Short Description:
Rapid urbanization has made our cities more vulnerable to floods — but innovation and engineering are fighting back. 🌆💧
In this video, discover how modern drainage systems, green infrastructure, and early warning technologies protect millions of lives every year.
Let’s explore how cities can turn floods into resilience. 🌿
