What is green roof?

A green roof is a roof of a building that is partially or completely covered with vegetation and a growing medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane

How it works?
Ho to make it?

 

Yes, and it has some Advantages as:

 

  •  Help improve air quality by reducing CO2 levels

  •  Insulate buildings, reducing cost of both heating and cooling

  •  Sound-absorbing and insulating properties can help make buildings and their surroundings quieter

  •  Increase life expectancy of rooftop waterproofing due to protection from ultraviolet rays and mechanical impact

  •  Reduce the urban heat island effect by cooling and humidifying surrounding air

  •  Increase habitat for birds and butterflies, partially compensating for landscape lost to building development

  •  Green rooftops reduce and delay storm water runoff

  •  Help filter and bind airborne dust and other particles

  •  Provide attractive views from other buildings and the Building or House owner.
