Summary
Green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) addresses community greening and cooling, reduces flood risk, and improves water quality through the installation of trees, rain gardens, green roofs, and a variety of basins, wetlands, and other low-lying terrain features that capture and manage rainfall and runoff. It is a proven approach for communities vulnerable to climate-related stresses tied to rising temperatures and severe flood risks.
