What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Cities are adopting stormwater fees and green infrastructure programs as a response to failing traditional concrete drainage systems under heavier rainfall and prolonged droughts. This transition is driving the growth of Nature-based Solutions (NbS), which intersect material science, green finance, and smart civil technology. These solutions include porous and permeable materials, real-time sensor networks, and advanced hydro-mapping software for urban planning.
