Developing and implementing water run-off systems
Green roofs, reusing recycled grey water, and developing and implementing water runoff systems.
I cast my vote for the top three concepts I thought were the most effective. The three concepts were green roofing, reuse of recycled grey water, and creation and implementation of water runoff schemes. Green roofing was the first suggestion I voted for because there are several reasons why someone might wish to explore green roofs for the home and the community. Foremost, adding a green roof lessens the strain on nearby sewage systems and the requirement to manage any accumulated runoff. Green roofs also reduce the entire heat generated by the structures. Public facilities like recreation facilities can be created atop green roofs to benefit the community. Moreover, green roofs can lessen the noise level that enters the house by forming a natural barrier (Bensel & Carbone, 2020). Green roofs enable fire suppression, which helps to safeguard the home, and a person can save money by using less energy to heat the house.
The reuse of recycled grey water was the second concept I selected. Increasing the reuse of grey water can assist in increasing adaptability to the water supply insecurities brought on by climate change. Toilet flushing, gardening, and non-potable purposes are typical examples of when the reuse of recycled greywater recycling is applied (Bensel & Carbone, 2020). The following are some possible ecological advantages of reusing greywater: fewer people taking freshwater out of aquifers and rivers, reduced environmental damage from facilities for water treatment and septic tanks, less chemical contamination from water treatment, and reduced power use and recharging groundwater and recovering nutrients (Bensel & Carbone, 2020).
The last concept I voted for was the creation and implementation of water runoff schemes. Establishing water runoff is crucial because it not only keeps lakes and rivers replenished with water but also erodes the soil, altering the landscape. Moreover, the creation of runoff structures can serve as transient storage locations and are intended to absorb runoff for peak discharges (Castejón-Porcel et al., 2018). Therefore, developing these schemes helps in flood prevention, preservation of water resources, and protection of people’s health.

Question
Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum, read Chapters 5 and 6 in your course textbook. I voted for garden roof, reuse grey water, Develop and implement water run-off systems
Now that you have cast your votes for the Arzaville Water Management Plan, it is time to explain your choices to the class. Please make a post of at least 150 words in which you.
Identify (briefly) the plan elements on which you voted.
Explain why you selected each one.
Each of the elements with an explanation is worth .5 points for a total of 1.5 points.
Note: You will not be able to view others’ posts until you have made your own. At the end of the week, the instructor will post the winning Arzaville Water Management Plan, which will include the top three ideas selected by the class. In cases where two action items are judged by the instructor to be nearly identical, the instructor reserves the right to combine the ideas into a single one (and add votes together) in order to determine the winning ideas. This plan will be posted in the Announcements area of the classroom.
