I saw this being installed yesterday. Giant truck filled with pallets of greenery. This should be a big improvement.
What is the purpose of this roof?
It slows storm water runoff, stores rain, releases oxygen, cools the air.
Think of it as a horizontal tree. Only more-so.
Two hundred years after taming the wilderness and we’re back to sod roofs. I think I can hear the ghosts laughing.
