"It’s mediaschmerz—a sadness about the news cycle and news media, which is distinct from the experience of our everyday life. I’m not sure if I think this is good or bad. It simply is. Individual hope and national despair are not contradictions." @DKThomp greeneracresvaluenetwork.wordpress.com/2022/06/02/dai…

As promised, continuing my discussion on #RWH, #rainwaterharvesting. Most queries were on how to get started, so i will start with rooftop rainwater harvesting which can be implemented for any house or apartment.

The mechanism is cheap, and build is fairly complex, but I will make it easy for you. It has 3 parts; collecting rainwater through down pipes, diverting them to the filter chamber and then to a sump or bore. 
Water Collection: All rooftops mostly already have gutter/ drain exits and down pipes. You just need to point them towards the filter chamber, so some plumbing work needed here.
Tips: Keep rooftop always clean. First rain should always be flushed out.

Sol 1: #RainWaterHarvesting - Chennai has urbanized pretty fast n percolation into ground is getting reduced. Building wise RWH is one,but we need RWH in public spaces like bus stands etc; Every year Corporates spend a lot of CSR which could be used

Sol 2: #WasteWaterReuse - Currently most of the sewage is going to the sea via Cooum,Adyar rivers, Buckingham canal or ending in the lakes. This water could be reused through decentralized sewage treatment and reuse system
