Answer» Answer: Assuming that you are all along with a group of passengers marooned on an island in the middle of the ocean, there are several problems you might face. To begin with, if you do not have ENOUGH food supplies to last till a rescue OPERATION comes and rescues you, a lot of people might die of starvation. The easiest way to overcome this problem is if all the passengers can search the island for vegetation that might serve as a form of food. Similarly, hunting birds and animals will also serve as food for the passengers. Another major problem is water. Although you MAY be surrounded for miles by water, oceans are not a source of fresh water. The human system is built to drink only fresh water since the salinity content of ocean water is very high. To overcome this, a RUDIMENTARY filtration system can be set up using multiple pieces of cloth to sieve out the salt in the water. |
