Guarding Against The Threat Posed By Excess Rain


Turning out the news to see another area of the world being hit by some catastrophic form of weather seems to be an almost daily occurrence now.

Why Sustainable Urban Drainage Is Important For The Environment


One of the biggest problems with modern human civilization is that over time we ve tended to pave over and build on a lot of the surface area of the earth. This is especially troublesome in highly populated areas like cities were nearly 100% of the ground is completely covered with concrete and buildings. What this can lead to is enormous amounts of water that have no place to go, it can t soak into the ground, so it floods and creates rushing torrents of water headed towards our streams and rivers. Nature s way of dealing with excess water is to allow as much of it as possible to soak into the ground right where it lands, and the soil acts as a giant filter, where billions of algae, bacteria, fungi and other small plants and animals thrive by using the water to live on and in. After  years in the ground, the water eventually filters on down to the river and back to the ocean. Let s examine some ways where humans can learn from mother nature when it comes to sustainable urban draina

Green Roof Benefits: What You Need To Know


Green roofs (a type of roof that utilizes and creates a natural habitat on the rooftop, also known as a living roof) are slowly gaining popularity in both urban centres and rural areas. This roof uses a waterproofing membrane and a root barrier that makes it possible for one to plant grass, or any other light vegetation on the rooftop. Unlike other conventional roofing materials that only provide shelter, green roofs come with many other environmental benefits among many others. Some of the main green roof benefits that come with using this type of a roof are discussed below. 1.         Environmental benefits These roofs have a positive impact on the environment in that; they help reduce carbon dioxide concentration as grass and other vegetation aid in air purification. Air around most urban centres is mostly toxic because very few trees or grass are present. However, having some vegetation on every apartment’s rooftop can help deal with the toxic air. Another key benefit of

It’s easy being green: New research supports green roof advancement in the U.S. | National Geographic (blogs)


Imagine looking down on a major cityscape and seeing a sea of lush greens dotted with vibrant blues, yellows and Mother Nature’s other favorite hues. Normally, that type of scenery can only be found in the Midwest, over expansive prairies or western plains. However, in the future, metropolises could become “Emerald Cities,” distinguished by the green roofs crowning their skyscrapers and buildings.

The Intersection of Land Use Management and Water Security · Environmental Leader · Environmental Management News


Water conservation practices are just one component of a sustainable and resilient water system. The public’s relationship with and influence on their water system extends far beyond the boundaries of improved efficiency. In particular, land use practices are closely related to water supply availability, ecosystem health and water quality. Looking to the future, communications around land use issues will be an increasingly important touch-point between water managers and their customers, and it is an area of growing interest in the broader environmental community.
