The most importants problematics with wastes are maybe not in our Mountains…

But they are so many ways to re-use it and re-cycle it!

 

 

The Dropnet, le fameux fog collectors!!

The Dropnet by German designer Imke Hoehler is a tent-like fog collector designed to potentially supply drinking water to rural areas with low infrastructure.
The Dropnet is easily assembled, with curved tensile nets made from polypropylene mesh. Water is collected via drain gutters which are connected to the net by weltings, draining the water into a small tank.
The fog collectors has been designed to be built up on flat grounds and hillsides on arid, high-altitude areas which exhibit a lot of fog accumulation.
A number of fog collectors installed and connected to pipelines have the capacity to supply a small village with enough drinking water.
