    They have recently installed a few nets in the southern areas of Morocco, close to the Sahara. And it is collecting a good amount of water for the use of villagers. God bless.

      Hallo Herr Gauland, hat sie auch der komische Algorithmus von UA-cam hierhin geführt. Ihre Frage hat mich selber interessiert. Da in dem Video nicht darauf eingegangen wird hab ich mal recherchiert. Die Netze sind aus HDPE gefertigt, was Lebensmittelecht ist. Zudem ist die Zulassung der WHO für Trinkwasser gegeben. Natürlich kann niemand sagen ob der Kunststoff über Jahre hinweg nicht doch einen Abrieb haben könnte und Mikroplastik entstehen würde, aber was sind die Alternativen? Transport per LKW um Wasser in die Region zu bringen oder gar kein Wasser zu haben. Wären wir jetzt mit dem Projekt in Deutschland würde sicher irgendein Spinner von den Grünen Tausend Gründe nennen warum das schlecht ist. Aber zum Glück findet das Projekt in einem einfachen Land statt wo den Leuten geholfen werden kann.

    For the same time,effort and cost you could have installed solar panels and a solar pump to pump the water from the same well that they are getting it before the nets.
    It will be even cheaper and so much less maintenence. Except keeping the panels clean.

      This is simply a net and a few channels. Far far FAAAAARRRR cheaper than expensive solar panels, drilling, pumping etc. And most people forget that installing these panels is one thing. But the expertise to maintain them is SEVERELY lacking, especially in such remote places like this.

    Staking out sails on mountain tops with unbound edges and tying them down with commercial rubber bungee cords with open hooks connected to open hooks will start to come apart in the 60 or 70-mile-an-hour wind that comes it's way. There are way too many sharp wires ends and sharp metal brackets to shred the membrane. It must be inexpensive, but it is no excuse for an installation that has no chance of lasting.
    As a farmer. that faces dry weather to drought every year, but 3 or 5 out of the 65 years I've had a dog in the fight farming, they could have found people to train how to build the site, install and maintain the membranes. Any place it only rains twice a year, a steady water supply is important to many people.
    I don't know how it was done, but the narrator and the video gave the impression an NGO stuck steel poles in the ground and hired a bunch of indifferent locals to hang the fabric with minimum tools and equipment, then passed the lack of repair off as being to complex for locals. I've thought farm labor, some I couldn't understand as we spoke different languages new technology. It takes some time and repetition. Someone would have to spend time showing them how the system works and climbing ladders demonstrating repairs. You can't hand someone technology that appears to them as magic and expect them to understand and repair it.

      If the site is susceptible to periodic fogs early in the morning, it will certainly work. (A clue may be to observe if there are any plants or moss on the stone in those areas).
      Everything will depend on the density of the fog and the correct storage of the collected water to avoid evaporation during the hottest hours.

The netting shown is a great improvement and should be available at cost plus a small profit; perhaps a way could be made to 'knit' the nets from local indigenous materials such as rushes or grass?
