Awesome Audiobook!
Wow! This audiobook is very informative. I knew absolutely nothing about rainwater harvesting, but the title caught my eye and I had to listen. Every chapter is informative and engaging, but Chapter 2, Uses of Harvested Rainwater was very fascinating. I had no idea that India had a particular area that was impoverished, and a farmer experienced severe drought. After a group of farmers utilized a rainwater harvest system, the area became an oasis which became a great harvest and became the home for millionaire farmers. If you want to know how to build and maintain your own rainwater harvesting system, then this audiobook is a must-listen!

Excellent guide
I've always been interested in making use of rainwater and home water-recycling systems in general, but didn't have the knowledge or confidence to think we could pull it of. This guide has been excellent and definitely has helped a lot! I've learned so much. Especially the chapters on water purifying and filtering done right have been useful, as that was my biggest fear, that it would be super hard to purify the water correctly and we wouldn't get it right. Will be referencing back to this book a lot!

New knowledge on good water
This is one of the new topic I am learning about. It is interesting how the author has taken a difficult topic and simplify it for easy reading and understanding so as to be able to follow through the process. I am thinking this is a project to embark on. I used to drink rainwater without understanding this process. I wished I listened to book a long time ago.
