So, What is Rainwater Runoff, and how it can benefit Mankind:
With the rapid Urbanization, the porous soil surface is declining. Thus, the natural absorption of rainwater by the soil has declined tremendously, resulting in drying up the natural aquifers. Rainwater Runoff is the Rainwater which falls on the hard surfaces, like the Roads, cemented sidewalks etc, and does not get absorbed by the soil, to fill the underground Aquifers. It either gets evaporated; or after creating a flooding, goes down the drains, rivers, and eventually to the oceans.
Well, to sum it up, the Water which we could have saved for future, is WASTED. The amount of this Wasted Rainwater Runoff is not small. It is in Trillions of Gallons a month, just in one state.
So, would it be beneficial if we can Save that Rainwater Runoff, and This is what we are going to do through our innovative method.
Now, let us talk about the Benefits of Harvesting Rainwater Runoff … it will help tremendously:
- Recharge the groundwater Aquifers, where the water is depleting at a rapid pace.
- The dried-up wells will start filling when aquifers fill up.
- Farmers can grow more crops and use their land at full potential.
- They don’t have to walk miles every day to get drinking water.
- Farmers will not have to starve and commit suicides.
- Farmers will not have to think about migrating to bigger cities for survival.
- We can have a Green Revolution, with Green Earth.
