Installing a rain barrel for your yard can help to prevent flooding and reduce erosion. They can hold 55 to 90 gallons of water and certain models can save an average of 1,300 gallons of water each summer.
Steve Droter/Chesapeake Bay Program
ALT Rain barrels are seen at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Lancaster, Pa., on May 21, 2012.

In the LLM-science discussion, I see a common misconception that science is a thing you do and that writing about it is separate and can be automated. I’ve written over 300 scientific papers and can assure you that science writing can’t be separated from science doing. Why? 1/18
