Re: Green Help: Rain barrels and Water Collection

Well, I don't know as if there really is a right or wrong answer. It just depends on what you are passionate about. There seem to be unintended consequences for everything green.

Using potable water for watering lawns and flushing toilets in areas with water shortages is a real issue, so using a rain barrel in those areas would help tremendously. It would help even more if the greywater system was used on a community scale, not just in individual homes. I know that Florida is considering Legislation about this. Trying to get off of aquifers completely by 2012 or something.

I wish I had some sites to source, but I don't. Desalinazation is very costly, I know that much.

Water shortages are a very real issue in many areas of the United States and in areas that are experiencing unbelievable growth right now, they will see the shortages before a lot of other places do when their municipalities start taxing residents. :)

But, it sounds like both of you are passionate about one item or another. One for water and the other for energy. That's a good thing!
