ArabiaWeather.com - Muhammad Salameh - Cultivation of rooftops within cities has flourished recently, as it provides a wide range of advantages, such as thermal regulation of the building, as it heats it during the winter and cools it during the summer. It also contributes to reducing the rate of rainwater leakage from the roofs, because it acts as an absorbent sponge water and at the same time plants benefit from this water.

 

Among the benefits of green roofs is that they work to reduce pollution, as they act as a filter to purify the air, as they increase the emission of oxygen in the atmosphere, and help to reduce the air temperature in urban areas, in addition to all this the aesthetic image that plants and trees reflect on buildings.

 

Green roofs also have many economic benefits , as they increase the life of the buildings, as they act as thermal insulators by blocking the sun’s rays from the roofs of the buildings, and also reduce the costs of air conditioning during the summer and heating during the winter.

 

It is advised to study the most suitable type of plants before planting them on roofs, and it is also necessary to take into account the amount of weight that the building will bear as a result of rooftop cultivation.
