re: GreenRoofs.com’s article about Stormwater Runoff Management

In our previous blog, we reflected on an article about the economical and environmental options when considering how to water a green roof enough - for example, a builder can store rainwater to irrigate a green roof during droughts.

We recently read this article by GREENROOFS.COM about green roofs and their positive impact on the need for urban stormwater runoff management: Cities Are Learning to Manage Urban Stormwater the Way Nature Would - Greenroofs.com

It turns out there are even more important benefits related to water and green roofs. Sidewalks, roads, parks, and more help cities manage stormwater runoff because it can overwhelm a city and contaminate sewage systems with bacteria. Green roofs naturally help keep more of the rain where it falls.

More building owners around the world are increasingly embracing green roofs and similar green infrastructure technology to manage stormwater.

Many companies in our field do not care enough to help set you on the right track when it comes to optimizing your green roofs interaction with water. This is why Groof is first in this space - we treat our customers and their stakeholders with respect, and we treat their projects like our very own, always.
