Love this! It’s clearly talking about the same problem a world away from Ireland but it highlights that storm water run off and its effects are a local issue around the world #spongeCities

Le città spugna per assorbire gli effetti della crisi climatica Copenaghen ha messo in campo un riassetto urbano per far fronte agli allagamenti
