Water, everyone and everything needs it. I am about to ask you a question a very important question, would you rather have water filled with chemicals and many other unnatural things or would you have virgin water untouched and clean the way water is meant to be? Rain collection it has been around for hundreds of years but people still chose to drink tap water.
Water catchment is a brilliant creation that has been used for hundreds of years all around the world It is fantastic as when there are droughts the rain that had been saved from previous times can be use if water from taps can't be accessed, and rain catchment is so cheap paying for all of the pipes and taps and water systems is extremely expensive. I guess some people are just extremely fussy. Rain catchment is best for those in poverty or without fresh water, and it saves women and children a walk kilometers long, without water, and carrying loads of pots to fill to the nearest dirty stream, or river because they can get clean fresh water from their rain catchments.
We who live in cities and towns, those that find the cheap deals but are oblivious to the real deals, depend on imported water for daily survival because we want what the industries want for us to want. Our water and the water that grows our food travels hundreds of miles to reach us. It is powered by endless piles of coal, hydropower, and deadly nuclear power. The infrastructures that bring us this water costs billions of dollars in public tax money and household utility bills, and these infrastructures tend to destroy aquatic wildlife within the freshwater.
So obviously the better option would be to begin looking into fresh water rain catchments as part of our systems instead of just the systems we have now.
