Green Roof - Why Choose a Green Roof?

Sustainability is the capacity to endure, and for the construction industry delivering sustainability means accepting the long-term responsibility for contributing positively towards balancing the three pillars of sustainability (social, environment & economic responsibilities) within the built environment. Through the adoption of concepts such as green roofing and green walling, together with responsible management of resource use, the construction industry can help ensure that biological systems destroyed by construction are replaced or replicated. Green roofs help the natural environment remain diverse and productive over time, a necessary precondition for the well-being of humans and other organisms, in a wide variety of ways.
