Green infrastructure and nature-based solutions - Solution

Urban Green Space Development

We assist in designing and implementing parks, green roofs, and community gardens to enhance urban biodiversity, reduce heat island effects, and improve public well-being.

  • Conduct site assessments for optimal green space placement
  • Provide native plant selection and sustainable landscaping guidance

Stormwater Management Systems

We support the creation of natural systems like bioswales, rain gardens, and permeable pavements to capture and filter runoff, reducing flooding and pollution.

  • Design nature-based drainage solutions tailored to local conditions
  • Offer maintenance protocols for long-term system effectiveness

Wetland Restoration And Creation

We facilitate the rehabilitation of degraded wetlands or establishment of new ones to improve water quality, provide wildlife habitat, and increase carbon sequestration.

  • Develop hydrologic and ecological restoration plans
  • Monitor wetland health and ecosystem services over time

Urban Forestry And Tree Canopy Expansion

We help plan and execute tree planting initiatives to increase canopy cover, which cools cities, improves air quality, and connects green corridors.

  • Select climate-resilient tree species for urban environments
  • Implement community engagement programs for tree stewardship

Coastal And Riverine Resilience Projects

We advise on using natural features like living shorelines, oyster reefs, and floodplain reconnection to protect against erosion and sea-level rise.

  • Model natural infrastructure performance for coastal protection
  • Integrate solutions with community resilience planning

Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)

A: Examples include green roofs, rain gardens, bioswales, permeable pavements, and constructed wetlands. These solutions absorb and filter rainwater, reduce runoff, improve water quality, and recharge groundwater, while also providing habitat and cooling urban areas.

A: Green infrastructure often has lower long-term capital and maintenance costs, increases property values, reduces energy costs through cooling, and can generate revenue from ecosystem services like carbon sequestration. It also mitigates costs from climate-related damages that grey infrastructure may not prevent.

A: Yes. While planning is easier in new developments, retrofitting is possible through street tree planting, pocket parks, vertical gardens, converting vacant lots, and integrating green elements into building renovations. Successful implementation requires community engagement and supportive local policies.
