As an UpLink - World Economic Forum Freshwater Aquapreneur reflecting on last week at UN Water Conference and New York Water Week - that was RainGrid's global coming out party. I think of myself as a thick-skinned, career freshwater advocate with more t…lnkd.in/efMxxbQY

Here is a primary example of civic infrastructure policy and budgeting that illustrates just how wrong the philosophy and practice of existing rainfall runoff infrastructure is for cities. Panama City, FL. is spending greater than…lnkd.in/evCsz7aR lnkd.in/eHMgRuxN

Fast Company, get your head out of the plastic greenwashing world. This is not sustainable in the least. At a time when everyone is screaming about plastics in the food chain all the way through the blood stream, this sends entirely the wrong signal. lnkd.in/ePCviqe2

It's wonderful gardeners love harvested rain. Nothing new in that. Now for the harsh reality. Death to rain harvesting. Traditional "rain harvesting" is a sop by civic stormwater managers to offload to homeowners the management of rainfall runoff for th…lnkd.in/egW_HiAE

So Southern Water's C-suite finally awakens to the sleeping giant of CSO overflows, and commits to NBS as their saviour. A bit late but better than never following the flame out of Ben Earl's valiant but futile efforts in 2016 to i…lnkd.in/es9B4grZ lnkd.in/eiuPYrSa

Kudos to Bobby Doshi for his amazing ai utility for groundwater mapping. Mary Conley Eggert's Global Water Works session set the stage of a constructive big tent approach to the challenge of bringing intelligent circular rain to Indian towns and cities as both…lnkd.in/ejpc7Gau

The Center for Watershed Protection 2023 National Watershed and Stormwater Conference is just around the corner. Looking forward to hearing the feedback on RainGrid, Inc.'s presentation about how intelligent retention and reuse des…lnkd.in/eBS8C2Y7 lnkd.in/etme2SrC

48 Hours before the kickoff of the CWP Conference presentation by ARGoN Systems' Specialist Samuel Collins! Sam has been the integral driver of the stormwater credit calculation process that identified how intelligent retention and reuse proptech wasn't…lnkd.in/eeFdyr8Q

I'm not one for conventional approaches to issues resolution, and so I don't tend towards the "conservation" side of the water agenda. That said, @peopleforwaterLauria's posts are always welcome additions to the water conversation.…lnkd.in/eetDHBVH lnkd.in/et7KhBPv

Positions like this don't come around that often. A fantastic team to join! lnkd.in/ejK4mMWg

We are NOT amused. Unless I'm reading this wrong or significant details have been omitted, and certainly the people at Current have lost their marbles, this is a hard NO! Jolliette, Illinois is outside of the great lakes basin, and this "deal" violates…lnkd.in/gebq2Jn4

Here is a great synopsis from RainGrid, Inc.'s fellow UpLink - World Economic Forum Freshwater Aquapreneur cohort member NatureDots, about the importance of water as a defining climate metric. This too often goes unreported because of our obsession with t…lnkd.in/eRp27pJc

I'm going to entitle my letter to the editor of the NEWYORKTIMES.COM, about how they missed the opportunity to profile the UpLink - World Economic Forum firms developing flood and drought mitigation for #insurers and #policy…lnkd.in/e2prTijT nyti.ms/41d6rCn

One of the biggest flaws in ESG is its undifferentiation of employees from their reality as decision-making, voting citizens. The worst case in point is the rank and file corporate t-shirt environmentalism foisted as a demonstration of corporate ESG. That…lnkd.in/ejqaciVE

It's important to differentiate a natural lake from a damned (sic) reservoir, and equally to differentiate between each of those water bodies the effects of climate change and water demand. Lakes Mead isn't a lake. Neither is Lake Powell. They are, in ord…lnkd.in/efzHrgtz

Yes, I am asking you to save the whales. I'm reposting this to my network of US colleagues to ask for their support. Please contact your congressional and Senate representatives to support this campaign for speed reduction in Right Whale habitat. Plea…lnkd.in/gVZ7usgX

My favourite topic in circular rainfall relates to the water energy nexus and how it applies to the conventional linear water infrastructure. Never mind supply, never mind climate adaptation, the world of water is pure energy based. Moving water is the la…lnkd.in/gWZyjvXH

So finally replaced the oil furnace in the Montreal house with an electric heat pump and a cool ecobee thermostat. Long overdue, and thanks to Natural Resources Canada | Ressources naturelles Canada for the #GreenerHomes Program support to make the transi…lnkd.in/de-ipc2k

To say the least, this slow motion train wreck is an illustration of the abject failure of California's towns and cities to take #residential #rain circularity seriously. This is largely a preventable tragedy for the homeowners a…lnkd.in/eb2vmg4p lnkd.in/eng4kwEy
