Green infrastructure captures, absorbs, and reduces runoff; filters stormwater; and delivers other environmental, social, and economic benefits. Investing in green infrastructure restores wildlife habitat and enhances natural systems while improving the health of residents through greater access to green space. It can improve community safety and provide economic stability by adding green local jobs, reducing infrastructure costs, and decreasing property damage from flooding.
