The Alchemy of Waste to Liquid Gold

Seven Surprising Solutions for Golf’s Water Usage
For the foreseeable future, golf courses will face increasing pressure on reducing the usage of water (especially freshwater), maximizing the efficiency of land use, and building resilience for drought and flooding (as a result of increasingly irregular weather patterns). Here are seven surprising solutions to reframe those challenges through exciting design opportunities.
