested by Lissette Arias over 4 years ago

An accessible solution to harvest fog and use this captured water not just for agricultural purposes, but also for human consumption. This problem/need is real for many parts of the world, including the west coast of the US, California. Existing Adaptation to Global Warming solutions can be found around the world but none has been adopted as a standard.

Opportunities for harvesting technology implementation

Relatively simple technology. Once established, it can be run by the community and little maintenance is required
Cheaper source of freshwater compared to some other non-conventional sources of water supply, such as desalination
Diversification of freshwater resources in areas where freshwater access is limited increases climate resilience
Materials for system components can often be sourced locally, creating local business opportunities
Fog water collection has emerged as an innovative technology for mountainous communities without access to traditional sources of water. Still largely in a state of development, there is opportunity for research and development into fog harvesting technology and its potential to support agricultural production. Given the lack of mesh suppliers, using locally available materials for component parts presents an opportunity for local business development. This technology also provides an opportunity to restore natural vegetation and support agricultural practices through the sourcing of clear water for crops and livestock.
