Could a 'rain garden' protect your home from floods?
Original: Could planting a 'rain garden' protect your home from floods?
Euronews examines whether planting a rain garden — a shallow, plant-filled depression designed to absorb stormwater runoff — can help shield homes from flooding. The piece explores how these gardens capture and filter rainwater during heavy downpours, reducing pressure on drains and lowering flood risk. As extreme rainfall events increase across Europe, homeowners are increasingly looking at nature-based solutions for protecting their properties.
Why now: Rising flooding incidents and heavier rainfall linked to climate change are pushing homeowners to seek practical, low-cost defences.
