Chennai is on the path to becoming flood-free

Chennai is on the path to becoming flood-free.

A city where rain once brought chaos is now using a smarter solution to fix two big problems: flooding and falling groundwater levels.

Inspired by Germany’s rainwater harvesting system, Chennai is building underground catch pits that can store up to 40 lakh litres of rainwater.

These pits help filter the water and send it back into the ground.

In 2022, Germany built over 60,000 such systems.
Now, our Indian city is putting this idea into action on a large scale.

Amsterdam was on the edge of becoming a car-dominated city

This is what happens when a city prioritizes people over vehicles.

In 1971, Amsterdam was on the edge of becoming a car-dominated city.

That year, 3,300+ people lost their lives in road accidents, including more than 400 children.

This was the moment that changed everything.

People didn’t stay silent after this massive loss.
They came together and started a movement:- Stop the Child Murder.

They demanded safer streets, more space for people, and a city built around its citizens, not cars.
