Explore the groundbreaking world of AC water recycling, where advanced technology merges with environmental awareness to reshape our water conservation practices. This enlightening book guides you through an enthralling journey, unveiling the untapped potential of air conditioning units in homes and businesses and addressing the critical issue of water scarcity. Within these pages, you'll uncover the surprising capacity of home AC units to generate water alongside the impressive output of commercial AC systems daily and even hourly. Additionally, you'll gain insight into the distressing waste of millions of gallons of water in states facing severe shortages: California, Texas, Arizona, and Nevada. In regions like these, where water wastage is prevalent, this innovative approach to water generation could be the game-changer we need. We've found a practical solution to mitigate water scarcity in these areas by harnessing the condensate water produced by air conditioners. This book reveals the untapped potential of AC water recycling, emphasizing how minor adjustments and heightened awareness can significantly contribute to water conservation efforts. Embrace the promise of air conditioning units as a sustainable answer to water scarcity as we collectively work towards a greener and more water-abundant future.

This book preserves and scientifically interprets the African foreknowledge on water resources management. It offers insight into the relevance of the traditional knowledge and practices to modern approaches on sustainable water management. The African continent has partially preserved its natural habitat for centuries. In this book, this knowledge is combined with the current scientific understanding. The traditional practices are categorized as: i) water harvesting, ii) water transportation, iii) water storage and conservation, iv) water treatments, v) myths and folk stories about water management or conservation, vi) water resource management systems, and vii) soil–water–forest conservation/management systems sub-topics. The findings presented here are in line with SDG 6, which aims at ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all by the year 2030.

Adverse impacts of climate change are evident in many regions of the world and are likely to get worse in the future. Ever increasing urbanisation is also adding to the magnitude of severity in regards to both quantity and quality. Urban water resources and components of water cycles are likely to be affected severely. To minimise consequences on world water resources, a sustainable water resources management strategy is inevitable. Water conservation in general is a salient part of sustainable water resources management. This book describes several water conservation and recycling options, practices, consequences and future implications showing case studies in different countries around the world. Among all the water recycling options, stormwater and greywater recycling is easily achievable. Initial chapters of the book deal with stormwater harvesting options through rainwater tanks in household scale; design optimisation, and water savings and reliability of such systems around different cities of the world. A review of traditional design practice and future efficient design methodology is also outlined. Also, a scientific approach for selecting an appropriate stormwater system at the authority/institutional level has been proposed. Later chapters describe public acceptance, reuse potentials and benefits of greywater recycling options. In addition, non-structural measures (water pricing and restrictions on water usage) of water conservation have been investigated through a case study. Moving downward, to look at water quality issues, impacts of land-use and land-cover changes on lake water conservation have been presented. Eventually, to be able achieve the final goal, real-life challenges in the transition towards adaptive water governance have been presented with a case study in the USA.

In communities all around the world, water supplies are coming under increasing pressure as population growth, climate change, pollution, and changes in land use affect water quantity and quality. To address existing and anticipated water shortages, many communities are working to increase water conservation and are seeking alternative sources of water. Water reuse- the sue of treated wastewater, or "reclaimed" water, for beneficial purposes such as drinking, irrigation, or industrial uses- is one option that has helped some communities significantly expand their water supplies. Understanding Water Reuse summarizes the main findings of the National Research Council report Water Reuse: Expanding the Nation's Water Supply Through Reuse of Municipal Wastewater. The report provides an overview of the options and outlook for water reuse in the United States, discusses water treatment technologies and potential uses of reclaimed water, and presents a new analysis that compares the risks of drinking reclaimed water to those of drinking water from traditional sources.

Water is the origin of our life and the most commonly encountered resource in our daily lives. However, it is rare to find someone who fully understands its importance and functions, making it somewhat 'mysterious.' As a human author (Byung Kee Park), he embarked on the challenge of writing a book about water despite being relatively unfamiliar with the subject. Generative AIs gave him the courage to do so. ChatGPT, New Bing, Google Bard, and others were my assistants for this writing. After encountering astonishing spring water recently, he, as the human author, has developed a great interest in drinking water and has been actively spreading knowledge about it, much like the Samaritan woman who met Jesus at the well. This book is the result of enjoyable conversations between the human author and Generative AIs, discussing the importance of water, its types, cultural aspects, and the future of water, coinciding with World Water Day (March 22nd). The purpose of this book is to assist readers in gaining new perspectives and understanding about water. As the human author concluded this book, both the human author and Generative AIs would have undoubtedly increased their understanding of water. In this book, the author, along with Generative AIs, examines the role of water in human society and the Earth, and strives to explain the characteristics of water and its various health benefits in an accessible manner. Furthermore, they shed light on the cultural impact of water on human life and discuss the importance of water resource management. Through this book, readers will come to realize that water is not just a simple essential item for daily life, but a remarkable gift to humanity. Furthermore, through various stories related to water, readers will gain new knowledge and insights. They will also develop a more careful and responsible approach to using and managing water in their everyday lives. This book aims to serve as a reminder of the value and importance of water, especially in light of World Water Day (March 22nd), and hopes to contribute, even in a small way, to fostering our collective interest and efforts for a sustainable future. Byung Kee Park, the human author, who conducted a personal experiment with bottled water in the past month, shares his personal experiences and results with readers in the Chapter 5 of this book. The experiment, driven by the author's curiosity about the impact of water on his health, involved daily consumption of at least two bottles of Koriwaters's spring water, while observing changes in his health. Although this is a personal account based on experiences not scientifically proven, the author shares remarkable results in this book, such as the almost complete absence of gout symptoms that had plagued him for 20 years during the one-month experiment. Additionally, along with the story of Jun Jin-Chul, the representative of Koriwaters spring water factory in Wonju, Gangwon Province, the book discusses the various health benefits provided by water. The author hails from three prestigious institutions: UCLA, Fuller Seminary, and Bakke Graduate University.
