Atmospheric Water Generator & Puerto Rico Is Moving To Atmospheric Water
Generators to Help Solve the Worst Drought in 20 Years</span></i></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">We are
proud to</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> announce, that we have shipped 12th
Atmospheric Water Generator to Mexico. The WFC-15 unit has new technology designed
to lower the energy requirements and make more water in areas with less
relative humidity. Commercial Atmospheric Water Generators have been purchased
and showcased throughout Mexico. Water Technologies has received indications of
interest on the small, medium and large AWGs for use by municipalities, schools
and hospitals. Most recently real estate developers have also shown interest in
AWGs for large commercial and residential housing developments.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Puerto Rico is facing the worst
drought in 20 years and the most stringent water rationing that has ever been
imposed. In some areas tap water is on for 24 hours and off for up to 72 hours.
Water is actually being turned off in many towns on the island. Families,
restaurants, schools, municipalities, public areas are most affected. The aging
water infrastructure struggles to meet the needs of the population in many
areas. Resource experts say many other countries face a similar potential water
crisis as a result of La Nina.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Mexico and Puerto Rico are in
desperate need of clean drinking water for their people. When natural disasters
are added into the equation it becomes a governmental responsibility to supply
clean water and that is the situation Mexico and Puerto Rico have found
themselves in. I know our products can make a difference in these areas. The
warm and humid climate is perfect all year long for generating water from air.
We have been working for months with these 2 new distributors. They have
ongoing relationships with Governments and Institutions that can bring sales
and long term partnerships to our company. The new distributors will cover two
huge markets for Water Technologies' products. The need is growing because of
the droughts, failing infrastructure and contamination of ground water
supplies. There is a strong and immediate need for adequate clean water
supplies to sustain life and provide water for industrial and real estate
development projects!"<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">According to the new research, hospitals are
not the only places where drugs are used rather the use of drugs at homes is
also high. The matter causes issues for the water management as these drugs
become a hurdle for them in the wastewater.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Although
the treatment of wastewater is done through different treatment processes but
they are not suitable enough every time to remove the pharmaceuticals from the
water supply. This indicates that the drugs end up to the environmental waters.
The issue is being watched by the policymakers deeply and eventually the new
regulations are expected for the utilities.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The
question arises that if these drugs are winding up in the sewage system, from
where they are coming? Some researchers from Leuphana University took the
question in the examination and published the results of the study according to
which the major source of pharmaceutical drugs are the households in the
wastewater. If a comparison is made with the hospitals, then the findings say
that they contribute very less to this pollution. The quantity of the drug
contaminants discharged from this source is small.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Even
the share of painkillers in the hospitals is not of great amount. Metamizole
which is a painkiller used very widely constitutes 22 percent share of the
entire consumption. The study also identified the quantity of sedative
Clomethiazole consumed in the hospitals along with the neuroleptic quetiapine
which can be considered high.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Another
drug that has considerably higher amount is the Moclobemide which is an
antidepressant.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">One
of the leading persons in the study, Manuel Herrmann gave the demonstrations of
the importance of the research. According to him, the study has been able to
make them aware of the patterns of consumption by providing a clear picture of
the things making the wastewater polluted. The method used by them regarding
the procedures of measurement, there is the combined benefit of not being very
complex and also it is cheaper. That is why the prediction of pollution is
simple and the reaction of the policy and management is appropriate.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">PPCPs
are known for long and they are not the new matter for the water sector. These
products are able to get escaped through the treatment plants of wastewater and
wind in the waterways that has the water for drinking purpose as well.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Environmental
Protection agency has kept these pharmaceuticals in the Third Contaminant
Candidate List (CCL<sub>3</sub>). Some of the main elements of the study are as
follow;<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">There
is a difference between the patterns of drug usage among hospitals and the
particular health institutions. The consumption of neurological drugs is more
in the nursing homes and the psychiatric hospitals. If total contribution of
the drugs is observed, it will tell us that the households are contributing
more as compared to the health institutions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">For
years pharmaceutical companies were dumping drugs to sewage system and wastewater
that eventually end up in our drinking water. One of the alternative of
insuring clean water supply to population, that is pure and healthy, is to
implement AtmoWater unique AWS 100 systems, which is non polluting, clean and
great testing water.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

officials hope millions of “shade balls” released into the Los Angeles
Reservoir will save water in the midst of the <span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">worst drought
in California history</span>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">
</span><span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">On
Monday Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti supervised the latest onslaught of
4-inch black plastic balls, bringing the total count to 96 million in the
175-acre reservoir. Located in Sylmar, the reservoir holds up to 3.3 billion
gallons, enough to supply the city with drinking water for up to three weeks.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The
city says the balls will shade and cool the water, reducing evaporation from
the reservoir and making it less susceptible to algae, bacterial growth, and
chemical reactions that can produce harmful substances.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">
</span><span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The
effort by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) “is emblematic
of the kind of creative thinking we need to meet [the drought’s] challenges,” <span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Garcetti said in a statement</span>.
(See “<span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">When the
Snows Fail</span>”) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The
balls cost 36 cents each, for a total of $34.5 million. The utility has been
testing the concept since 2008, reporting that shade balls reduce evaporation
by 85 to 90 percent. That should equate to saving nearly 300 million gallons a
year, enough to provide drinking water for 8,100 people, said Los Angeles City
Councilmember Mitchell Englander.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"></span><span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The
balls also inhibit microorganism growth, reducing the treatment the water must
undergo through other means. That could save the city $250 million over time,
said Garcetti. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Made
of black polyethylene, shade balls are filled with water so they don’t blow
away. A coating resists ultraviolet light and degradation. The manufacturers
(XavierC, Artisan Screen Process, and Orange Products) say the balls should
last about 25 years.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">
</span><span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Ed
Osann, a senior policy analyst at the Natural Resources Defense Council, <span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">told
Bloomberg</span> that the shade balls probably won’t release any toxic
materials into the water supply. (NRDC has not yet responded to a request for
comment.) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">California officials are finally
looking to alternative sources to conserve and save California water recourses,
however we are still not out of droughts and little measures alone are not
going to be enough to recover and sustain water shortages. AtmoWater AWS water
stations along with other creative improvements can make the difference and
help California to recover and sustain water supplies for our and future
generations. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The debate has started over the topic that whether there is any
possibility of water supply to be exposed to more danger through the policies
being made for the cutting of the emissions as compared to the risks involved
in the climate change.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Water resources of the United States may face immense pressure
if for the reduction in the emissions of the greenhouse gas, biofuels is made
the source. New researches have been done which showed that if bioenergy is
going to be the source on which the entire policy depends, then unfortunately,
the country would see a hike in the consumption of water by almost 42 percent.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The story has been issued in the journal of National Academy of
Sciences of the United States of America and the story was regarding the issues
that could be faced due to the new policies made relying on the biofuels.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After the analysis which has been done, result came according to
if the care is not taken and attention is not paid towards the water resources
in case of the strategies regarding climate change, the consequence would be a
rise in the degree and occurrence of the water shortfalls. There is a common
insight that objective of the mitigation policy which the decrease in global
warming but this is also going to be the cause of lessening in the shortages of
water.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">According to a renowned author, the outcomes we got from the
research showed that there is a need to take water into consideration with
great care when strategies are being made for any purpose. If it is prevented
and reckless actions are taken, then the chances of such negative results to
come would increase.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">All of the results give an ultimate answer that due to the
strategies of mitigation of climate change, supply of water would be enhanced
and as a result an offset would be seen by the escalation in demand and then
more stress on water would occur as a result of green policies compared to the
climate change.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The strategy in actual does not mean that the emissions are
reduced rather it is act of using the bioenergy crops which would generate the
issue. A situation in which bioenergy was included at very low level, the
demand for increase in water was only found to be 12 percent which was 42
percent in another scenario geothermal and nuclear energy were used as the main
sources. But this energy also has benefits as it has been seen as the policy
proved to be a less expensive one. A criticism over the bioenergy crops was
that they could have left the space for the food crops to be used.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "Garamond","serif";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">AtmoWater AWS systems offers safe and eco-friendly solution to
bioenergy crops, our systems are the alternative source that can offset water
shortages and save our plant. AWS 100 water stations worldwide might be the
answer to climate change crisis. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Lato; font-size: 8pt;">Natural Gas Companies are making a progress to develop the
association with the water industry as they are in need of large quantity of
water. The water customers are going to get the benefits from such alliances if
they are done successfully.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Lato; font-size: 8pt;">Those gas companies which are operating in the Utica shales and
Marcellus are spending money on the extension of the public water lines in the
rural region so that the provision of water can be made possible for the
hydraulic fracturing of their wells. There is a requirement of millions of
gallons of water for this purpose that is why they are looking to take this
step forward. It is also going to be utilized for the building of the treatment
plants.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Three-quarters of the nearly 40,000 oil and gas wells drilled in the US since 2011 were located in areas of the country facing water scarcity, according to research by the Ceres investor network. Over half of those new wells were in areas experiencing drought conditions.
Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, in those wells required the use of 97 billion gallons of water, Ceres found. <br />
"Hydraulic fracturing is increasing competitive pressures for water in some of the country's most water-stressed and drought-ridden regions," said Mindy Lubber, president of the Ceres green investors' network.
Lubber warned that the fracking boom across the US puts the industry on a “collision course” with other water users.
Fracking is the highly controversial process of injecting water, sand, and various chemicals into layers of rock, in hopes of releasing oil and gas deep underground. Fracking in a single well can take millions of gallons of freshwater. Much of the drilling has occurred in areas mired in multi-year droughts.
Half of the 97 billion gallons of water used since 2011 for fracking have gone to wells in Texas, a state in the midst of a severe, years-long drought. Meanwhile, oil and gas production through fracking is on track to double in the state over the next five years, the Guardian reported.
The report also found that rural communities in the Lone Star State are being hit hard by the fracking bonanza occurring especially in the Eagle Ford Shale in south Texas.
"Shale producers are having significant impacts at the county level, especially in smaller rural counties with limited water infrastructure capacity," the report said. "With water use requirements for shale producers in the Eagle Ford already high and expected to double in the coming 10 years, these rural counties can expect severe water stress challenges in the years ahead."
Levels of vital aquifers that serve local communities near Eagle Ford have dropped by up to 300 feet in the last few years.
Many small communities in areas of heavy fracking in Texas are in dire need of water, as supplies have run out in some places or will dry up soon in others. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality says 29 communities across the state could run out of water in 90 days, and that many reservoirs in west Texas are at around 25 percent capacity.
In December, the San Antonio Express-News found that fracking was using more water than previously thought. The newspaper reported that in 2012, the industry used around 43,770 acre-feet of water in 3,522 Eagle Ford fracking wells - about the same usage of 153,000 San Antonio households.
“The oil and gas boom is requiring more water than we have,” Hugh Fitzsimons, a Dimmit County rancher and a director of the Wintergarden Groundwater Conservation District, told the Express-News. “Period.”
A separate study published this week found that the industry does a very poor job recycling fracking water in Texas. Researchers at the University of Texas’ Bureau of Economic Geology found that 92 percent of water used in 2011 to frack Barnett Shale in north central Texas was “consumed,” and not recycled. Only about five percent of all water used for fracking in that area has been reused or recycled in the “past few years.”
Other states do not fare well in the Ceres report, either. In Colorado, 97 percent of wells were in areas strapped for water, as demand for fracking water in the state is expected to double to six billion gallons – twice the annual use of the city of Boulder - by 2015.
In California, 96 percent of new wells were located in areas where competition for water is high. A drought emergency for the entire state - which has traditionally dealt with water-sharing and access problems - was declared last month.

The report found similar high percentages of wells built in other states – such as New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming – where water shortages exist.
"It's a wake-up call," said Prof. James Famiglietti, a hydrologist at the University of California, Irvine, according to the Guardian. "We understand as a country that we need more energy but it is time to have a conversation about what impacts there are, and do our best to try to minimize any damage."

Approximately 80% of all illnesses in developing countries are caused to poor water and sanitation condition. It is common for women and girls to have to walk several kilometers every day to fetch water for their families. Once filled, water jugs can weigh as much as 20 kg (44 lbs). <br />
<br />
In the last century, water use has greatly outpaced the rate of population growth: people are using more water than ever before. By 2025, up to 1.8 billion people could face water scarcity. Water scarcity can take two forms: physical water scarcity, or low quantity of water, and economic water scarcity, or low quality of water.<br />
<br />
Physical Water Scarcity<br />
<br />
This term typically applies to dry, arid regions where fresh water naturally occurs in low quantities. This is being greatly exacerbated by anthropogenic activities that take surface and ground water faster than the environment can replenish it. Regions most affected by this type of water scarcity are Mexico, Northern and Southern Africa, the Middle East, India, and Northern China.<br />
<br />
Economic Water Scarcity<br />
<br />
Economic water scarcity applies to areas or cultures that lack the fiscal resources and/or human capacity to invest in water sources and meet the local demand. Water is often only available to those who can pay for it or those in political power; leaving millions of the world's poorest without access. Regions most affected by this type of scarcity are portions of Central and South America, Central Africa, India, and South East Asia. It is important to highlight the distinction between these two forms of scarcity: water can be physically available, but the resources are not available to improve it and distribute it to those who need it.<br />

Fracking Creates Water Scarcity Issues in Michigan</h2>
<br />
<br />
Concerns about the impact to local groundwater by massive water use—on a scale never before seen in Michigan fracking operations—are coming to a head, as the plan for Encana Oil & Gas (USA) Inc. to use 8.4 million gallons of water to fracture a single well has been stymied by a lack of water on site.<br />
<br />
Instead, the company is trucking water—nearly 1 million gallons of it in just one week—from the City of Kalkaska’s water system to meet its needs. This one fracking operation today is using more water than Kalkaska is using for all its needs over the same time period.<br />
<br />
The Westerman 1-29 HD1 gas/oil well, located on Wood Road in Rapid River Township, Kalkaska County, originally permitted to Chevron Michigan, LLC, is now being operated by Encana.<br />
<br />
The permit issued by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) authorized one water well on the site. The estimated water required for the gas/oil well was 8.4 million gallons. That compares to about 10,000 gallons used to complete or “stimulate” wells in the traditional way—a massive increase in consumptive water use by the fracking industry compared to the past.<br />
<br />
The Michigan Water Assessment Withdrawal Tool (WWAT) estimated that 900 gallons per minute could be removed safely from the site and would cause no adverse resource impact. As it turns out, there isn’t enough water available on the site to provide 900 gallons per minute, let alone be safely removed.<br />
<br />
An additional eight water wells were drilled on the site but apparently they did not produce either. Starting on May 31, water began being removed from the Kalkaska municipal water system to frack the gas/oil well.<br />
<br />
The municipal withdrawal did not come close to supplying the water necessary to complete the Westerman well, so on Saturday, another water well was drilled off site in the surrounding field.<br />
<br />
That water well also failed to produce sufficient water and trucks running around the clock continued to haul more than 900,000 gallons of water from the Kalkaska municipal system over the weekend. At last report on June 4, the water was still being trucked to the well site from the municipal water supply.<br />
<br />
“If the citizens of Michigan knew corporations were destroying hundreds of millions of gallons of Michigan water—water that is supposedly protected by government for use by all of us—they would be opposing this new kind of completion technique,” stated Paul Brady, a local resident and leading contributor of Respect My Planet. “These deep shale unconventional wells are using massive amounts of water without adequate testing and solid data on aquifer capacity.”<br />
<br />
Brady noted that the new fracking methods permanently remove water from Michigan’s watersheds. It is polluted with chemicals, shoved deep into the ground and never returned to the water cycle. Encana has stated in shareholder presentations that up to 500 wells are planned for Michigan. Five new wells were permitted in Excelsior Township last week that estimate using 152,000,000 gallons of water. Eight more permit applications are pending.<br />
<br />
The water use for these types of wells in Michigan is unprecedented. There is no gas or oil play in the U.S. that is using this much water per well.<br />
<br />
The Michigan DEQ has taken some steps recently to try and deal with the astounding amounts of water destroyed by modern fracking. But as of today, the primary tools that they are using to determine the adverse impact to our water are inadequate to even judge how much water is available in any given location (as demonstrated by the Westerman well situation), never mind how much can be safely removed. Michigan has no groundwater maps of this area; state officials don’t know how much water withdrawal our aquifers in Kalkaska County can support.<br />
<br />
However, there is a way to find this out: Do a pump aquifer yield test. State officials should require this testing whenever withdrawals of this magnitude are proposed for any reason, not just oil and gas exploration.<br />
<br />
“This is not about the gas and oil industry,” says Brady. “We wholeheartedly support the Michigan oil and gas worker: They are our neighbors, family and friends here in Kalkaska. We are confident local oil and gas workers value the water as much as we do.”<br />
<br />
Elected officials often remind us that water is by far our most precious resource. They need to step in and ensure that such massive quantities are not misused in this manner, and that unsustainable well drilling is not allowed.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
State officials charged with promoting and regulating the energy industry estimated that fracking required about 13,900 acre-feet of water in 2010, about 0.08 percent of the total water consumed in Colorado. A Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission report projected water needs for fracking will increase to 18,700 acre-feet a year by 2015. Environmentalists point out that the water used by fracking gets lost from the hydrological cycle forever because it is contaminated.<br />
<br />
Several projects in the state have proposed draining water out of Colorado rivers and siphoning the water to towns and cities that have been selling large quantities for fracking. Environmental advocates note that fracking in Colorado could negatively impact the state's rivers, as the process requires a significant amount of water.<br />
<br />
As of 2012, water-intensive fracking projects includes:<br />
<br />
· the Windy Gap Firming Project, which proposes to drain up to an additional 10 billion gallons of water out of the Upper Colorado River every year and pipe and pump that water to northern Front Range Colorado cities including Loveland, Longmont and Greeley -- three cities that have recently started selling water for fracking (Greeley sold over 500 million gallons in 2011).<br />
<br />
· the Northern Integrated Supply Project, which proposes to drain an additional 13 billion gallons per year out of the Cache la Poudre River northwest of Fort Collins.<br />
<br />
· the Seaman Reservoir Project by the City of Greeley on the North Fork of the Cache la Poudre River, which proposes to drain several thousand acre feet of water out of the North Fork and the mainstem of the Cache la Poudre.<br />
<br />
Is fracking to blame?<br />
<br />
· the Flaming Gorge Pipeline, which could reportedly take a large amount of water—up to 81 billion gallons—out of the Green and Colorado River systems every year and pipe and pump that water to the Front Range.<br />
<br />
· the City of Denver has opened up drilling and fracking on its property at Denver International Airport, while Denver is also pushing forward with the Moffat Collection System Project, a proposal to drain water out of the Upper Colorado River and pipe it to Denver.<br />
<br />
In March 2012 at Colorado's auction for unallocated water, companies that provide water for hydraulic fracturing at well sites were top bidders on supplies once claimed exclusively by farmers. The Northern Water Conservancy District runs the auction, offering excess water diverted from the Colorado River Basin — 25,000 acre-feet so far this year — and conveyed through a 13-mile tunnel under the Continental Divide. The average price paid for water at the auctions has subsequently increased from around $22 an acre-foot in 2010 to $28 in 2012. In June 2012, the town of Erie doubled its commercial water rate from $5.73 per 1,000 gallons to $11.46 per 1,000 gallons -- for oil and gas developers only.<br />
<br />
About 98 percent of the state is experiencing varying levels of drought in 2012, according to the Colorado State University (CSU), with the most severe in the Arkansas Basin, where drought levels range from D1, or "moderate," to D3, or "extreme." The Texas drought from summer 2011 is also still affecting Colorado, CSU said.<br />
<br />
An analysis by Environmental Working Group and The Endocrine Disruption Exchange (TEDX) found that at least 65 chemicals used by natural gas companies in Colorado are listed as hazardous under six major federal laws designed to protect Americans from toxic substances.<br />
<br />
On July 9, 2012, the Aurora City Council in CO voted to "lease" water to Houston-based Anadarko Petroleum, which will use the water for hydraulic fracturing. Anadarko will pay the city $9.5 million over five years for access to almost 2.5 billion gallons of water.<br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I would like to take a moment to congratulate our president reelect, all our people who went out to vote today for their candidate. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has been a tuff road, and if one thing we have learned with election today is that our people of this great nation are more divided ideologically than ever before.

However, it happened several years earlier, according to a report presented in Stockholm during World Water Week in August 2008; the result of work compiled by 700 scientists from the International Water Management Institute.<br />
<br />
<br />
Because of inadequate water supplies, and the limited infrastructure to deliver what is available, half the people in the world today lack the basic sanitation level.<br />
<br />
Half the hospital beds on earth are occupied by people with easily preventable diseases caused by impure water. In the past decade more children have died from water related diseases than all the people killed in all the armed conflicts since World War II. Access to clean water could save two million lives a year.<br />

Water ETFs Soak Up Optimistic Industry Growth Forecasts</h2>
<br />
<br />
Exchange traded funds based on the water industry could be on the verge of major growth as rapid expansion and greater demand in the emerging markets drive the global water industry.<br />
<br />
According to Harri Kerminen, CEO of Finnish chemicals firm Kemira, the global water industry may grow to $800 billion by 2035, report Nina Chestney and Henning Gloystein for Reuters. Other industry experts project the market will expand to $1 trillion by as early as 2020. <br />
<br />
“Water is the fastest growing market at the moment, with a size of $500 billion globally,” Kerminen commented. “Most of that growth is in South America and Asia. By 2035, we estimate 50% of the whole market will be in Asia, and it could be worth $600 to $800 billion.”<br />
<br />
Kemira points out the opportunities offered in South America and Asia, which are bracing for rapid economic growth, climate change, growing populations and regulatory reforms.<br />
<br />
“The problem is, the water is the wrong quality in the wrong place. Just 1% is available for industrial and society use,” Kerminen remarked. “If nothing is done, there will be a 40 percent gap between supply and demand by 2030.”<br />
<br />
Kerminen also points out the integration of water and energy sectors as a key area of growth. He believes this area may benefit from greater progress toward efficiency. Additionally, the move from re-treatment of waste water may could cheaper alternative to desalination, which is highly energy intensive.<br />
<br />
“At the moment, there is not enough pressure cost-wise so people don’t act. But within 10 to 20 years, more of these solutions are needed,” Kerminen added.<br />

<br />
<br />
An assessment reflecting the joint judgment of federal intelligence agencies says the risk of water issues causing wars in the next 10 years is minimal even as they create tensions within and between states and threaten to disrupt national and global food markets. But beyond 2022, it says the use of water as a weapon of war or a tool of terrorism will become more likely, particularly in South Asia, the Middle East and North Africa.<br />
<br />
The report is based on a classified National Intelligence Estimate on water security, which was requested by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and completed last fall. It says floods, scarce and poor quality water, combined with poverty, social tension, poor leadership and weak governments will contribute to instability that could lead the failure of numerous states.<br />
<br />
Those elements "will likely increase the risk of instability and state failure, exacerbate regional tensions, and distract countries from working with the United States on important policy objectives," said the report, which was released at a State Department event commemorating World Water Day.<br />
<br />
Clinton, who unveiled a new U.S. Water Partnership that aims to share American water management expertise with the rest of the world, called the findings "sobering."<br />
<br />
"These threats are real and they do raise serious security concerns," she said.<br />
<br />
The report noted that countries have in the past tried to resolve water issues through negotiation but said that could change as water shortages become more severe.<br />
<br />
"We judge that as water shortages become more acute beyond the next 10 years, water in shared basins will increasingly be used as leverage; the use of water as a weapon or to further terrorist objectives, also will become more likely beyond 10 years," it said.<br />
<br />
The report predicts that upstream nations — more powerful than their downstream neighbors due to geography — will limit access to water for political reasons and that countries will regulate internal supplies to suppress separatist movements and dissident populations.<br />
<br />
At the same time, terrorists and rogue states may target or threaten to target water-related infrastructure like dams and reservoirs more frequently. Even if attacks do not occur or are only partially successful, the report said "the fear of massive floods or loss of water resources would alarm the public and cause governments to take costly measures to protect the water infrastructure."<br />
<br />
The unclassified summary of the intelligence estimate does not identify the specific countries most at risk. But it notes that the study focused on several specific rivers and water basins. Those included the Nile in Egypt, Sudan and nations further south, the Tigris and Euphrates in Iraq and the greater Middle East, the Mekong in China and Southeast Asia, the Jordan that separates Israel from the Palestinian territories, the Indus and the Brahmaputra in India and South Asia as well as the Amu Darya in Central Asia.AtmoWater Inchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13985311044447336516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688013142604398771.post-46877485948882989952011-05-13T10:09:00.000-07:002011-05-13T10:09:24.266-07:00DON’T STAY IDLE WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Blue Gold</span></strong><br />

What's the one investment that's crushed every major index... beaten most major stocks... and doled out 49 times better gains than the S&P 500? <br />
<br />
Nope, not oil, gas, gold, or silver. Not Google, not Microsoft. Nor tech or biotech. Instead, says Lehman Brothers, it's the one investment with a market destined to "grow 500% over the next 10 years." <br />
<br />
It is, in a word... water. Yep, water. The "oil of the 21st century." <br />
<br />
Water is blue gold; it's terribly precious... yet less than 1% of the world's fresh water is accessible for direct human uses. This supply is finite.<br />
<br />
One-in-six people in the world lack safe drinking water. Water-related illnesses are the leading cause of human sickness and death.<br />
<br />
AtmoWater Inc. established to address such challenges imposed by the diminishing world’s water supplies providing alternative source of water without harming the world’s ecosystem through Research and Development as well as introduction of innovative technology. <br />
<br />
The single biggest opportunity since oil at $10 and gold under $200. <br />
