Green infrastructure

Green infrastructure is a way of using natural things around us to help us do things we need. For example, green infrastructure uses plants, trees, and other natural things to help with clean water, like filtering out pollutants, or to help reduce flooding. It can also be used to make our towns and cities beautiful, with lots of green space or green roofs. In cities, green infrastructure can also help to cool down the air, reducing air pollution.
