How Just a Drop Impacts
Less than 3% of the world’s water is fresh, and therefore drinkable. With 2.5% frozen in Antarctica, the Arctic and glaciers, the remaining 0.5% covers all of the world’s freshwater needs. Unfortunately, humans are polluting water faster than nature can recycle and purify water in rivers and lakes. With 703 million people lacking access to clean safe water, water conservation and proper utilisation is critical to universal access to clean water.
In Kenya, rains fall so quickly and in such a short space of time that most of the water runs off the land – rather than sinking into the ground and stored in the aquifer below. Our rainwater harvesting solutions in Kenya catch and store rainfall, providing a sustainable source of clean water for communities.
