5 Green Roofing Benefits

5 Benefits of Green Roofing 1 Green Roofs Reduce Runoff During heavy rain, runoff can overwhelm stormwater drains which can lead to damaged waterways and fish habitats. They Are Energy Efficient Green roofs reduce the amount of heat entering a building, so there is less of a need for heating and cooling thus reducing energy costs. Improved Air Quality Less ground level ozone and less heat means less smog. Plant leaves also trap dust particles in the air and cool ambient temperatures. 4 They Can Serve As a Habitat If undisturbed, green roofs can serve as refuge for many types of birds to nest and raise their young. Green Roofs Last Longer Green roofs are protected from UV rays and temperature flucuations, reducing the cost of maintenance and the need for re-roofing. www.essentialflatroofing.com Source: http://commons.bcit.ca/greenroof/faq/why-green-roofs-benefits/
