☀️🧪 Researchers at the University of #Sydney developed a nano-engineered polymer coating that reflects 97% of sunlight and passively collects #water from air. The coating kept indoor temperatures up to 6°C cooler and captured dew over 30% of the year during trials, producing up to 390 mL per square meter daily.

River Action are taking OFWAT to court in an action many of us will sympathise/agree with.
They claim that recent OFWAT price rise agreements with the water companies are allowing the water firms to bill customers twice for environmental measures;

It has a few water receipts. Experiementing with this is a lot of fun.
