Wow! This audiobook is very informative. I knew absolutely nothing about rainwater harvesting, but the title caught my eye and I had to listen. Every chapter is informative and engaging, but Chapter 2, Uses of Harvested Rainwater was very fascinating. I had no idea that India had a particular area that was impoverished, and a farmer experienced severe drought. After a group of farmers utilized a rainwater harvest system, the area became an oasis which became a great harvest and became the home for millionaire farmers. If you want to know how to build and maintain your own rainwater harvesting system, then this audiobook is a must-listen!

Awesome Audiobook!

I've become much more environmentally conscious and got this book to see what else I could do to help me on this journey. It's incredible how much water we all waste and now I have the guide to help me do my bit with regards to rainwater harvesting.
The ideas here should really be implemented by local government, as the author explains the importance of rainwater harvesting and how is actually achievable by so many. Once you listen to this book you realise its not that complicated a process, even if you're on a tight budget.
If you're thinking of doing something like this, then I highly recommend this well researched book.

Great advice on RWH.

As someone who relocated from the US and now lives in the Caribbean and collects rainwater, I can assure you that this is something that every single homeowner not just in the US but around the world should consider doing. It is sad to see that people living in major US cities have no idea how dangerous it is that their only source of water is dependent on the water supplied by the government. This makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Although we are hooked up to the main water source where we live, the rainwater collection is our backup and believe me when I tell you, I don’t know what we would do without it. It is so damn frustrating when the water is cut off, and it happens when you need water most just to simply wash hands, wash fruits, wash dishes, flush the toilet, etc. The time is coming soon where the US government is going to shut down almost everything, and running water might be one of those things. Most American homeowners take it for granted that they will always have running water and are not prepared for anything like this to happen. This book is an authority on the subject of rainwater collection and I suggest you grab a copy ASAP if you are a homeowner and also encourage you to recommend this audiobook to other homeowners that you know. it is that important.

Recommended For Every Homeowner!
