Vegetation plays a crucial role in stormwater harvesting by contributing to natural filtration and aiding in water absorption. Plants, such as grasses and trees, help reduce runoff by absorbing and slowing down rainwater, allowing more time for infiltration into the soil. Additionally, the roots of vegetation contribute to soil stability, preventing erosion and enhancing the overall health of the ecosystem.
Green infrastructure, which incorporates vegetation into stormwater management, promotes sustainable practices by improving water quality, reducing the volume of runoff, and supporting the efficiency of stormwater harvesting systems. This symbiotic relationship between vegetation and stormwater management contributes to environmental sustainability.
