This world, if defined as Humans and their technology, is not worth saving. A Plethora of contraptions exist to do this or that task, not one of which eradicates Human greed of money or lust for power. When backed by the force of governance these same murdered hundreds of millions of people through starvation, disease and war in the 20th century alone. The 21st century promises nothing better except to add Human initiated planet-sized ecological disaster into the deadly mix.

Any interest in submitting a video that details the construction? Looks like a good concept, perhaps you could elaborate on how the pump functions and what is involved in the filtration system.
Thanks

Young lady, I am proud of you. Well done. could I use this in my farm? do you have any alteration, instead of bicycle or elcetric? What is the cost of this machine?

Sediment filters don't remove bacteria. Make it more efficient by adding an electric producing mechanism on the other side to counter balance the work load and that electricity can in turn be used to power a uv stearalizer. Then you're talking.

Most of the clips dont explain that a correctly built bio-sand filter does far more than filter the dirt. It functions by creating a culture of good bacteria that feeds on the infectious bacteria. It takes two to three weeks for this predatory culture to become effective.
