DON'T LET THE RAIN GO DOWN THE DRAIN
USE IT TO SUSTAIN!
771 million people lack access to clean water. That's 1 in 10 people on the planet. Why not use a rainwater harvesting system to solve this issue?
DID YOU EVER FOCUS ON THIS?
IF WE DON'T SAVE WATER TODAY, WE WON'T HAVE IT TOMMOROW
Experts warn of a looming water crisis, with demand potentially exceeding fresh water supply by 40% within this decade. This alarming prediction comes ahead of a key UN water summit. Johan Rockstrom, from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and the Global Commission on the Economics of Water, highlights the world’s neglect of water resources as a pathway to disaster.
WHY RAINWATER HARVESTING
A different approach, using an innovative method of save water.
Rainwater harvesting is a way to reduce water scarcity. For each square metre of area, we can collect about 1,000 litres of water per year. A house of 200 square metres area can conserve 2 lakh litres of water every year. It collects and stores rainwater for different uses. It saves water, money, and the environment. It also helps cities cope with climate change by recharging groundwater, preventing flooding, and providing water in dry areas.
