Green Roofs

Jump to Comments

The green roof initiative’s lasting effects:

  • contribution to heating/cooling buildings
  • stormwater management
  • reducing the urban heat island effect
  • filtering pollutants and CO2
  • increasing wildlife habitats
  • it’s beautiful!

You can find green roofs in cities like Chicago, Norway, London, and throughout Japan, but people are starting to install green roofs in suburban areas as well. Truly green.
