Could Sponge Cities Be the Solution to Flooding? 🌊🏙️
Instead of fighting water with concrete and drains, cities are starting to work with nature—and the results are game-changing.
Sponge cities absorb rainwater naturally using:
🌱 Green spaces & wetlands to soak up excess water
🏗️ Permeable pavements that let rain seep through
🏡 Rooftop gardens & water-holding landscapes to prevent runoff
The result? Less flooding, cleaner water, and cooler cities.
With climate change bringing more extreme weather, should more cities adopt this approach? Drop your thoughts below! ⬇️
