While drinking water full of debris is gross, it is also very unsanitary.

You simply do not know what is floating around in that water, especially if you collect it from a brackish body of water; this charcoal filtration device ensures your water, while not purified is free of most debris.

Filtering your water is almost as important as purifying it.

Apart from aesthetics and not drinking a bunch of junk, unfiltered water can contain debris that if given the choice, you would never put into your body.

This filtration method eliminates that aspect of creating potable drinking water; you still have to purify it, but this is the first step to making sure the water you drink is as pure as possible.
