Green roofs are an accepted part of modern building in Europe, where their use has become mandated by some city and national governments. They are commonplace in the Austrian city of Linz, where green roofs are required on all new residential and commercial buildings with rooftops larger than 100sqm.In the United States, Denver has joined San Francisco in making green roofs compulsory on certain buildings. In November, an initiative was passed which mandated that 20 percent of rooftop space on newly constructed buildings over 25,000 square feet must be covered by gardens or solar panels.The revolution has spread to Australia, where the eco-friendly design is being increasingly utilised to take advantage of their benefits.
