Just like how people end up living in the bitter, frostbitten cold, other people end up living in hot, arid regions. In the cold you need heat -- something easily remedied with proper clothing and heating equipment -- but in the heat, you need water, which is something you can't quite create out of man-made components. However, researchers have created a new special coating that, when applied to cotton, can suck water right out of the air.
