Water conservation has become the need of the day.
The 2019 Chennai water crisis is an ongoing water crisis occurring in India, most notably in the city of Chennai in Tamil Nadu.
Chennai city officials declared that "Day Zero", or the day when almost no water is left, had been reached, as all the four main reservoirs supplying water to the city had run dry
Since the tap water has stopped running, some families have been relying on alternative water sources such as distant, unreliable public water pumps, and costly private water tankers.
Chennai is just one major example of how people are suffering in the modern day with almost all technology being available at their disposal
The idea of ground water recharging by harvesting rainwater is gaining importance in many cities.
Water conservation is the practice of using water efficiently to reduce unnecessary water usage.
Water conservation includes all the policies, strategies and activities to sustainably manage the natural resource of fresh water, to protect the hydrosphere, and to meet the current and future human demand.
Excess (Rains, Flooding)
Flood protection measures that seemed adequate in the past, often no longer serve their purpose.
TWaterTree aims in finding new and innovative solutions for flood protection in its educational programmes, research and institutional strengthening projects.
The innovations are developed together with local, regional, and national organizations, aiming at reducing risks and enhancing resilience.
