Planting the Rain to Grow Food and Abundance
A free public talk by Brad Lancaster
Wednesday, February 24, 2010
Simms Auditorium on the campus of Albuquerque Academy
Time: 6:30 – 7:45 pm
Description:
Integrated water harvesting makes the most of our local water resources, by enhancing them instead of depleting them. Simultaneously, we can use that harvested water to grow food and passive-cooling shade, control erosion and floods, and create wildlife habitat and jobs. Water can be harvested at home, in the neighborhood, on farms and ranches, and community-wide. Brad’s dynamic talk will show you how, with numerous case studies from around the world, including creating oases out of wastelands in Africa and Arizona, and brewing rain beer in Atlanta.
