Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems for Stormwater Management
Quick fact
A single rain garden can absorb up to 30% more water than a typical lawn, reducing runoff and filtering pollutants naturally.
Why this is interesting
Every time it rains in a city, millions of litres of water rush off roofs and roads, carrying pollutants into rivers. What if we could turn that problem into an opportunity by letting the rain soak in where it falls?
