HydroLogic Part 1: Evaporate or Precipitate

While  the Carribbean, Florida and Houston are underwater, water scarcity plagues places like Yemen and Australia. Yet places like Flint thirst (and Houston, Puerto Rico, San Joaquin) for non-toxic water. With so many water issues swirling around us, the team has decided to take a closer look. This is the first of a three part series we are calling: 

Hydrologic.

Part 1. Evaporate or Precipitate.

Connectopod explores the water issues we face of too much or too little and what we might do about it. 

Part 2. The Condensation of Ideas.

The connectopod team interviews Mrs. Gonzales' 6th grade "Incredibots"  team competing in the national Lego Robotics Competition. They must design a solution for a water issue. Using robots!!! 

Part 3: Collection.

Designer Stella Hernandez created Safe Agua with fellow students at the Arts Center in Pasadena. Three years later, their design of  a water collection system is in use in economically challenged communities in Colombia, Peru and Central California. She teaches the design at USC. Safe Agua has been exhibited at the Museum of Natural History in NY and the Smithsonian in Washington DC. And Connectopod gets to interview her!
