Rainwater
Catchment Systems
Harvest The Sky advocates
harvesting rainwater from rooftops and using the water for irrigation
or other uses. This is called rainwater harvesting or rainwater
catchment. This is one way to reduce the amount of stormwater generated
from buildings and directed to fragile creek or river ecosystems. An
added benefit of rainwater harvesting is that it both reduces the
stormwater reaching the nearest water body, and it also provides free
water for use on site. Rainwater harvesting saves the environment and
it saves you money too.
The City of Portland's
Clean Rivers Reward Program will give you a reduction in your
stormwater fee if you mitigate your stormwater on site. One way
to do this is through rainwater catchment.
Vegetable
Oil Conversion
Harvest
The Sky also advocates the use of vegetable oil as an alternative fuel
source for diesel vehicles. The company vehicle, a VW Vanagon,
runs on such a
system. For more information
about vegetable oil as a fuel source click on this link.
