recharge groundwater

Colonel Nandu Kumar’s rainwater harvesting technique uses pipes, a drum, sand, pebbles and a 8-foot deep pit.

Harvesting rainwater is a great way of lessening your carbon footprint and becoming self-sufficient in your water needs. Harvested water can tide you through dry periods and can be used for a variety of household needs.

What’s more? Water aerators installed on school taps reduces water wastage by 60 per cent!

A long-term solution to water scarcity, this low-maintenance system costs just Rs 7,000. And the best part? It doesn't just recharge the groundwater table, it also prevents water from stagnating in the locality! #ChennaiWaterCrisis #SaveWater #CitizenAction
