<br/><br/> In the last decades green roofs have been vastly investigated in many cities around the world as a tool to solve many problems in the urban environment. These include the use as catchment areas for storm-water, air and water filtration devices, habitat enhancement, reduced cooling loads, recreational open space, aesthetic improvements, and productive food and educational resources.
