When you green your roof, you green far more than your roof. You green our
planet. Green roofs absorb carbon dioxide and pollutants almost immediately
after planting - in the first 3-5 years! They provide us with life-giving oxygen.
They help us manage our stormwater and keep our freshwater runoff from
polluting and diluting our ocean waters. Green roofs are an important means of
cooling not only one building, but a whole city. When green roofs cool our
coastal cities, our coastal waters will be cooled. Our oceans and climate will
stabilize. We can reduce peak demand and increase our energy efficiency.
Green roof by green roof, we can each make a difference.

| On December 18, 2007 a new non-profit organization was born: Foundation for a Green Future. We hope that this will provide the impetus to green our roofs more quickly than solely relying on sales and on lagging government incentives. We intend to provide subsidies to help those who want a green roof on their building, particularly non-profits. Please contact us if you wish to support this effort or benefit from it! |
