Harvesting stormwater is especially suitable for residential properties and offers several benefits. Homeowners can capture rainwater from rooftops using gutters and direct it into storage tanks or cisterns. This harvested water can then be used for various purposes, such as watering gardens, washing cars, or flushing toilets.
Implementing stormwater harvesting at the residential level not only promotes water conservation but also reduces reliance on municipal water supplies, leading to potential cost savings. Additionally, it contributes to community resilience by mitigating local flooding and fostering a culture of sustainable water management at the grassroots level.
