Green infrastructure revolutionizes stormwater management in Ontario, reducing flooding and pollution.
Stormwater management in Ontario is being improved through green infrastructure policies. Traditional methods are not effective for handling stormwater, leading to increased flooding and pollution. Low Impact Development principles have shown success in cold climates and are cost-effective. Green Stormwater Infrastructure benefits communities and is more sustainable than traditional solutions. Implementing GSI on private lands and in public spaces can help manage rain where it falls. Ontario is in the early stages of adopting GSI for stormwater management.
