PET+water+sun=drinking water: Swiss lo-tech allows people to gain drinking water even in regions like the flood areas in southeast asia.
The method uses just a simple plastic bottle (must be PET) and dark ground (e.g. a roof). Let the bottle heat for 6 hours and the water is ready for consumption.
The method will also be presented at EXPO 05 in Aichi/Japan. Link
