Watch this how-to video to see our new stormwater model in action and observe the set-up and take-down process.
The exhibit demonstrates the difference in stormwater runoff volume between rural and developed landscapes, with and without best management practices installed. Participants turn the crank to make it rain and swap out good and bad landscapes to observe differences in infiltration and runoff volume. The display components collapse into a large metal box, which is designed to fit in a car (such as Angie’s Prius!) for easy transport.
This model was created by Tim Foss, our 2022-23 Climate Resiliency AmeriCorps member.
If you’re interested in borrowing the model for an upcoming event, please contact Jessica Sahu Teli at [email protected].
