One of the best ways to provide clean water is having a reliable method of filtering and boiling. Many must use charcoal, wood, dried dung patties and more. Propane and natural gas has many advantages over less viable alternatives.

Remembering the campaign to stop GitHub from supporting ICE and thank you for the handy repo software but would like to know what owners Microsoft are doing to keep democracy from perishing.

Global Water Works is building Rainwater harvesting systems in Kenya. The villagers are building the passive systems that need no power or pumps. Clean water is result.
Please check out the thousands of children that now go to school instead of fetching water all day.

Access to clean water should not be a matter of charity, but a human right.

Stop showing only Africa and acknowledge that 48% of Native American families do not have access to clean water. Getting rid of the EPA is not likely to improve that. Will Microsoft be on the right side of history?

Wait… we currently have the EPA but you’re saying that 48% of Native American families don’t have access to drinking water?
I guess the EPA didn’t provide a solution…

Nice try strawman.The EPA dramatically improved the outcomes for most everyone except Native Americans. It wasn’t their mandate to address structural racism.

redwavemonkey.bsky.social•1 day ago

You claimed that 48% of Native Americans don’t have clean drinking water and getting rid of it won’t help their situation.
Now, you’re saying that the EPA helped everyone but Native Americans.
So getting rid of it would have no affect on the Native Americans since they were helping everyone else…🤔

I went to east Africa last year and in going through towns it was astonishing to see children with huge containers taking long walks to a water pump for water. I knew this existed but to see in person was 💔

With technology available today that number should zero

Is your website called github, because it's a hub where people can git code from other people who've solved the problem before?
