Hi Lovely friends,
As we are all aware, the
worsening of global warming has been substantially attributed to weather
change. As a result, we have flash floods and abrupt drought more frequently
than what we have seen before. Therefore, it is time for us to unite as One
Force to address this critical issue handsomely and wholesomely. Sad to say
that without any drastic action, we will not improve the current status.
Although I am living in
the tropical area with relatively high average rainfall, there is no exclusion
to these impacts. As such, we constantly explore means to rectify this adverse
situation, directly and indirectly. As a matter of fact, global warming likely
cause changes in the rainfall patterns. It will bring shorter but heavier
bursts of rain that had caused flash floods and soil erosion in certain areas
especially areas without adequate drainage systems.
No doubts, certain areas
in Malaysia have recorded a remarkable increase of rainfall in the last five
years. Both the commercial and household water consumption has also been increasing
steadily for the last century. Naturally, the usage of water is direct
proportionate to the increase of climate warmth.
Hence, numerous of new
ways of reducing, reusing and retaining rain water have been discovered over
the years in order for us to reduce or eliminate occasional water rationing
exercise as well as considerable price increase by the municipal water
supplier. This is because we are no longer have such a luxury of consuming
endless supply of water despite of having a relative higher average rainfall
per year than most parts of the world.
This offers an
opportunity for rainwater harvesting and recycling to play a significant role.
Their benefits are numerous and not only limited to the financial aspect. At
the same time, they also help towards building a sustainable future growth.
Append below are other
benefits of rainwater harvesting and recycling for your consideration and
action:-
a) They are also provide water for non-consumption
purpose, such as flushing toilets, washing laundry, watering the garden and
washing cars. Hence, reducing water bills.
b) They can also serve as an alternative water supply during water supply rationing or water supply interruption. This offers great opportunity for those areas with such a high interruption.
c) They serve to reduce or mitigate the possibility of flash flood.
d) It is excellent for watering the garden and filling ponds since it is chlorine free.
Last, but not least, it will enhance the value of the property with such system. Please feel free to add to the above list which we may have missed out and not thought of.
Thank you in advance for your kind participation.
With the above, we trust
it is worth our effort and time to implement this effective measure to cushion
this adverse effect to CERTAIAN extent. Let us start greening the environment to show
our care and love to this planet.
If we don't, who else
will do it. Please spread this article to others so that they also can take
part in it.
Thanks
