Absolutely, stormwater harvesting is a key component of water-sensitive urban design (WSUD). WSUD emphasizes integrating water management into the urban landscape, promoting sustainability and resilience. Stormwater harvesting complements other WSUD strategies like permeable pavements, green roofs, and vegetated swales.
By capturing and reusing rainwater, it reduces reliance on centralized water sources, mitigates flooding risks, and enhances overall water quality. This holistic approach fosters environmentally conscious urban development, creating communities that efficiently manage water resources, minimize environmental impact, and adapt to the challenges posed by urbanization and climate change.
