Against the backdrop of soaring ocean temperatures and ominous forecasts for the 2024 hurricane season, disaster experts, technological innovators, and first responders converged at the heart of Miami Beach for the highly anticipated Disasters Expo USA on March 6th and 7th. With the urgency of past calamities still echoing through communities both local and global, this year’s expo served as a vital forum for unveiling life-saving innovations and forging crucial collaborations.
As the threat of extreme weather events loomed larger than ever, participants at the expo delved into a spectrum of pressing issues, from water scarcity to resilient infrastructure solutions. Among the standout exhibitors was Altitude Water, a trailblazing company hailing from Lauderdale Lakes, Florida, which showcased its groundbreaking Atmospheric Water Generators (AWGs). These state-of-the-art machines, proudly made in the USA, extract water from the atmosphere with unparalleled efficiency and cleanliness, offering a beacon of hope for disaster-stricken communities worldwide.

With their innovative technology powered by secure solar systems developed by New Use Energy, Altitude Water stands at the forefront of the battle against water-borne disasters.
As scientists sounded the alarm for potentially historic storm seasons, some even urging the creation of a new hurricane category- “6”, the need for innovative disaster response measures became increasingly urgent.

Attendees hailed from esteemed institutions including FEMA, NASA, NOAA, and the American Red Cross, highlighting the event’s broad appeal and global relevance.
In the face of mounting environmental challenges and the specter of increasingly severe disasters, the Disasters Expo USA 2024 emerged as a beacon of hope and innovation.
