World Green Roof Day


 

World Green Roof Day is celebrated on June 6 every year to appreciate the beautiful green roofs that contribute to a better environment and raise awareness about their importance to climate change. Did you know the first record of green roofing was the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, planted in Iraq in 500 B.C.? Also known as living roofs, they consist of vegetation that partially or completely covers a waterproofing system. Green roofing lowers the cost of cooling and reduces stormwater runoff. World Green Roof Day is an initiative by Chris Bridgman and Dusty Gedge, experts in sustainable green roofs.
