resources

hmm. we have solution to our global problem already.
drinking water and electricity.
currently we are using old or traditional methods of obtaining the above resources
but some countries are in midst of switching to earth friendly methods
only prevailant in rich developed countries.
poor countries with lots lots of people are still relying on old methods.
burning of coal, especially in china
depending of groundwater in india

i used to believe human is doom as the consumption is insatiable.
but hope arise as we invent new technologies.
in US, a company manage to make cheap solar film.
much like aluminium foil, can form any shape and still converts electricity.
roof top is not the only place to capture sunlight.
side wall of a skyscraper? unlimited potential. importantly cost alot less.
another company create a amazing thing.
the product can capture the moisture in the air into water.
*drop jaw. wouldnt this solve the problem of shortage of water?
its drinkable water. we know drinking pure h20 is unhealthy in long run
but it could be used for agriculture or put in reservoirs!
problems of desertification could be solved too. its just wonderful.

there are technologies available to solve the shortages of resources,
solve the reliant on burning fossil fuel. solve global warming?
however as usual the human instinct kicks in.
which inventor will gracefully give up potential wealth for the goodwill of human?
will he/she give up a life to be like bill gates or a billionaire life?
thus this technologies aint cheap. not available to poor countries.
