Water has Memory. Eawag: Water and Sanitation in Developing Countries: Sandec Home. Sandec is the Department of Water and Sanitation in Developing Countries at the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology (Eawag).
Our mandate is to develop concepts and technologies which are adapted to the various physical and socio-economic conditions prevailing in developing countries, sustainably insuring populations’ access to improved water and sanitation.Our work in five research fields takes place in close collaboration with international and local organisations. These collaborations contribute to increasing research capacity and professional expertise in partner countries.

Monitoring information of environmental radioactivity level. Google launches Data Explorer. Google Public Data Explorer, a new powerful visualization tool that lets you explore, visualize and share data in a “Gapminder-like” manner, was launched by Google earlier this week.
Check out Google Data Explorer Population without access to improved water source The new tool lets you explore data from a number of data providers such as World Bank, EuroStat, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statisitics and U.S. Census Bureau through “Bubble-charts”, maps, bar- or line charts, that you can share on your blog, web page or other media. Three years ago, Google acquired Trendalyzer – the technology behind Gapminder World – from Gapminder. The new Public Data Explorer is still a Google Labs-project, which means that it is till work in progress. More examples of what you can do: Unemployment (total and in per cent) in the US.

Salisbury Street, Raleigh, NC 27604, and WILSON, Nathaniel C., Division of Water Resources, North Carolina Department of Environ and Nat Rscs, 1611 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699 We use time domain electromagnetic (TDEM) soundings to monitor ground water conditions beneath the coastal plain in eastern North Carolina, USA. The TDEM method measures the earth's response to an induced electromagnetic field. The resulting signal is converted to apparent resistivity values, which can be directly correlated to borehole resistivity logs. TDEM soundings are used to map the interface between fresh and salt water within coastal aquifers, and estimate depth to basement when siting new monitoring wells.

Fluoride in Water Linked to Lower IQ in Children. Is this the end of water fluoridation?
NEW YORK, Dec. 21, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Exposure to fluoride may lower children's intelligence says a study pre-published in Environmental Health Perspectives, a publication of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (online December 17, 2010). Fluoride is added to 70% of U.S. public drinking water supplies. According to Paul Connett, Ph.D., director of the Fluoride Action Network, "This is the 24th study that has found this association, but this study is stronger than the rest because the authors have controlled for key confounding variables and in addition to correlating lowered IQ with levels of fluoride in the water, the authors found a correlation between lowered IQ and fluoride levels in children's blood.
This brings us closer to a cause and effect relationship between fluoride exposure and brain damage in children. " One of the earliest animal studies of fluoride's impact on the brain was published in the U.S. Www.news.admin.ch/NSBSubscriber/message/attachments/20770.pdf.

The UN adopted last 30 September 2010 an important resolution on the Human Right to Water.
This decision puts an end to controversies on the Right to Water. Through resolution A/HRC/15/L14 -1 passed yesterday, the U.N. Human Rights Council has achieved a landmark that clarifies the meaning of the Right to Drinking Water and Sanitation as well as the responsibilities of States and other parties towards right-holders. This is real progress towards making these Rights a reality for the people who need them.
The resolution clarifies three key points: Duties - States (public authorities) have the primary responsibility to ensure realisation of this Right, irrespective of the operators, internal or external, that they use to deliver it. Www.nwri-usa.org/pdfs/Vol 13, No 2 Spring 04 Briefings.pdf.
