Namib Beetle - harvesting water through fog condensation
Shark Skin - Bacteria resistant

Aquaporins - filters for water molecules
Lack of clean/drinkable water is slowly becoming a huge problem in the world and it's something to look into protecting. After all, we'll never not need clean water. This hypothetical system looks at natural solutions for the water shortage problem. The Harvest Hut has the dual capacity to collect water in dry climates as well as rainy seasons and is made for quick assembly and disassembly.
Also check out The HydroPack at Ready Set Drop. This great innovation is being used to make a difference in majority world countries where it is really needed. Kudos HTI!
