Why World Green Roof Day?
Towns and cities globally are going green to adapt to climate change. Green roofs also provide vital wildlife habitat and make life better for everyone.
What is World Green Roof Day?
A celebration of green roofs all over the world and the many benefits they bring to people and nature.
Guidelines for engaging with #WGRD2022
A number of organisations and companies have contacted us from around the world since we launched #WGRD2022. There is, also, plenty of activity already running up to June 6th this year on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
As this is the first of what we hope will be many World Green Roof Days, we have been running in a pretty random way. We hope to change this for next year, but here are some guidelines for those who wish to engage. Do not take this as the ‘thought police’ but as a general rule of thumb.
We want World Green Roof Day 2022 to be a great success – for all who get involved and for green roofs across the globe. And the success really is seeing more green roofs and more green roof policies around on the continents of this wonderful planet.
