Spotlight On Natural Resources

This week we chat with Kara Salazar from Purdue Extension and Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant about how communities approach sustainable development around their water resources. Kara discusses the challenges of managing stormwater, green infrastructure solutions like bioswales and permeable pavements, how you can become involved in learning more about your community’s water, and how climate change is impacting water resource planning. Check out Kara's blog on this topic here. Resources: EDEN – Extension Disaster Education NetworkClimate Change and Sustainable DevelopmentOne Water Approach to Water Resources ManagementQuestions?
