Aquaduct, The Three Wheeled Water Filter

Filed under: Public Health

Specialized, a maker of bicycles, and Google teamed up to host a contest, dubbed Innovate or Die, to motivate people to invent green concepts based on the bicycle that will be helpful to the environment. The winning entry will benefit human health and the environment. Here's a video showing off the Aquaduct from a team in Menlo Park, California, a bicycle designed to haul and filter drinking water.

In reality it will probably be not the women who often carry the water, but the kids who like to ride bicycles who'll be happy to do it.
