Why aren't Farmers, Governments, and Departments of Forestry and Land Management across the world not utilizing Solar Atmospheric Water Generators (SAWG)?
There is a SOLUTION. We know better and can do better.
SAWG's could be easily installed on pre-existing Fire Watch Towers along with a drainage system that funnels the collected water into surrounding landscapes. All states, cities, counties, villages, etc., should have these towers built, including managed forest systems, public lands, and farms - both large and small. No-one need be experiencing land drought nor water deficiencies.
So let's say you're a Farmer or Land Owner who just doesn't have that kind of money for a fancy atmospheric water collection system, well no problem.
Purchase yourself a Solar Powered Generator or a Solar Power Station with Solar Panels, like a Jackery, etc., starting with a base unit if that's what it takes. Buy a descent size Dehumidifier, start small if you have to.
Also, you need to build some type of tower to set your atmospheric water collection system upon, whatever materials you can use to do it is just fine, it doesn't have to be fancy.
Charge the solar generator or power station with your solar panel(s), plug up the dehumidifier, and let it, and the power of the Sun, start pulling water from the air for you. When the catch basin fills, pour it out onto your land. Build a simple drainage system that you can pour the water into and allow it to funnel down and into various areas of your land.
Invite high school and college students to volunteer to help manage the system - perhaps they could earn hours towards a Scholarship or Grant for their help, and allow them to help you manage and protect your farms and your lands. You can reverse this curse - but you have to want to, it's just that simple. 💞
