There's more than one way to keep bodies of water clean. Your local town, village, or metropolis probably has some sort of water filtration system in place for keeping your drinking water supply clean. But there may be plenty of ponds, water storage tanks, or other bodies of standing water that are just sitting around attracting germs and mosquitoes.

The SolarBee is a solar powered contraption that helps keep water clean by helping it to circulate. Just plop the SolarBee in the middle of a pond, lake, wastewater collection point, or industrial water pool and it will go to work. Basically what the SolarBee does is grab water from the bottom of the pool and spread it over the top so that the body of water doesn't stagnate. And since the SolarBee is powered by its solar panels, you don't have to generate pollution to keep your water clean.
