Solution to the world's shortage of clean water

A lot of the world's population including of my country have no access to drinking water and that shows that we have failed in the collective growth of humanity. Many may talk about the lack of food too but you cannot grow food without water. I have a very simple, extremely economical and effective solution to curb all this, especially in the developing and developed countries.

When it rains the water hits the ground and most of it gets evaporated due to sunlight and other factors. This is more true especially in the developed and developing countries where it is becoming harder and harder for the earth to absorb water due to high rise buildings, roads and other manmade real estate and transport routes who act as a barrier between the earth and water. In order for the earth to stay normal, ground to stay healthy and stable it should have a normal and certain level of moisture which is achieved through ground water. The more ground water we have in a place the healthier the soil will be with all the essential micro and macro organisms which keep the soil in a state which promotes the growth of the crops. When the land loses its moisture below its normal level we may start to see land slides and land craters where the land starts to collapse and form craters. Then do we have to go back to mud roads instead of tar roads ? live in stone buildings and caves or huts instead of high rise buildings ? No, we need not but our progress shouldnt affect the planet negatively but we should find out a way to bypass this negative effect on earth.

Since it is becoming harder and harder for the earth to absorb water, especially in the urban areas we should find a way to directly take the water to mother earth's belly. We should all first begin with roads, especially bridges and flyovers. The water which falls in these flyovers goes to waste and cause a small flood on the roads too. We should have pipes which bring that water to the ground at the sides of the flyovers. These pipes should be wide and at a 45 or 135 degrees to the ground. These pipes should attach to the another pipe on the ground which directly transports the water to the ground water zone of the earth. Under the flyover there is a lot of free place anyway and hence it can be installed easily. Between the contacts of these two pipes there should be 3 mechanisms which are easily achievable. mechanism 1) the water from the flyover should enter a filter pipe which connects the ground pipe. This filter should be installed at a 5-10 degrees more than that of the flyover pipe. This filter pipe will have a metallic filter which has 60% to 90% of of it area as holes or pores. This filter will be inserted at the middle of the pipe which divides the filter pipe into upper and lower openings. Only the lower opening should be connected to the ground pipe and the upper opening should be kept open outwards so that the unwanted garbage will be thrown out through a different opening. In very rare cases we might see a situation where if one wants to make sure the water can only go in but doesn't come out  then we can have a squared pipe on top of the ground pipe with a floating lid which only opens in wards but when the water starts to come out the lid floats and forces the lid to close the opening. Here the ground water reaches the underground directly thus avoiding unnecessary evaporation of the water. I wish I knew someone who makes such 3d models (physical or digital) to show this concept visually but I don't know any such person, If you are that person then please by my guest. We have to use water from the sea with huge pipes to refill the ground water beginning with the coastal areas of the sea. India is 75% surrounded by sea and thus we will not have any lack of water.

India has 4 seasons with 3 months rain. If all the flyovers in the city use this then there won't be any problems. If all the high rise buildings use this then there will be surplus water. Imagine a situation where nobody has to depend on govt. or public sectors to supply them with water anymore because you can take the water from the underground itself when you need it. All it takes is a simple law to mandate such installation for every flyovers, high rise buildings, apartments and then later to all the new coming houses to be built, private or public.

In our ancient Bharath this is what they did. They had open wells where they use to take water when needed and during the times of rain all the rain water was directed to the well. If you go to humpi, karnataka you will see that all the stone forts and vast buildings had these water redirectors to redirect every single drop to the underground. If those oldage people did it then why can't we ?

stackexchange: Why do many Hindus eat meat and fish? Eating meat and fish directly violates the principle of Ahimsa

since stackexchange is becoming like reddit and wikipedia where unknown , behind the mask moderators run these sites like dictatorship, I have decided to add answers here. The meaning of ahimsa today unfortunately has been equated to non violence due to the lack of equivalent word in english. Just like atma is not sould, ahimsa is not non violence. It is a state of being. Meta is discouraged and not forbidden in hinduism. Today unfortunately meat has been associated with health and fitness. Let us have a look at the animals in the jungle. Elephant - biggest animal, most powerful animal, heaviest animal Rhino, hippopotamus, wild buffalo - big, powerful, heavy deer - fastest animal giraffe, camel - tallest animal tortoise - lenghty life horse - speed, vigor donkey - most hardworking Many of these vegetarian animals (elephant, rhino, hippopotamus, wild ox, wild bull) can easily defeat any tiger, lion. In fact no lion or tiger ever dare to do a one on one with any of them. You will notice

stackexchange: Are shudras and women not allowed to chant Aum i.e Pranava?

since stackexchange is becoming like reddit and wikipedia where unknown , behind the mask moderators run these sites like dictatorship, I have decided to add answers here. Chanting and reading are different. Vedic Chanting has two parts - Tone and Recitation (Patha). It further has four different tones - Udatta, Anudaatta, Svarita and Deergha Svarita. Pathas are the styles of hymnal recitation. So unless your are are well skilled in these and your pronouncination, enunciation is accurate, you are not supposed to chant. Chanting the same mantras in different way produces different effects, different vibrations. Many a times a slight difference in spacing, intonation, pronounciation, enunciation produces different meanings. So unless you are classically trained to chant these, one shall avoid it but can read them with sound without making a sound, silently. Ex: Many in north india swap va & ba. Ravindranath tagore becomes rabindranath tagore. Many in north india also swap ra & da

stackexchange: What does the demon kali staying in gold mean?

 since stackexchange is becoming like reddit and wikipedia where unknown , behind the mask moderators run these sites like dictatorship, I have decided to add answers here. I think you are taking it in the wrong direction. Many of hindu texts have sub layered meanings.So the parikshit permits him to stay only in places where there is prostituion gold (riches, display of riches) Alcohol (intoxicants which will affect your moral judgement) Gambling As you might have already figured out from the story, kali is non physical in nature and omnipresent. He can not only be present in many places at once but also many kalpas at once. So for easier understanding, think of him as the biggest influencer of immorality. Wherever these 4 things are there, there is a high chance that, the place and the people in it are immoral, unethical. Here are the same 4 things in islam and how it is restricted. Prostitution is prohibited in Islam. It is considered a form of zina, or adultery, which is a major sin
