With rising population and the uncertainty of our climate patterns, the stress on our local water resources is only going to become greater. Taking a long-term view on the situation may be the only way for us to alleviate this stress. In this presentation, we will examine two methods that can reduce the stress on our local water resources. Incorporating auxiliary water supply opportunities into our landscapes, we can reduce our demand for municipal water, allowing our homes and properties to become more self-sufficient. Integrating green stormwater management or low impact development techniques into our landscapes, we lessen the potential negative affect that stormwater runoff has on our local communities while creating better landscapes.
