The LifeStraw - safe drinking water to the world’s poor

By Ben Tremblay

Tonicgen.com posted a very interesting article on a technology that would help provide safe drinking water to the world’s poor. That technology is called the LifeStraw and here’s a quick description of it:

The LifeStraw is a portable water purifier for prevention of common diarrhoeal disease – and can be carried around for easy access to safe and clean drinking water.  It is deemed so innovative that it received the  Saatchi & Saatchi Award for World-Changing Ideas this past February.

This really is an innovative technology and is a concrete solution to a complex problem!
