Paving

Environmental concerns in paving are about water runoff. The good news: There are a host of paving products which let water get through to the ground underneath, limiting water runoff, preventing erosion, filtering out pollutants, and improving the health of soil and vegetation.

 

If you are planning a driveway, patio, sidewalk, or garden path project, consider permeable pavers or pervious concrete to allow for natural drainage while providing a solid surface strong enough to handle vehicles or people.

 

Techniques like open concrete grids, pourous concrete, and permeable pavers are some of my favorite eco-paving ideas.
