Green Infrastructure For Texas: Educating Coastal Stakeholders on the Role of Green Infrastructure

Summary

Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service (AgriLife) will increase the Green Infrastructure For Texas (GIFT) outreach effort through stakeholder education. AgriLife will produce a web-hosted video to showcase green infrastructure projects and explain how green infrastructure improves water quality, reduces flood risks, and provides habitat. The GIFT website will be fully developed as a clearinghouse of information and resources. Factsheets will be created for distribution. Workshops and field days will be held to educate stakeholders and decision makers on the importance and benefits of green infrastructure.
