SUMMARY:Passport to Nature: Rainwater Management
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Sherry Beauvais\, TLC’s Accounting Coordinator \nRain is grace; rain is the sky descending to the earth; without rain\, there would be no life. \nRainwater is a valuable commodity when we don’t get enough\, but concerning and sometimes damaging when we get too much in a short period of time. Managing rainwater in our urban environments can have a recognizable impact on our ecological systems; we can re-direct it from our stormwater networks\, contain and use it for domestic gardens and landscapes\, and return it to the earth as nature intended. Join Sherry to learn about techniques to manage this precious resource through various catchment\, storage\, and conveyance systems. \nPlease register for the virtual Passport to Nature events to receive links when videos become available! \n
