Suraj9301212634: Rain water harvesting is the collection of rainwater into the man made resources or any natural resource like pond, lake, etc at the same place where it falls from rooftops or ground. Two main techniques of rainwater harvesting are storage for future use and recharge into the ground. It can be used for crop harvesting, gardening, toilets, etc. Following are the benefits of rainwater harvesting at individual or city-wide level:

It helps in reducing the water

Suraj9301212634: supply bills especially to the institutions.Rainwater recharged to the ground positively affects groundwater quality by diluting fluorides, nitrates and its salinity.It contains almost neutral pH and zero hardness which makes it more able to be used in homes, industries, institutions and other commercial establishments.It may reduce the stress of public water supply sources.Recharge of rainwater to the ground prevents a sea-water immersion into the fresh water bodies in the coastal areas

Suraj9301212634: helps in controlling urban flooding if people do rainwater harvesting from rooftops.It reduces water demands of people from the municipality thus lessens energy consumption too in distributing water all through the city.
