Little question here..
would you bother to even collect water when there is reassured precipitation? (I do not know the extents of it though..).
oh, and thee is a river flowing through the propperty (neither do I know if it dries up in summer- sorry, vague!).
Maybe stupid question.. but my intuition is that if you are going to change the roof, you might aswell adapt it for water caption?
Have a direct and reliable source to bycicle washingmachine, gardens, feeding a chinampa system or a lake, or creating energy... simply having a secure water source that you actually have in storage..
Or..?
(Maybe its cause I'm used to lack of water so I just see it as gold..)
Thank you for your thoughts !!!
