How to use: The patented LifeStraw is a small tube with specialized filters inside. Place one end in unfiltered water (a glass, water bottle, river, or puddle!), and suck the resulting clean water up through the top. Anyone who can use a drinking straw can easily use a LifeStraw. When the filter has been used for 1000 liters or 264 gallons, it will become plugged and water will not flow through it any longer. If it plugs while drinking, blow back into it to clear the filter, then resume drinking. Esquire called it the Innovation of the Year. And Forbes noted that LifeStraw is one of the ten things that will change the way we live.
