Florida had a huge problem where unscrupulous lawyers and roofers would go around to homeowners and say "We can get you a new roof for free!". Homeowners would sign over their negotiating rights to the lawyer/roofer, they&#x2

This is what I'm afraid of. We already have too much microplstics in our environment, and is it worth reducing water runoff when the solution involves even more microplastics?

I'm really interested in the geotextile pavements that were mentioned at the end of the article. As someone who lives where it can get pretty rainy, having a cheap yet effective geotextile driveway would be great.
