Recently, Suzhou has suffered from heavy rain in succession
There is an ocean in the circle of friends
As soon as it entered Mei, the rain fell like this
"Violent Mei" is well deserved
We can see
Some streets were flooded by rain and exceeded the standard
Netizens jokingly said that going out depends on "rowing"
But in some places almost
No standing water can be seen, traffic is smooth
This is the way to complete the sponge construction

Sure enough, the "sponge city" made a force
Heavy rain days can also get rid of the "looking at the sea" curse
The effect is amazing!
What is a "sponge city"?
Like sponges, cities can have good "resilience" in adapting to environmental changes and responding to natural disasters, and realize natural accumulation, natural infiltration and natural purification.
Why do you have to build sponge cities?
The continent is flooded more and the frequency of occurrence increases. According to data from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, as of July 7, 2022, 52 cities across the country had experienced 73 waterlogging of varying degrees due to heavy rainfall.
Building a "sponge city" is not only a "face" project to purify and beautify the city, but also a "lizi" project to improve the quality of the city and enhance the sense of gain and happiness of the masses. "Sponge City" can realize the function of "breathing and breathing" of the city, effectively solve the problem of urban drainage, and at the same time improve the water quality of the city, followed by a cleaner and better urban appearance, and citizens' heartfelt happiness in life.

How to build a sponge city?
The core of the "sponge city" is to use the sponge body in the city to first retain rainwater, save it, purify it, and use or discharge the stored rainwater when needed. It is mainly to rely on the six words of "seepage, stagnation, storage, net, use, and drainage" to achieve this goal.
01 Infiltration – increases the ability to infiltrate
Reduce pavement, roofing, and ground hard paving, make full use of landscape greening and permeable pavement, strengthen natural infiltration, and leave rainwater from the source and then "seep" down.

02 Stagnation – Extend rainwater retention capacity
Allowing rainwater to slowly collect in one place can delay the formation of stormwater runoff in a short period of time, delay peak time, reduce drainage intensity, and mitigate disaster risk.

03 Storage - enhance water storage capacity
Use water storage modules and underground reservoirs to collect more rainwater and create conditions for rainwater utilization.

04 Net - improve the purification function of water body
Make full use of green space to filter precipitation, purify it and then discharge it into the water body, reduce non-point source pollution, and improve the urban water environment.

05 Use - resource utilization of rainwater
Rational use of rainwater to improve the quality of the urban environment, mainly including green watering, road washing, car washing, cooling water, landscape water, etc.

Row 06 – Improve urban drainage capacity
Effectively combine pipe drainage with ground drainage to build a safe urban drainage and waterlogging prevention system, avoid disasters such as waterlogging, and ensure the safety of urban operation.

Heavy rainfall can only be an early warning, not a way to avoid it
But let cities reduce the impact of heavy rainfall disasters
It's something we can work on
