Description

How do thousands of people extract over 400 liters of fresh drinking water every single day in a desert where rain hasn't fallen in recorded history? Welcome to the Atacama Desert in South America—the driest non-polar desert on Earth. In this video, we uncover the incredible story of the Camanchaca fog and how ancient survival wisdom combined with modern passive engineering created Raschel Net Fog Catchers. Discover how coastal communities generate thousands of liters of clean water with ZERO electricity, ZERO solar panels, and ZERO pumps!
