How do rain barrels, water-friendly landscaping, and rain gardens help our waterways? How can you save money and save the planet from your home or neighborhood green space this season?

ROW’s latest In the Know with ROW event focused on Green Infrastructure (GI) which “uses vegetation, soils, and other elements and practices to restore some of the natural processes required to manage water and create healthier urban environments” (EPA).

Panelists Kelly Brown of ROW, Alvin Sangsuwangul of Kheprw Institute, Ethan Olson of Keep Indianapolis Beautiful, and John Hazlett of Marion County Soil and Water Conservation District discussed the impacts of stormwater and how to manage it in your yard to prevent flooding, conserve water, and help our waterways.
