The project is called “10,000 Rain Gardens Program” and has led up to this moment to the realization of 7804 gardens born thanks to the collection of rainwater. This is a very large number of new gardens, already very close to the predetermined goal. Citizens were given the necessary information both for the collection of rainwater and for the construction of the gardens.
It is mainly about committing to collect any water that has remained stagnant following the rain on roofs, paths or verandas through systems of gutters and channels that allow to direct it towards the gardens in need of watering. The creation of the gardens themselves does not happen randomly.
At their base it is required to form gods layers of sand in order to slow down the path of rainwater towards rivers.
I Rain Gardens they can be created on the ground, in containers or on a roof. indicazioni for their realization are available online, through the website dedicated to the project, so that they can spread around the world. What do you say to give us a little thought?
