So I was watchin CNN online, and came across this video of a family in Kenya who store unclean water in bottle and set them on the roof. After 6 to 10 hours the water is pure of microorganisms like E.COLI. The video does a culture test of 3 samples; one from the bottles, one from a storage tank, and one from a stream. The bottle had no to little bacteria, the storage had ample amounts to cause abdominal sickness, and the stream would have caused severe illness.
Not bad for the sun eh?
