Sound Dampening Soil, vegetation and additional waterproofing layers can reduce sound from airplanes and machinery. Extended Roof Life Green roofs protect roofing membranes from extreme temperature fluctuations, ultraviolet radiation, and other natural extremes. Reduced Energy Cost Layers of a roof garden insulate buildings and can significantly reduce heating bills in winter, and AC bills in the summer. Storm water Management Roof gardens absorb rainfall and gently allow stromwater to runoff reducing environmental impact. Heat Island Effect Rooftops absorb heat during daylight hours and reflect it back into the atmosphere, temperatures above building can be up to 10° higher than surrounding temperatures. Greenroofs negate this affect. Incentives As "Green" initiatives become more prevalent in urban areas many city's and municipality's will begin offering bigger and bigger incentives for greenroofs.
