Up on the roof

Article Abstract:

Bermuda's roofs of white limestone have evolved over four centuries to withstand hurricanes and collect rainwater for household use. In order to supplement the demand for water, commercial operations have to find other sources like pumping water from underground aquifers and the government has plans to begin desalinization of seawater to make it potable.
