Many a times I have witnessed with great concern the way people drink water from Water-Coolers with vertical Fountain. They drink directly from the fountain without using cups etc. There are millions of Water-Coolers all over the world in Air ports, Shopping centres, Bus and Train Terminals etc etc. After few trials I found that almost 30 % of the water is wasted when we use vertical fountain to drink. One person, on the average tries to drink 150 ML of water one time and 45 ML goes down the drain. If there are 10 Million Water-Coolers all over the world and 10 people drink from one Cooler a day, then we will be wasting 4.5 Million Liters of good quality drinking water every day. There are people dying without water. What can we do to prevent or minimise this abuse of precious water by affluent society? Your inventive ideas please.
