Keep doing such kind of podcast sir....because it will help us to face questions regarding how to save water.....such kind of podcast have the ability to create an affect to the ignited minds ❤
A truly enriching discussion. Came here from the Instagram reel. Love the innovation Uravu Labs came up with and certainly will lift burdens away from groundwater. However, the concern remains if this technology isn't used responsibly and is not regulated. Not a criticism but just a thought we need to reflect on. We should prevent from over-exploitation impact on nature even if the atmosphere is abundant in water. Perhaps strict policies on which industries can use it, and the no. of industries that can use it should also be considered. Otherwise, it will go from becoming a sustainable option to a true disaster (extreme rainfall pattern change, ionic charges etc). History has taught this, hope Uravu labs will pay heed to this. All the best!

Excellent exposition by 3 experts on water. While talking about water guzzling crops, mr.viswanath omitted to mention rice/paddy. Cane and cotton are not open for reduction in acreage sown. But, rice can be replaced in a big way by millets which are equal to or better than rice in nutrition and ease of growing. With fraction of water demand.
Water Crisis: Great discussion with- 3 Eminents : - 1. Hemant 2. VISHWANATH 3. Ganesh Shankar Need to keep it simple - Rain and waste water to be reused. - At Urbans, catch rain and processed water at each WARD.. - Nallahs are a Boon. Keep local use, for homes for parks gardens We deal with Rurals separately .Any takes, can we do them as practices for Urbans .. . wll wshs..

Wonderful, very very useful podcast! Wish this is published in print and relevant links and literature are cited. Huge respect to Viswanath Sir and the whole Better India organization for the amazing work you are doing! ... one additional point (not sure if I missed): increasing the green coverage at every level could also ensure aquifer recharge (drought prevention) and flood protection. Green roof and vertical garden could ensure the overall environmental quality!...Thank you so much. Please put up the whole content in text format as well and give the link here. Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
I would suggest our engineers to think more about village farming system. How to reduce flood irrigation and encourage dripp irrigation. I believe lot of water can be saved .
We will never be able solve water crisis until we solve our population growth, it’s exploding. This is the fundamental issue and all other issues are secondary and ofcourse should be assessed as well.
Best solution is to make one soak pit for ever one acre land... So all rain water stored in ground aquifers. So high ground water level one higer level area will help near by lower area with live water aquifers... So please pramote on your channel and appeal people n specially farmers...
Desalination plants have a major drawback. The salt disposal. Rainwater harvesting needs to be done. Mostly lack of awareness, cost might be reasons for not doing rainwater harvesting.
*Remember that among a few scientists we will find Business people acting like a scientist and they have a purpose in their life and that is to sell whatever they have and make. So beware of such people while solving problems which are actually man made and not caused by nature.*
Domestic effluent generated from each city can be easily processed and recycled back to the same city for non-potable purposes. Solutions are known but unfortunately lack of timely implementation is the issue.
I feel our education system should include awareness on how kids should appreciate the natural resources like forest, greenery, animals, birds and water resources. Why these are important and how we should protect the natural resources to survive. @Lallantop @aajtak @indiatvnews
joining rivers is not at all a solution.We must remember that every river is a unique habitat for the aquatic life present in it.Joining rivers will destroy all the rivers.It is better to plan flood water diversion and storage in a better manner. Finally as one comment states: over population is the main problem in our country. Human is the most important to the detriment of all other life on this planet!
Mr. Vishwanath has given a good picture of the realities and his views regarding a macro all aspect management policy is the only solution. Tapping water from moisture will never reach the demand levels needed in our country. A simple fact that is overlooked is that we in india use water very freely for all our needs, cooking,bathing washing and toilet. Some nations believe in the use of paper,which we believe is not sanitary therefore we overuse water in every way. The only solution is to recycle water by creating water holding basins, fed by water produced by effective treatment systems, stanbilise the water with aquatic life and plants and allow the water to percolate back into the ground. There are so many waste water treatment technologies in use,but the main stumbling block is the commitment to operate them in a responsible manner. Also once treated the reuse requirement doesnt match the volume of treated water produced. Toilet flushing and greening use less than 30% of the water produced going upto about 50% at the most. This means there should be a feasible means of routing the excess water to ponds and water bodies created nearby,where the treated water can stabilise and percolate into the ground. To achieve a safe water source in this manner, it is essential that treatment systems are operated effectively and with very strict mandates on quality,with the required monitoring to ensure the required quality. This entire exercise can very easily defeated by corruption and lack of responsibility on the part of the local authorities. It is better to depend on sustainability rather then only on cutting edge technology.
Yes, indeed! Rain water harvesting Inside the city right under the cricket and football grounds and on the outskirts where 500 to 1000 acres! Learn from the city of Tokyo where flood waters are temporarily stored!
Rightly said! We need to make efforts to save as much water as we can and use it wisely. Please do share this episode with others to spread more awareness.
Store rain water as much as you cab, make small canals without concrete bases to charge the ground water table. Stop eating sugar and rice as rice and sugarcane farming directly depleting ground water.
Slow but sure method of solving water crisis is by planting deep rooted tress along the contours. This should be complimented by potable water conservation and waste water treatment and re-use.
right pricing of with rates being increases on graded fashion as per quantity of water consumption along with using prepaid water metering like being done in electricity & recycling of water to making fresh water is the way forward.
Great discussion and view points. One critical thing that is lacking in our Water domain, is the availability of comprehensive reliable and validated data. It may exist in bits and pieces but neither reliable nor comprehensive. We must avoid knee jerk reactions and putting out fires each time a water crisis occurs. The absence of reliable up-to-date data, will only result in a slipshod approach towards a critical issue such as formulating long term sustainable strategies/policies in water. . No proper validated hydrological data, estimate of ground water (quantified and reported against time eg months) exists to enable us to make reliable estimates of demands vs supply and know exactly where we stand in terms of total quantum of water resource ie Ground + Surface water. Secondly, every bore well that is drilled in the state must be mandated to log the cores by geotechnical engineers to develop a geotechnical map of the layers below the ground level over large geographic areas. Bore logs must be reported and stored in a centralised data base including a map with all the parameters eg. location, strata, yield etc. This will help accurately estimate the ground water storage across the geography during different seasons, properly map the ground water movements and build system of channels/lakes/canals that will greatly enhance the ground water storage.
Although my english is excellent and so would be most of the listeners of this podcast, I think the common man will be better served if this podcasts were in Hindi or their vernacular language. Not sure if it is possible but give it a thought
Who will explain this basic reality to the agriculture sector? Especially as a bunch of agrerians refused to listen to any rational argument to stop cultivating wheat and rice. It's very unfair for the rest of the population. Farm Policy needs to be reworked to save water and prevent scarcity.
On desalination - within context of vacuum distillation of seawater(or any 'dirty' water), energy needed to boil water is right there all around us ! Vacuum needed to boil or evaporate this warm water is easy to achieve and consumes little energy. It's a terribly sad irony that poor folks are reeling from and are short of water at the same time ! LTTD (Low Temperature Thermal Desalination), technology that produces copious freshwater at low cost, is another one. There's one off the coast of Chennai... likely more coming up.

I am just wondering why people are not thinking of converting salt water to drinking water, and also employing tanks for rain water harvesting
Desalination plants have a major drawback. The salt disposal. Rainwater harvesting needs to be done. Mostly lack of awareness, cost might be reasons for not doing rainwater harvesting.
