“Brock’s keynote presentation, entitled ‘Basins of Relations: Thinking Like a Watershed’, will offer interpretation about water, watersheds, human development patterns and restoration. Brock will discuss rainwater harvesting as a strategy of water conservation from roofs to the broader landscape,” states Anna Warwick Sears, OBWB Executive Director.
