Harvesting and Managing Rainwater
Abstract: Rainfall harvesting, or RWH, is the practice of gathering and holding onto rainfall rather than allowing it to run off. This water is typically gathered from surfaces like rooftops and redirected into tanks, cisterns, wells, aquifers, or reservoirs that allow it to percolate and replenish groundwater. Additionally, dew and fog can be captured using nets or similar devices. Unlike stormwater harvesting, which collects runoff from various surfaces, RWH focuses on …

Laws of Thermodynamics Challenge Greenhouse-Gas and CLIMATE- change Hypotheses
Abstract: The greenhouse-gas hypothesis (GGH), i.e., CO2 is the cause of global warming by ~1K from ~1950-2023, is popularly believed to be established scientific truth. It is generally assumed that heat emissions from global fuel combustion are, by comparison, negligible. An application of the Hess-Gibbs 1st law of thermodynamics, however, shows that the enthalpy (H) output from yearly fossil fuel consumption is seven times greater than the H- increase of hypothetical …
