To Prepare for Learning about Rainwater Harvesting

Abstract

Rainwater Harvesting involves the collection and storage of rainwater for various purposes before it infiltrates the aquifer. It has been utilized for supplying drinking water, watering livestock, irrigation, and other common water uses. Rainwater collected from rooftops, tents, and local establishments can significantly contribute to the accessibility of potable water. Stormwater harvesting involves collecting water from the ground, often from designated areas, for similar purposes. In some instances, rainwater might be the sole available or cost-effective water source for drinking. Rainwater harvesting systems can be constructed using simple methods and inexpensive local materials, proving to be effective in most inhabitable regions.
