Why is it important?
This forum article encourages an intellectual discussion in this rapidly-expanding field of stormwater low-impact developement.
Perspectives
Stormwater low-impact development (LID) techniques such as the Vegetated Swales, Green Roofs, Porous Pavement and green infrastructure practices such as rainwater harvesting at the broader scale are emerging as viable strategies for climate change adaptation. A collaborative research and innovative implementation plans are necessary to optimize their benefits.
