We’ve been following SustainPHL award recipient Green City Clean Waters since the beginning and can’t believe they recently celebrated 5 years!

They’ve greened a grand total of 837.7 Greened Acres as of June 1st, which equates to an estimated 1.5 billion gallon reduction in stormwater overflows during a typical year of rainfall.

Lucky for us, they compiled a nice lil’ video all about their program so we don’t have to list the details for you. Watch below.
