ReThink 2007 - Class #4: Sustainable Water

Ecotrust/Jean Vollum Natural Capital Center
Portland, OR


Don Holmes and Sarah Murphy, Water Bureau; Aaron Blake and Christina Davis, ReWorks

Thrusday, April 12
6:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.

Portland receives most of its 36 annual inches of rain in the fall, winter and spring; leaving the Northwest with beautiful dry summers and wet winters. How will future global warming impacts and population increases affect Portland's drinking water system? What are practical and effective strategies to stretch the water supply throughout the summer? How are Portlanders integrating stormwater into their landscapes and homes? During this session participants will learn about Portland's drinking water system, about conservation strategies to extend the water supply, and hear a case study on rainwater harvesting and stormwater management.
