Jack Johnson and his rain barrel

For years I've considered Jack Johnson to be an inspirational man (to myself, to others, to the world). Mostly because his music and his attitude towards the world are great. But a few moments ago I got another reason.

I came across this video on vimeo.



It's such a simple idea. But imagine what would happen if everyone collected rain to water their gardens with?

I have a friend that does this too. Unfortunately we're not supposed to here in Colorado as much of the water supply is run-off. But my reasoning is we're putting it back into the ground anyway!

There are a lot of restrictions out here. We're not allowed to dry our clothes outside on a clothes line. The HOA frowns upon that. Eh.

Way to go Jack!

You go Jack. I went and got one after seeing how easy it was to hook up. Ours are coming from www.aqaubarrel.com
