Senario Board



Scenario Two: Design for Water Adaption and Conservation. Above is a board showing some issues I feel are appropriate to this scenario.

· Contamination – the one thing that a flood provides is water, so why can’t we use this water? If there was a way to filter and clean the water, then it would provide thousands of litres of clean drinking water.

· Water Tanks – all the water tanks that i have found are all large blue tanks, not much to them at all. I did find an interesting picture of someone using a bucket hanging outside the window to fill the cistern of the toilet.

· Bottled water – this method of providing clean drinking water in a time of flooding will provide the water, but is it cost effective/economical?

· Tokyo Flood Tunnels – In Tokyo they have a high flood risk and because of that have taken a huge precaution with these flood tunnels.
