Module 2-Conclusion
Conclusion
AWHOLE SYSTEMS
A wide range of effective ecological and biological wastewater treatment technologies and bioremediation technologies have been explored in this module. None of them are plug and play, all of them need to be adapted to specific uses and locations. By learning how and when to use these technologies and by using scale-linking design to integrate these different solutions in ways that create synergies to solve local, regional and global problems, we can all become active participants in the redesign of the human presence on Earth. Healthy watersheds, clean drinking water, frugal and restorative use of water in agriculture and industry are all important contributions of the transition to regenerative communities collaboratively nested within sustainable bioregions.
