Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond, Volume 1, 2nd Edition: Guiding Principles to Welcome Rain into Your Life and Landscape is the first book in a three-volume guide that teaches you how to conceptualize, and design, and implement sustainable water-harvesting systems for your home, landscape, and community. The lessons in this award-winning volume will enable you to assess your on-site resources, give you a diverse array of strategies to maximize their potential, and empower you with guiding principles to create an integrated, multifunctional water-harvesting plan specific to your site and needs.

This revised and expanded second edition increases the potential for on-site harvests with more integrated tools and strategies for solar design, a primer on your water/energy/carbon connections, descriptions of water/erosion flow patterns and their water-harvesting response, and updated illustrations to show you how to do it all. Volume 1 helps bring your site to life, reduce your cost of living, become self-reliant, and create living air conditioners from vegetation, allowing you to grow beauty, food, and wildlife habitat. The stories of people who are successfully welcoming rain into their life and landscape will inspire you to do the same!
