Rainwater: Drain? or Collect?, That Is the Question

摘要

Rainwater that is collected on-site is clean and consumes less energy for treatment and transportation. We have neglected the importance of rainwater and made our water infrastructure for the purpose of draining rainwater as fast as possible. We need to change our paradigm of rainwater management, which is from "Drain" to "Collect" it. The rainwater harvesting and management has a big potential to solve global water problems and to adapt climate change.
