GREENROOF

Mullen has spent months studying the design and cultural birth of green roofs in Scandinavia where the original green roofs have been used for hundreds of years. Then the sod was used for house insulation and waterproofed done by birch bark. The benefits of having a green roof are boundless in the urban environment where storm water management, pollutant control, erosion control, air quality, CO2 emissions, insulation and urban heat island effect and ecological habitat are all a colossal challenge. Additional benefits are amenity space, CO2 sink, local food production, direct health benefits, increased real estate value, bio-diversity, local water quality and source ecosystem protection and quality of life.
