Water4Patriots Seeks to Shower Americans with LifeStraws as Drought Worsens

approved - April 11, 2015 /approved/ —

With drought in the West and Southwest seeming to worsen every day, the Environmental Protection Agency is now looking to find out how much water is being wasted by hotel patrons.

According to a recent Fox News article, the EPA is creating a wireless system that will track how much water a hotel guest uses in order to get them to modify their behavior. The device the agency has in mind will be designed to fit most new and existing hotel shower fixtures and will wirelessly transmit hotel guest water usage data to a central hotel accounting system.

As the lack of clean drinking water increases in certain areas of the country, Water4Patriots officials believe the day will come when people will need ways to make contaminated water clean enough to drink and use for other purposes. They can do exactly that through the LifeStraw personal water filter.

It’s the world’s most advanced water filter, removing 99.999 percent of waterborne bacteria and parasites, and providing the user with crystal-clear, life-giving water when no clean drinking water is available.

Lightweight LifeStraw Needs No Batteries

This compact device, which can be carried anywhere, weighs only two ounces. It contains no chemicals and no moving parts, and requires no electricity or batteries. Pores within tubes inside the straw allow water to pass but prevent contaminants larger than 0.2 microns from flowing through. The LifeStraw filters up to 1,000 liters of contaminated water without iodine, chlorine or other chemicals.

First introduced in 2005, the LifeStraw was field tested by approximately 4.5 million people and used around the world under extreme conditions for humanitarian relief. Now available in the U.S., it has met EPA standards for water filtration and was a Time magazine invention of the year winner.

“In addition to providing clean drinking water no matter where one is, the LifeStraw gives peace of mind,” said Baler, Partner at 4Patriots LLC, which provides products that help people become more self-reliant and independent. “When a crisis occurs, people will have clean drinking water, even if all the surrounding water is contaminated. With the LifeStraw, people can be prepared no matter what happens.”

Patriot Headquarters publishes articles, videos and news to help people become more self-reliant and independent from government and big business.
