## Resource

A Dutch insurer just dropped a shocking stat: half of all residential gardens are paved, with nearly 20% covered in 75% concrete. Using data from 5 million homes, they’re pushing for greener yards—because plants soak up rain, cool down heatwaves, and slash insurance costs. Row houses get paved more than detached homes, and neighborhoods vary wildly. Small changes? Big impact. Green = resilient. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
