So anything that comes out of there is the fast priority will pay a school fee for a girl.And this girl will believe if she goes to school she can bring back to the village and give it back to the village.

And the other challenge is also to be approved by the government to be able to get an organizationto drill the boreholes.And, as we don't have our own company that drills the well, we have to find out the companies that are really experienced-- there are a lot of shady work

Like in Nairobi, the groundwater levels for this have dropped tremendously because everybody was drilling a wild borehole.And people were drilling boreholes for irrigation purposes, but went into what's called the ice in the salt layers.So after awhile the fields become unusable.

I swear, it’s under there!It’s called the Kola Superdeep Borehole.You can find it in the frigid ground on the northwest tip of Russia.

be turned around into loans and funding of businesses.So rather than funding the borehole as a donation, which you have to do in the beginning to incubate the whole thing, long term, fundingother boreholes and infrastructure as a loan, which is payable back so which gives the community more power to say what I want to do with the money

So it's something that eventually in the future we will work, depending on how much income we'll get from getting the borehole.If it is enough to sustain the borehole, pay the school fees for a certain number of girls, and then the remainingwe can ask the women to do what they want with the money.

I think that is enough for us.And I think when you're also constructing the borehole, we also need people to come and help volunteer and do something

So drawing that water from the river, it will take a lot of resources, and cleaning it, and trying to purify the water will take a lot of resources.So the best thing to do is the boreholes.Thank you. And thank you very much.

We’ve never journeyed beyond it— but not for lack of trying.In fact, before the Kola Superdeep Borehole, there was… Project Mohole.Let’s dig a little deeper… In the late 1950s, a ragtag gang of scientists known as the American Miscellaneous Society hatched an ambitious plan:

So my job is to connect the other five billion.Big theme is about shared infrastructure, like a borehole or a well, is definitely something that I would consider a shared infrastructure.I'm what I would call a business shark.

just every NGO or every farmer or everybody coming up and just digging a borehole.And there are other areas where 120 meters is not a wild borehole, that's difficult to do.But you have other areas where the groundwater levels are much lower, and you don't want a scenario

where the cotton fiber was turned using the machines into the textiles, which were then taken back down to Africa.These aren't geologists. They're not digging boreholes going, hm, well, this is 60 million years old.

that you can find everywhere.So we have to be very keen on looking for the best company that can drill the boreholes.And we just pay them, they bring all the material that we need.

From seismic wave measurements, geologists can take “x-rays” of the Earth, piecing together the properties of its layers.And even though we still haven’t made it to the mantle, Project Mohole and the Kola Superdeep Borehole weren’t failures.They kicked off techniques that later scientists have used to discover more about Earth’s insides and past.

So Haney creates this incredibly complex or this incredible experimental setup, where he has a series of rods thatare about 20 inches long, about an inch thick, and have a 1/2 inch borehole that goes through.So he's basically building these pipes.

When it was working, it was five times slower than the old Afridev hand pump that was designed in 1934 with a lot of community consultation.Right? And worst of all, when they installed, they installed it over the only existing borehole that these villages had.So when it broke down, they literally had no water.

And this girl will believe if she goes to school she can bring back to the village and give it back to the village.So it's something that eventually in the future we will work, depending on how much income we'll get from getting the borehole.If it is enough to sustain the borehole, pay the school fees for a certain number of girls, and then the remaining

Correct. And that's very encouraging to see that you want to keep the culture.That you're saying , no, no, no, the first thing we want to do is once we have the borehole and once we have internet,we are going to dress in designer jeans and just want to sit and write applications for mobile phones.

especially affluent people within the city.Like in Nairobi, the groundwater levels for this have dropped tremendously because everybody was drilling a wild borehole.And people were drilling boreholes for irrigation purposes, but went into what's called the ice in the salt layers.

And we just pay them, they bring all the material that we need.Thank you. Maybe I can add, there were a lot of challenges in people digging wild boreholes.especially affluent people within the city.
