Estimating the Environmental Effects of Green Roofs


Green Roofs are making a difference in Kansas City. JBC is pleased to have contributed to this new report. 

The EPA is excited to introduce a new case study demonstrating the environmental and health benefits of green roofs in Kansas City, Missouri, Estimating the Environmental Effects of Green Roofs. The case study lays out a replicable analytical framework that state and local decision makers can use to assess the multiple benefits of green roofs, including stormwater runoff reductions and public health improvements.
