And now they even have companies that manufacture solar cones (shaped like actual cones and turned upside down with a rim as a water shelf to catch the water). After the condensation has taken place, the other end of the cone has a plug in it and you merely turn the cone upside down and drink the condensated water. So it's a solar still and a drinking vessel in one!

Neato. People would be more than surprised at how much water lays beneath our arid deserts. The water in barrel cactus will keep you alive in the desert.
