Dodici partners, 7 Paesi coinvolti e un solo obiettivo: definire le strategie operative per una gestione sostenibile delle risorse idriche alpine. A questo mira Waterwise, un progetto interreg co-finanziato dall'Unione Europea attraverso il programma Interreg – Alpine Space che vede in prima linea l'Università di Neuchâtel con i suoi ricercatori e la Valposchiavo che ha nella Val d'Ursé un sito unico a livello internazionale. È qui che i ricercatori si danno appuntamento per monitorare l'acqua sotto la superficie terrestre.Le attività condotte durante i tre anni del progetto, che ha preso il via a Poschiavo nelle scorse settimane, permetteranno di raccogliere una serie di dati sulle variabili climatiche, idrologiche e idrochimiche. L'analisi combinata di dati climatici, idrologici, chimici, ecologici e socioeconomici permetterà di stilare una valutazione della vulnerabilità presente e futura delle risorse idriche montane. Saranno poi messi a punto dei modelli predittivi che consentiranno di simulare l'evoluzione dei sistemi idrologici alpini.Il progetto si propone di creare una piattaforma informatica che possa essere utilizzata da amministrazioni, gestori e decisori per aumentare la conoscenza (attraverso protocolli standardizzati) e la gestione delle risorse in piccoli bacini alpini influenzati dalla criosfera. Questo strumento potrà migliorare la capacità di adattamento dei territori alpini al cambiamento climatico, e al conseguente cambiamento delle dinamiche idrologiche.

We've got a double bill this month to help you save more water in your garden over the summer. We're joined by Joe Osborne from the charity Waterwise – who tells us that in England alone, we face a potential water deficit of close to 5,000 million litres of water every day by 2050. She shares how crucial it's we conserve more of it in our homes and gardens. And climate change gardening guru Sally Morgan talks rainwater and grey water harvesting. She reveals ways to water plants more effectively, and the importance of soil health. “No dig is important because we don't want to disturb the fungi in the soil,” she says. “Most plants have a relationship with the mycorrhizal that extends beneath the plant – and it's this fungus network that does the watering for them, finding water in the soil.” Also in this episode… We'll be answering your questions about how to deal with box hedge moth, what to do about allotment-loving ants, and how to tackle chilies that are not hot.

Ondo InsurTech PLC (LSE: ONDO), the London-listed firm, has announced its new affiliate partnership with Waterwise, a prominent UK-based water efficiency non-governmental organisation. They intend to jointly tackle the growing water crisis in the UK, particularly through advocating for technologies that help prevent water leaks. In an official statement, Ondo declared that its alliance with Waterwise would focus on promoting judicious water usage. This includes leveraging tech solutions like Ondo's LeakBot, an intelligent device engineered to detect water leaks, thereby lowering both consumption and potential damage expenses for households. Waterwise and Ondo both see an opportunity to bring the insurance and water industries together to help fight the UK's emerging water crisis: ● The UK's water resources are under increasing pressure. We use twice as much water than we did 60 years ago in the UK. We are starting to experience widespread droughts and periodic water shortages, impacted also by climate change. ● UK wildlife is being impacted by the over-abstraction of local streams and rivers. ● 5-6% of GHG emissions are related to our use of water, so reducing household consumption of water is also key to enable the UK to get to net-zero. ● Waterwise believes the UK needs to save in the region of 1,000 Megalitres per day through water efficiency measures to meet future needs. ● Leaking toilets are a surprisingly big part of the problem. Waterwise believes 8% of toilets are leaking 215-400 litres/day (broadly consistent with LeakBot data). If these toilets didn't leak it would save 400 Megalitres of water per day - enough water to meet the needs of 2.8m people This is where LeakBot can really make a difference. LeakBot can reduce household leaks by 60% and the majority of the leakage in customers' homes that we fix is caused by leaky toilets. Full results of the Portsmouth Water pilot are available here. Craig Foster, the CEO of Ondo, remarked, "Merging the insurance and water industries to utilize LeakBot is a logical move as it cuts costs for both parties and collectively." Nathan Richardson, the Policy Head at Waterwise, stated, "With LeakBot, we envisage a scalable solution with the capacity to significantly benefit both the insurance and water sector, and potentially play a key role in reducing the UK's water demand." Waterwise's research indicates that preventing leaks in toilets alone could conserve enough water to satisfy the needs of 2.8 million people in the UK. By endorsing the widespread implementation of such technologies, Waterwise, often regarded as the UK's autonomous advocate for water efficiency, believes the country could make strides toward achieving a goal of saving 1,000 megalitres of water daily, mitigating environmental impacts and drought risk.

The Valley Wood Park Waterwise Bird Garden project, in its various phases, was created as a demonstration garden to show visitors alternatives to water hungry lawns. This park project is meant to inspire and educate our community about trees, shrubs, and flowers that can be grown in our high desert environment using half the water that lawns require. With our area experiencing less rainfall and higher temperatures we can benefit from learning how to create beautiful urban landscapes in a more sustainable way. Tom Stille designed and continues to expand this inspiring and delightful collection of waterwise gardens. Learn more about Tom, and the garden and then come and visit or join in volunteering.
