The article from WIRED discusses strategies for managing extreme rainfall and flooding, exacerbated by climate change. It highlights the inadequacy of current infrastructure in many cities, which were designed for less intense weather patterns. Solutions proposed include "sponge city" concepts, where urban areas are designed to absorb and manage water through green infrastructure like parks, green roofs, and permeable pavements. The article also mentions the importance of natural flood management techniques such as restoring wetlands and floodplains to act as natural sponges. Additionally, it emphasizes the need for better urban planning, policy changes to integrate water management into city development, and the use of technology for real-time flood prediction and response. The piece underscores the necessity for a holistic approach combining engineering, ecological, and community-based solutions to adapt to increasingly severe weather events.
