At Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, sustainable practices are at the core of our values, and our Amaravati campus has taken a pioneering step in water conservation through the construction of a human-made pond for rainwater harvesting. This initiative addresses local water challenges by harnessing natural resources efficiently and fostering an eco-friendly campus.
A Human-Made Pond for Rainwater Collection
The human-made pond, built to capture and store rainwater, plays a crucial role in water conservation at our campus. It collects runoff during the monsoon season and provides a source of stored water that can be used throughout the year, significantly reducing dependence on external water sources. By allowing rainwater to naturally infiltrate and recharge groundwater, this pond helps maintain a stable water table, supporting the local ecosystem.
Promoting Sustainability and Environmental Stewardship
This rainwater harvesting pond is more than just a water reservoir; it is a symbol of our commitment to sustainability. Designed with both functionality and environmental harmony in mind, the pond not only conserves water but also serves as a reminder to our students, faculty, and staff of the importance of resource conservation. Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham is proud to contribute to environmental sustainability and hopes to inspire other institutions to follow suit.
