Solar Still Brolly ...(part 7e)

Solar Still Brolly ...(part 7e), Potential Plants in the desert for treating Malaria

According to the website Malaria Remedy, there are a number of natural ways to treat malaria including the consumption of: Citrus fruits, Cinnamon, Holy Basil, Ginger and Raisins. 
Also, in terms of creating a mosquito free area, look to draining swamps and growing plants in the area instead!  

Well done to Mr Osborne and Mr Gates for thinking about improving the lives of millions. The reference to food (too much or too little!), and disease is very much linked.

Perhaps universities can research and calculate the approximate quantities of trees / shrubs / dosage required to help.  Then the appropriate plants can be grown in the affected areas and used to treat patients accordingly.

Solar Still Brolly ...(part 7d), Blooming in the desert 

Seeing various plants still growing in the garden during this winter period makes me think this concept can be a reality in the near future, (if not already!).  A quantity of water sloshing around the seas and oceans can be applied via existing technology, to the deserts around the world.

Brolly Flood Barrier concept (1) 

So 2016 has arrived.  Happy New Year!  
Nonetheless, sparing a thought and more for those affected with flooding.  Here's another positive idea using an earlier countryside model made of recycled materials. Adapt some brolly, (umbrella) material to create waterproof barrier around properties.
