Reply To: Why are swales examples of green building?

[Anonymous]

The article is straightforward and clear. Swales are a good example of green building because instead of using toxins and chemical to treat our waters, this approach uses nature. The rain gardens will naturally cleanse the water as well as prevent the overflow of the storm sewer. In addition, plants are a great for urban areas where there typically aren’t many gardens or green in general. More oxygen, clean water and beauty. Win, win, win.
