  3. Partnerships with “The Lifesaver Bottle” and “Lifestraw” The Rescue Project will secure and distribute 10,000 units of these devices to Puerto Rico and Flint Michigan
  4. Future endeavor includes, Investing in environmentally friendly technology solutions
  5. Water-Producing Wind Turbines uses a wind turbine to condense water from the air and pump it into storage tanks for filtration and purification.   A 30-kW wind turbine houses and powers the whole system. A prototype of the technology has been installed in Abu Dhabi and has been capable of producing 1000 liters of clean water a day from the dry desert air daily. This product is powered by a wind turbine. That component makes it able to produce large quantities of clean water in areas that don’t have ready access to it without requiring grid power, which makes it especially promising for remote communities and disaster areas.
  6. Providing small-scale renewable solutions like solar hot water heating and lighting, geothermal, hydro, wind and tidal wave power generation.
