it is (relatively) easy to copy something that you know works.
it is extremely hard to do something new, risky, and difficult when you don't know if it will work.
individual researchers rightly get a lot of glory for that when they do it! it's the coolest thing in the world.
Every square meter of PurePave’s permeable system eliminates 940 Liters of stormwater pollution per year
Toronto has been through some massive floods this summer. We need to look at all possible solutions to manage and mitigate the impacts these have on residents and the entire city.
Yesterday I got to learn more about @PurePaveTech and I’m genuinely impressed.

Awesome, and thanks for connecting on that, colleague. I’m eager to get a demo from them and start to advocate for use of this kind of permeable surface on new municipal projects.

This Ottawa based company not only manufacturers here but is part of Ottawa’s rain ready program, that we talked about in Environment committee recently.
@PurePaveTech and Rain Ready Ottawa is something I have been promoting, and Maybe the Chair can include a reminder at the next committee. 🌱

I got a @PurePaveTech driveway because my street does not have any drainage and we used to have massive puddles every time it rained. It has been awesome. Definitely an innovative way to solve flooding issues.
@ottawacity has the rain ready program that provides grants to property owners who install it. Likewise, if developers are provided with stormwater credit they can increase their lot coverage, resulting in greater land use and incentives to implement these systems

How many years will it take until planning accepts permeable pavers as legit?
As you well know, it ties into laneway suites and all manor of residential files, countless projects could have been more easily approved if this one thing was possible.

Thanks for taking the time to learn about our systems Brad. We’re excited to help work our way toward saving the city money, reducing flood risk and enhancing the environmental resiliency of Toronto

This is a game-changer for managing stormwater floods. With 95% permeability, it's not only more effective than traditional materials but also stronger and more durable.
Excited to see how innovations like this can reshape our approach to urban planning and contribute to a more sustainable future. Thanks Taylor for stopping by!
