Best Time to Adopt Rain Water Harvesting is now

Water, water, everywhere; not a single drop to drink. We have all heard of this saying somewhere or other. According to research by UNICEF, half of the global population will face water scarcity challenges by 2025. That’s not too far; we’re almost there. India, being a highly populated country, will obviously be at the forefront of this insurmountable challenge. Also, India being an agricultural land, the paucity of water will not only deprive us of quenching our thirst daily, but it’ll also leave a permanent impact on the economy, which is highly dependent on agriculture and allied activities.

The water tables are falling rapidly due to excessive depletion of the natural resources by humans, who either didn’t manifest this situation or underestimated nature's immense power.

This is where our rain water harvesting company in Gurgaon comes in as a solution. On an average, India receives almost 3000 bcm of rainfall every year. Due to a lack of awareness and the absence of investment & infrastructure, only 8% of this water gets harvested for use, while the remaining 92% is wasted. As per the Asian Development Research Institute, "India's total annual utilisable water resources are 1123 bcm (690 bcm surface water + 433 bcm ground water). Being an agrarian country, irrigation is by far the largest user of India’s water reserve, with hooping usage accounting for 78% of the total water reserve, followed by the domestic sector (6%) and the industrial sector (5%) (Press Information Bureau 2013). Groundwater is an important source for irrigation as well as for domestic and industrial usage. It is also a major source of drinking water in urban and rural India. 45% of total irrigation and 80% of domestic water come from groundwater reserves." These stats are scary, but we can help you tackle them with ease. We at Retas Water Solution have an extraordinary idea that can help you and everyone around us with water harvesting. After all, we don’t inherit the resources from our forefathers; we borrow them from our children, and it is and should be our priority to make sure that this non-fungible planet stays intact for another million, trillion and gazillion years!
