The setup was made up of waste timber collected from the skip, reformatted by carpenters, then soil was poured on the platform and plantation began after the irrigation setup was done. It was evident that plantation of roof garden had positive impact on roofs by following: The measure helped Reduce the wood waste disposal since the waste wood was revised. Reduce outdoor thermal comfort Reduced the energy consumption. Protect the roof from direct contact with solar heat during summer Reduces biodiesel consumption. Improves air quality. Makes the environment looks greener. Reduces indoor temperature. Produces oxygen Converts CO2 emission Effective use of rainwater as the rainwater falls directly on the grass.
