Water is an increasingly precious resource and a hot-button issue both nationally and globally. This book explains how to use water smartly and efficiently -- increasing supply, saving money, reducing septic-system wear and filling home and garden needs.

"Create an Oasis describes how to choose, build, and use a simple greywater system (some can be completed in an afternoon). Going deeper, it explains how to integrate efficient fixtures, user habits, plant selection and location, rainwater, greywater, and freshwater irrigation for your soil and site conditions." --Provided by publisher.
