WORKING TOGETHER AS A GLOBAL COMMUNITY FOR LANDSCAPE
AND CLIMATE RESTORATION
Greetings from Jan Lambert, USA
OUR BEAUTIFUL CONNECTICUT RIVER FLOWS THROUGH A FERTILE VALLEY
Christmas Tree Farm
Connecticut River Valley
Connecticut River
New Hampshire
We also have many small towns and villages in the surrounding steep areas ,
as well as small farms and many trees.
We enjoy much natural beauty but we have problems with water management. Rain
falling on the streets in our towns commonly flows into storm drains
and then directly into our rivers. This is not good for the land or the rivers.
We have water pollution.
ERODED SOIL IS DEPOSITED IN THE
RIVER AS SEDIMENT, WHICH IS A
MAJOR POLLUTANT

In 2011, Vermont suffered a devastating flood which left many
homeless. This disaster has made the people aware of need for
better rainwater management.
There have been some successes at repairing the damage from the flood but
it is very expensive. Out of Slovakia and other nations has emerged a model
for reducing natural disasters through rainwater retention.
Extreme erosion from Hurricane Irene repaired.

humanity accelerates
runoff from land
more solar energy is
transformed into
sensible heat
draining of land can be
reversed through
comprehensive
rainwater conservation
renewal of small water
cycle over land can
temper extreme weather
events and ensure a
growth in water
reserves
