Health Benefits of the Portable Microbiology Laboratory and Solar Water Pasteurization - An Interview with Dr. Bob Metcalf

Learn How the Portable Microbiology Laboratory Used With Solar Pasturization Taught to Local Communities Could Dramatically Reduce Hospitalizations in Developing Countries
Kirk Hamilton interviews Dr. Bob Metcalf microbiologist and Professor of Biological Sciences at California State University, Sacramento on his current worldwide work in spreading the use of the portable microbiology testing to allow local communities to test their water sources for impurities, and then use solar pasteurization create pure water supplies. Dr. Metcalf has traveled and continues to travel extensively around the world sharing his work. Dr. Metcalf is forming a nonprofit organization called the International Water and Health Alliances (IWHA, 4312 Vista Way, Davis, CA 95618, [email protected] available early 2011) whose goal is to help organizations and individuals learn about water testing and to provide materials for water testing using the portable microbiology laboratory to groups world wide. Information on solar cookers and solar water pasteurization products can be found at Solar Cookers International. Dr. Metcalf can be contacted at [email protected] or [email protected].
