Roofs mediate the 'carbon
footprint.' Green roofs are planted atop buildings and have a
cooling effect on the space below. Put down soil and plants on top of apartment
buildings, office towers, back yard sheds, schools and churches to reduce energy demands
and absorb CO2. Green roofs also provide needed habitat for insects, birds, bats and
other creatures, including humans who need a break from concrete and asphalt. |
