What is a green building?

A green building is a building that uses sustainable design and construction practices. These practices include using renewable resources, such as solar power, natural lighting, and passive heating and cooling. They also include reducing the use of water and energy, reusing materials in the building whenever possible, and recycling.

What are the benefits of having a green roof?

A green roof is a type of roof that has vegetation on it. This can be a living roof, which is made up of plants and soil, or a non-living roof, which is covered with gravel and plastic. Green roofs have many benefits. They help to insulate the building below them by providing shade and insulation from the sun's heat. They also reduce storm water runoff by capturing rainwater and releasing it slowly into the ground instead of letting it run off quickly into gutters or streams. A green roof also provides habitat for wildlife such as birds, insects, frogs, lizards, spiders and even small mammals like mice.
