The attention given to energy over the years has deflected attention away from water conservation and re-use as water scarcity globally is a more pressing problem than energy supply. However, energy conservation is still a big issue and it is beautiful to see a project that addresses both. Nice video Inhabitat! BY the way, does anyone know how much it cost to build and how all the projects were funded? I am glad the watershed won.
