      <title>Better Storm Drain Filters to Make the World a Better Place</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Do you know what would make the world a better place? Better storm drain filters! While this wouldn&amp;#8217;t be as dramatic as solving &lt;span class="caps"&gt;AIDS&lt;/span&gt; or world hunger, clogged storm drains cause a surprising amount of damage. This point was made evident by the recent storms in California where clogged drains caused many road closures, flooding and water damage. We live in an advanced society where technology has solved many problems &amp;#8211; why can&amp;#8217;t we develop better storm drain filters that are able to filter out leaves and debris and still allow the water to flow through? Solving a simple problem like this would greatly reduce the economic storm damage in urban areas and make the world a better place.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
