Stormwater Harvesting
Stormwater Harvesting is a way to collect and use rainwater that runs off streets, roofs, and other surfaces in cities. In urban infrastructure, designers can use special paving materials and green spaces that help water soak into the ground or flow into storage tanks. These systems can help reduce flooding and provide water for gardens, parks, and cleaning public spaces. Designers can include features like rain gardens, underground tanks, and channels that guide water to where it is needed most. Using these ideas, cities can save water and make public spaces greener and more comfortable for everyone.
