DESCRIPTION:If we want thriving landscapes, abundant food, strong communities, and 
 sustainable economies, we can start by treasuring the rain. Join Nate 
 Downey, author of the newly published book Harvest the Rain, for a talk as 
 he shares thoughts and strategies for taking advantage of rain, a precious 
 resource that falls free from the sky. For millennia, people relied on 
 rainwater harvesting to supply water for households, landscape, livestock, 
 and agricultural uses. Today, our planet's water shortage is a reality for 
 people worldwide, but actually enough precipitation falls annually to 
 provide ample water for everybody. We simply have to collect, store, 
 distribute, and reuse just a small percentage of that which falls from the 
 sky. Nate Downey shows how anyone can begin implementing rainwater 
 harvesting designs today. Harvest the Rain is low tech, designed for 
 everyone, everywhere, even for those with limited time and money. In 
 addition to cisterns, gray water, and earthworks, he shares important ways 
 to help protect your local watershed. \n\n
