Statistics

The statistics on availability of water are not encouraging: there are 1.1 billion people in the world who do not have access to safe water, a number that will more than double by 2020. Fifty percent of the world's wetlands, which clean water and prevent flooding, have been destroyed. Seventy percent of water usage is used for agriculture, but about 50 percent of that is wasted from evaporation or inefficient use. California uses six and a half percent of its electricity to pump water. --Water is the new oil--a resource where demand continues to rise but supply is limited.


Rainwater Usage



Future

Water is one of the most critical resources that we need to survive. Unfortunately, drinking water shortages are a reality and will continue to become more common in the future, even for modern urban societies, which produce the need to establish alternative water supplies, like rain collecting.

Rainwater collecting is a simple way for everyone to conserve high quality water and work towards a sustainable future.

By harvesting rainwater, we can all bring about significant economic, social and environmental benefits.

As the average person uses around 248L of water per day, you could save up to 124L of fresh drinking water per day per person.
