drinking water. According to WHO in India alone, around 2000 people die
every day due to lack of clean drinking water, and out of this,
children under the age of five are most vulnerable. But a Canadian
scientist, Dr.David Manz,to solve this problem in India, invented and
designed an amazing tool that could solve this problem. He developed a
low cost Bio-sand water Filter that effectively removes all the
dissolved particles and pathogens from the water. This slow purifying
process manage to remove up to 98% of bacteria, 100% of viruses, 99% of
parasites, amoebae, 95% of heavy metals and 93% of arsenic. This low
cost Bio-sand filter, is locally manufactured and can also help the
local community with various livelihood option. And, all of that just
Rs. 3,000 and works for 30 years. It is easy to maintain and filters 84
