Pioneering work in rainwater harvesting is often attributed to various cultures and individuals throughout history. However, modern advancements can be significantly credited to figures like Dr. S. S. S. K. Chandrasekaran in India, who promoted its use for sustainable water management. Additionally, organizations like the Rainwater Harvesting Association have helped to popularize and implement rainwater harvesting techniques globally. Various local and indigenous practices also play a crucial role in the development of this field.

Rain water that has been sitting out for a long time will develop various bacteria. The solution to this is boiling all your rain water before drinking it.

There are two types or rainwater haversting. Rooftop rainwater harvesting and drain harvesting. In rooftop rainwater harvesting, we use the water collected on rooftops instead of letting it go down the drain. We can also use water collected in dugout ponds, underground vessels etc. Drain harvesting involves letting water collected in roadside drains go straight to the ground. But this water has to be treated before use as it may contain bird faeces, germs and other pollutants.
