I copied this from the TV program itself since the information is not on the net under WORLDFOCUS.ORG or DWTV
In Kenya, where the water supply is questionable at best, a simple yet effective way to make the water safer to drink is in use.
It involves taking clear plastic bottles (the kind that holds soda or water) filling them with water, tightly capping them, leaving the filled bottles on the roof or other sunny spot, and exposing them to sunlight for at least four hours. The sunlight must shine on the sides of the bottles, with as much of the bottle exposed to sunlight as possible.
The method is called either Sodis (or solar disinfection) or solar water.
In a clinic in Lolnguswa Kenya Dr. Steve Mamasinke (not sure I spelled it right) “We’ve had a decrease of diareal cases since we started using the bottle and the sun system of cleaning water So according to our records for the first 3 years we got almost a 20% decrease “
And at the moment now I could say we have a 70% decrease of the cases that we have.“
Accounts of illness had dropped 2/3
While the method is effective science still doesn't know why it works.
The Swiss aquatic research institute “Eawag” did one investigation into sodis.
They discovered that UV A beams in sunlight interrupt the energy supply and the transport processes in the bacterial cells.
The bacteria are destroyed in 4 and a half hours.
It was observed that there was damage to bacteria cell membranes and damage to proteins that are important to the viability of the bacterial cells, and sunlight his cells right in the center.

I did a bit of looking on the net and discovered this site-
Knowing how to make water safe to drink is good to know in case of natural disiaster, lost in the woods, etc.
I change with the times- but like silver coins found in your change I stay the same. ***************** The United States of America started out as the new Republic of Rome.
Will The United States of America end up as the New Imperial Rome?
