Singapore's efforts in rainwater harvesting and management

 

Here's an emoji-laden table summarizing Singapore's efforts in rainwater harvesting and management:

Topic πŸ“šDescription πŸ“Emoji Illustration 🌟
Rainwater Harvesting 🌧️Singapore utilizes a comprehensive network of drains, canals, rivers, and stormwater collection ponds to channel rainwater into 17 reservoirs, making it one of the few countries to harvest urban stormwater on a large scale.🌧️πŸ’¦πŸ”„
Reservoir Expansion 🏞️The addition of Punggol and Serangoon Reservoirs, as well as the completion of Marina Reservoir, increased the water catchment area from half to two-thirds of Singapore's land surface by 2011.🏞️⬆️πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¬
Future Water Catchment Goals 🎯PUB aims to boost Singapore's water catchment area to 90% by 2060 by harnessing water from remaining streams and rivulets near the shoreline using technology to treat water of varying salinity.πŸŽ―πŸ’§πŸ”œ
Reservoirs 🚰List includes Pandan, Kranji, Jurong Lake, MacRitchie, Upper Peirce, Lower Peirce, Bedok, Upper Seletar, Lower Seletar, Poyan, Murai, Tengeh, Sarimbun, Pulau Tekong, Marina, Serangoon, and Punggol Reservoirs.πŸš°πŸ“‹πŸ’§
Rivers 🏞️Extensive list of rivers including Singapore River, Sungei Kallang, Rochor River, and many others which play a role in the rainwater collection system.🏞️πŸ’¦πŸ”„

This table encapsulates Singapore's robust approach towards maximizing rainwater harvesting amidst geographical constraints, its expansion of reservoirs to increase water catchment areas, and its ambitious goals for future water catchment, along with a mention of the numerous reservoirs and rivers that contribute to this system.
