This makes water from the AIR

This is the Wataire. It makes water from the air. How did I not know this existed?

I was visiting the Ambassadors of the Environment Center at the Ritz-Carlton in Kapalua, Hawaii when I came across this cute little water-cooler-without-the-big-bottle-of-water. A colleague asked what it was. "Oh, that makes water," replied a staff member, as though condensation were a totally normal way to generate drinking water. I guess they're used to it there, but I am so excited about this!

According to Tradewinds Water Hawaii, US citizens toss out 60 million plastic water bottles every day -- and not to make it a money issue, but most of those bottles probably cost over a dollar. What a waste!

So ... why not invest in a Wataire atmospheric water generator? It looks just like a water cooler, only you can put stuff on it, and it makes clean drinking water for the price of a little electricity. No bottle deliveries, nothing. It doesn't need to be anywhere near a tap. It just quietly plugs into the wall. How awesome is that?

Greenest. Water. Ever. $1500 to never buy another bottle of water again. Send this to your boss now. Thanks.
