Did you know that permeable surfaces result in fewer icing hazards in the winter? Directing stormwater runoff to permeable areas means more water is absorbed into the ground naturally and thus less water remains upon hard surfaces to freeze #WeAreGreenInfrastructure

Green infrastructure assets support wildlife! Stormwater systems help to keep water clean while natural heritage assets, wetlands and urban forests all provide terrestrial and aquatic habitat #WorldWildlifeDay

What came first, energy demand or supply? Green infrastructure, such as trees shading buildings in the summer or blocking wind in winter can stop the cycle of fossil fuel combustion by lowering the energy demand for the heating and cooling of buildings #WeAreGreenInfrastructure

Green infrastructure benefits us all by supporting climate change adaptation. GI assets offset the heat island effect by reducing air temperature and creating shade. Other GI assets also help to manage stormwater during extreme weather events and more! #WeAreGreenInfrastructure

Green infrastructure helps mitigate climate change by reducing emissions and slowing global temperature rise! Urban forests, parks and open spaces, green roofs, and natural heritage systems directly absorb and remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere #WeAreGreenInfrastructure
