Los 450 residentes de una pequeña población perdida en medio de la selva de la península de Yucatán, se encuentran a un día de camino de la fuente de agua potable más próxima.

Incluso en un día nublado, el potabilizador solar es capaz de producir hasta 1.000 litros de agua potable al día.

Cites that have recently combined reinvestment in their downtown cores with the creation of transformative transit and biking facilities-like Portland and Denver-are the current relocation places of choice, for those who have a choice. This is not an ideological discussion; we are not committed to an intentional pedestrian lifestyle. In fact, as of this writing, we are seriously considering buying a car. The birth of our second child has created a circumstance where a personal vehicle will contribute to our quality of life. Disappointing? Perhaps, but perfectly in keeping with the idea of the car-optional city
