fog harvester
Cloud and fog harvesting has been going on at scale for years, if not decades in many places - particularly in the Andes. This is nothing new. Fences of screens/nets with troughs under them are sited on ridges an or in passes where moisture saturated air movement passes regularly. The moisture droplets form on the screens/nets and gravity takes it down to the trough and then the trough to catch basins/sumps where pumps and or villagers transport the water to use. There have been numerous articles on this in the popular press - anybody bother to look for background?
This is article does not show any signs of the author or editor doing any research on the subject and how and why the un-described "device" might be better and more efficient. The editor of this article needs to be replaced by someone with a broader background and someone willing to research what is "news" and what is not.
