Living GREEN ROOF BENEFITS
AESTHETIC IMPROVEMENTS
Urban greening has long been used as a positive and effective strategy for beautifying any industrial environment and increasing investment opportunity.
Reduce Heat Island Effect
Through the daily dew and evaporation cycle, plants are able to cool cities during warmer seasons and reduce the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect.
IMPROVED AIR QUALITY
The plants on green roofs can secure airborne pollutants, atmospheric removal, and also filter poisonous gases.
MARKETING
Green roofs can increase a building's marketability. They become an identifiable symbol of the green building movement and can act as an incentive for those interested in the various benefits offered by green roofs systems.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The greater insulation offered by green roofs can reduce the amount of energy needed to moderate the temperature of a building, as roofs are the site of the hottest temperatures in South Florida
IMPROVED HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
Green roofs can serve as community hubs, increasing social bond, sense of community, and public safety.
