Rain is a resource society can use and should: this is what Atlantic Coastal Action Program Cape Breton hopes to convey with its graphic design contest for ACAP’s summer rain barrel giveaway. “Stormwater issues are increasing with climate change because we're having more frequent storms and heavier rainfalls,” said ACAP Cape Breton project manager Jen Cooper. Much of the infrastructure in use today wasn’t built for the world we’re living in, with its heavier rain and snowstorms and more severe extreme weather events. This is resulting in more frequent minor to moderate flooding events in Cape Breton.
