DID YOU KNOW?? Stormwater runoff carries pollutants into our waterways such as pet waste, motor oil, trash and so much more. Let's start today and dispose of our waste properly, so we can have clean water.

Thanks for this great story, @NBCDFW! #DallasWaterCommons project TRANSFORMS wetlands. An upcoming project will transform what has been a trashy ditch in the past into a combination of education, recreation and flood control water filtration.

The future of cities is linked to:
→ Water Conservation
→ Water Filtration
→ Flood Management

The #DallasWaterCommons provides all three.
