Vegetative cover in Mallorca

A green roof is a constructive installation that has a vegetation cover on top of soil or substrate and is specially conceived to mitigate the effects of urban growth and at the same time as an aesthetic element.

Green roofs help mitigate phenomena such as heat island and the greenhouse effect.

These works help retain rainwater and help reduce air pollution, as the covers act like sponges and trap dust and ash particles while releasing oxygen.

An important fact about roofs is that they ration the energy consumption of buildings. By absorbing heat, plants regulate the internal temperature of the infrastructure.
