AIRLIFE ASSOCIATION IS, ABOVE ALL, A STORY OF MEN... AND WOMEN<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Passionate about Africa, it was during a trip to Mali over 10 years ago that Philippe was moved by these Dogon women who spend their day... their lives walking to fetch water. A vital action for these people that is so simple for us in the West.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

A journey that allowed him to discover a secret and almost mythical people who live in the cliffs, in the caves. An exceptional encounter where extreme poverty, in the western sense of the word, contrasts with the kindness of the population.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

After these strong moments, Philippe anchors these events in his memory while saying to himself \"one day, I will do something for the access to water\".<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

AND THAT DAY CAME!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

His life as a businessman done, Philippe needed to carry out a project that made sense. He enlisted his lifelong friend Lionel and the two of them set out to propose viable solutions for access to drinking water in water-starved tropical environments.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Today, 30% of the world's population still does not have access to drinking water<\/strong> at home (1). Access to drinking water in the world is one of the major challenges of our society. It has become our mission.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Men of action, their goal is to implement pragmatic, operational solutions that are quite easy to put in place. The association is far from atypical because it provides the equipment and installs it with a highly educational approach to make populations self-reliant.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

THE FAMOUS MACHINES THAT TURN AIR INTO DRINKING WATER!<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

These machines are atmospheric water generators, representing an incredible technological breakthrough. They create pure and fresh drinking water from the air we breathe.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The efficiency of AWGs (Atmospheric Water Generators) depends on the humidity and temperature of the air. This means that the higher the atmospheric humidity, the more water the machine will produce. Humidity is part of the Earth's hydrological cycle. The water produced by the AWG, by converting atmospheric moisture into water, contains no contaminants, bacteria, or other microorganisms.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

This technology provides drinking and pure water to places where sanitary conditions are difficult and do not allow for alternatives, such as:<\/p>\n\t\t

Our partner DrinkableAir has already participated in projects in Kenya.
In February 2019, Drinkable Air Technologies was informed by its local Kenyan distributor that an AWG machine had been accepted as a demonstration for the United Nations Environment Assembly in Nairobi from March 11 to 15, 2019.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The distributor and the manufacturer have designated an ideal location, a school, in order to obtain objective and subjective data surrounding such a placement to be shared at the conference. David N. Wandabi, Eco-Schools Programme Manager for the Kenya Organization for Environmental Education, then presented a C8 Model at St. Mary's Primary School in Machakos County.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n
