Hydro-Local is our way of saying - using our local water resources in a beneficial & sustainable way (rainwater, greywater, stormwater). Living Hydro-Local and using renewable energy sources (the sun!) as much as possible for our energy needs will make our homes and cities more resilient in the face of water insecurity and climate change.
During this panel discussion and kickoff event we'll hear from organizations and programs you can connect with to start your hydro local living. We'll hear from groups offering education, a cooperative for solar installations, and small grant options as well as ways to engage with policy to make water harvesting more accessible in cities around Arizona.
