uhm why is no one helping? Isn't this what it's for?
Lmao it's 2021, happy new year yall
1. Demand for water = increase. Pumping if water = increase. Quality of water = decrease
2. Increase: High Temp / Decrease: Permeable Rock, Drought
3. Benefit: Reduces water contamination, reduces money spent by municipalities / Drawbacks: Reduces regulation and accountability, reduces water for low income consumers
4. Layer of permeable rock, underground water storehouse, can be recharged
