RainWater?
I remember in old days back in Europe where my grandmother would collect the rainwater (and over there rains a lot) and use to wash my hair and gave me a bath, every-time she could... It sounds crazy in terms of modern times. But it is true. I know now that she knew what she was doing!
According to PG Research Foundation , Ilinois: "Since ancient times, the only sources of natural water that are recognized as safe to drink are rain water and water from deep wells. The trick is that the rain water must be carefully handled so that it does not become contaminated. If it runs along the ground, it's anybody's guess what sort of microbes and toxic elements it will pick up. But if you put a clean bowl out in the rain to collect the rain water, there's no reason you can't drink the water from it." Richard E. Barrans Jr., Ph.D.
There is no essential reason why you can't drink rain water. I think the concern about drinking rain water has to do with the fact that in our non-pristine environment the raindrops may have picked up some contaminant on the way down from the clouds.
Today is a general qnowledge and awarnewss, about the value of the rainwater. Rainwater can be used for drinking, toilet flushing, laundry water and of course for irrigating your garden. Don't let your rainwater go to waste. Rainwater is a valuable natural resource that can be collected for household use. Using rainwater can reduce your water bills, provide a chlorine-free supply of fresh drinking water, and reduce community infrastructure costs.
HAPPY RAINY DAYS!
