The aim was to reduce energy costs, improve air quality and control the rainwater entering the city’s waste system(系统).Green roofs also help reduce a problem called urban heat islands(城市热岛现象).During hot weather, the building’s root could reach temperatures of up to 76℃. With the garden, the temperature of the root area was reduced by at least 30℃. Workers planted over 150 kinds of plants that could stand bad weather. Now the area is cooler, the building requires less energy to keep cool, and the roof looks nice. Chicago also offers money to help people pay for building their own green roots.
