Abstract

EN The urban green roof has been built in many large cities, such as Hong-Kong, Singapore, New York, Tokyo and in the like around the word. Anyhow, this idea already brings a lot of benefits to the society, environment and the economy. However, in my opinion, a lot of small towns also need to develop the green-roof system in order for it to be promoted as an easy and effective strategy for beautifying the living environment and increasing investment opportunities. In this research including functional analysis based on the designed projects, there are some high buildings in small cities used to be designed with the Green roof system; Furthermore, green roofs can also help reduce the dispersion of dust and particulate matter throughout the city, and limit smog. This can play an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adapting urban areas to the hot summer season climate of the future.
