Brilliant! #greeninfrastructure
A Vancouver neighborhood has created a new way to mitigate flooding. Rainways are landscaped paths that mimic natural streams, with native plants to store rainwater and filter pollutants while providing other neighborhood benefits, such as improved aesthetics. #greeninfrastructure

Six years ago this was mostly grass. Today it hums with bees, hoverflies, butterflies and birds. It’s an ordinary Irish garden supporting more life every year. Imagine if thousands more gardens did the same.

Supermarket giant Carrefour is already installing 350 solar carports across its store car parks, expected to produce up to 450 GWh of solar power per year. @France

France is mandating solar panels on every large commercial car park in the country — turning millions of square metres of idle asphalt into one of Europe's most productive clean energy assets.
I have been mentioning this for months - they are shooting up on all the supermarket car parks.

Bradford city centre has undergone a transformation.
The pedestrianised areas and 10,000 square metre park will have a lasting impact on people’s health, wellbeing and daily lives.
It’s fantastic to see the city centre thrive.

I love my creekside soil sponges! #GreenInfrastructure
One of the measures to adapt #cities to #floods is create more green spaces, such as parks, gardens or urban forests 🌳🪴🌿 The reason is that the #soil in green areas is porous and acts like a sponge capable of absorbing water when it rains ☔️ Read about it!! 👇🏾

As already warm cities become more and more vulnerable to extreme heat events, or just the “new normal” of hotter and hotter cities every day, here’s just one more reason why more street trees and other greenery are good for streets & cities. It’s just common sense, really. Cooler, cleaner, better.
