Low Impact Development & Green Infrastructure

Doug McCluskey

This course in Green Infrastructure and Low Impact Development, you will gain an understanding of how to utilize green infrastructure (GI) and Low Impact Development (LID) strategies to manage stormwater. In addition to being low-cost when compared to conventional grey infrastructure, GI/LID strategies offer many benefits: capturing, cleaning, and infiltrating storm water; improving urban wildlife habitat; shading and cooling streets and buildings; and calming traffic. This course offers you an in-depth professional training on the "how to" of GI and LID concepts, design, and best practices.
