Collect, Store, Purify, and Drill for Water

This DIY guide shows how to collect, store, purify, and drill for water with 10 inexpensive projects, and provides practical conservation information.

Do-It-Yourself Sustainable Water Projects provides everything you need to know to create your own water projects - from collecting rainwater and air conditioner condensate to properly drilling and constructing pump systems. A list of manufacturers and other resources is included to help locate all the products used in the book. This practical guide also provides a basis for understanding the importance of water - the most precious resource - and how the lack of it affects different regions around the world. It also shows how an individual or company can help conserve water with very small changes.

  • Offers simple instructions for making 10 important projects with easy-to-find, inexpensive parts
  • Explains how to calculate your "water footprint" and how to adjust behavior to conserve water
  • Each chapter concludes with a list of resources - web sites, published texts, and vendors related to the topic of that chapter
  • Cites projects being constructed globally, particularly in the developing world
  • Includes ads and coupons from international manufacturers with discounts for their products
