Recovering rainwater for re-use in watering the garden is a basic way of helping Nature. Many homeowners in the US & Canada install irrigation systems without considering the environmental cost of using fully treated drinking water for watering gardens when this is so costly and wasteful of energy & resources. We all want a beautiful Green garden, yes, but unless you live in Arizona, Colorado, Oklahoma & Utah (where it's illegal!) then for a small investment in a rainwater recovery system we can all help the environment and save water. Combine using recovered rainwater with garden plants & landscaping adapted to local weather & soil conditions. Choose irrigation systems designed with low impact materials & that deliver water to the garden in a low evaporation, low loss way & we make a winning choice for the environment - and let's face it , that means we all win.
