P—55 · REFLUX IT · Guadeloupe and beyond

One water problem.
Many technologies.

A 17-page study comparing low-energy capture, passive production, solar seawater desalination, portable backup, treatment, storage and measured recovery. Guadeloupe is the worked case; the technology choices and procurement method can be adapted to other places after local tests.

Explore the complete study and its options from household litres to a proposed 8,000-person emergency service, including the original GWS-1 hand-built solar still design and cutaway illustration.

P—54 · Local recycling and manufacturing · 9 slides

See where it goes.
Make what lasts.

A proposal for visible local workshops that identify suitable material, make useful products, and publish a checkable record of batches, sales, residues and transfers. Repair and reuse lead the route.

Explore the complete introduction, paper, pilot design and searchable materials inventory. Cost and carbon examples remain planning scenarios until a real pilot measures them.

P—48 · Rainwater presentation · 23 slides

Store what falls.
Ask what is allowed.

Rainwater: Climate Evidence, Useful Storage and Public Questions compares observed warming and rainfall variation with useful roof-water storage, practical arithmetic, current rules and questions for public bodies.

The storage sizes are examples. The presentation does not predict a particular UK drought or treat stored roof water as drinking water.
