Clean Water for Sri Lanka - A Film
Published on by Water Network Research, Official research team of The Water Network in Social
The PINA Organisation is a humanitarian, development-aimed organisation, functioning in Sri Lanka since 1988.
In Sri Lanka only 30% of the people have access to good drinking water. More than 20,000 people have died of chronic kidney disease over the last 20 years. Up to 400,000 suffer from the disease. One of the reasons are agrochemicals which poison the groundwater. The affected ones are very often poor farmer families from rural areas.

Kudos to the Pina Organization for treating the ground water with Reverse Osmosis. But please be aware of several issues.
Firstly if the ground water is contaminated with pesticides then Reverse Osmosis is unable to remove the pesticides from the water. Further biocidal treatment is required.
Secondly ground water that is treated with Reverse Osmosis removes trace minerals from the water, which will lead to B12 deficiency over a period of time.
Besides this water treated by Reverse Osmosis is acidic with a pH of around 6.5 that would lead to digestive and nutritional deficiencies.
Acidity in the body may lead to cancer at a future date.
Water treated by Reverse Osmosis cannot block oocysts, microscopic eggs which can contaminate water leading to diarrhoea and severe dehydration of the body, leading to mortality. Bacteria can get through water treated by Reverse Osmosis.

HELLO,
RAIN IS FORMED IN 7 PHASES, NOT 3.
New alternative discovery, incredible to realize that we have missed out for centuries, never heard
-https: //pdf.lu/lsu5/details in one page (EN.FR).
"lightning + thunder + rain = a single operation" You will find most of what I advance as hypothesis in this message.HOW THEN ?
1- EVAPORATION
2- DECOMPOSITION of water vapor by photolysis (UVC: ultraviolet ray type C)

hv + H2O → ↖H2 + O↗
↖H2 (2/29 = 0.068) and
O↗ (16/29 = 0.551),
All 2 lighter than air, they escape at altitude, the lightest will be the highest.3- COMPRESSION (ascending and descending air currents - Opposition of 2 mechanical forces).
4- IONIZATION under the effect of solar radiation, agitation and friction due to compression (all ionizing agents).
H2 → (2H+) + 2é- (called positive cloud) and
O + 2 - (called negative cloud).5 - EXPLOSIVE SYNTHESIS
(O + 2é-) + 2H+ → H2O + lightning + thunder (the cloud is born, it is only here that we can speak of condensation).6- CONDENSATION
7- RAIN. The enigma flash + thunder-cloud-rain is solved.

horrimok@yahoo.fr- If rainwater was formed as we all learned,
1- it would have rained a lot more during the hot seasons because the evaporation is more important than during the cold seasons.
2- A dense and permanent fog from the ground to the height of the current clouds would have formed. If you say that water in the gaseous state is invisible, I would say that its decomposition is even more so (final stage).
3- Why do we expect rain when a thunderstorm is coming (lightning and thunder) if there is not an intimate relationship between lightning, thunder and rain?
