The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were said to be blanketed an entire palace in exotic greenery. Today, living roofs are blooming with modern technologies and making a good eco-friendly alternatives to materials like asphalt or tile.
The benefits of using green roofs, according to the EPA is filter pollution, reduce storm water run-off, naturally cool the air, and reducing "heat island effect."
