Here is a short excerpt from a very recent story and a link to the
full story:
Philadelphia has announced a $1.6 billion plan to transform the
city over the next 20 years by embracing its storm water - instead of
hustling it down sewers and into rivers as fast as possible.
The proposal, which several experts called the nation's most
ambitious, reimagines the city as an oasis of rain gardens, green
roofs, thousands of additional trees, porous pavement, and more.
