Rainwater harvesting
Water is the most valuable gift of God to us .But we the so called best creation of mother earth , leaves no stone unturned to destroy this precious component of our planet . The amount of soft water is decreasing day by day as the level of ground water is shrinking down and down . Very soon this watery planet will become a dry one . Keeping this in view Odisha State Bharat Scouts and Guides has started its new project on the harvesting of rain water .Rain is the greatest source of soft water and due to our ignorance it becomes salty after mingling in the ocean. Instead it should be soaked into the ground. Therefore Odisha State Bharat Scouts and Guides tries to store it through various means as per the guidance of the scientists. As the first step we have tried to increase the level of ground water by draining the rain water into some pits(like small wells) dug properly which can easily be soaked up. Previously that water get wasted by flowing into different direction. This event was inaugurated on Dt. 29.05.2021 inside the State Headquarters premises. 05 no's of participants perform enthusiasticly. After the success of this experiment Odisha State Bharat Scouts & Guides is inspired enough to spread the process among the local association of different districts. Moreover the other procedures of rain water harvesting will be followed.
