Green Roof Resource

While September in Michigan signals football and apple cider doughnuts to some, to me it signals the return of the University of Michigan’s Energy Fest. This year, the fest’s keynote speaker, Jennifer Sprout of Green Roofs for Healthy Cities, will present “Green Roofs- The Last Urban Frontier.” Hopefully this can generate excitement within the university community toward greater investment in the technology.
The fest is not limited to the many benefits and wonders of green roofs, however. Exhibits featuring efforts by the City of Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan toward increased energy efficiency and alternative energy use will be on display on September 12th (Central Campus Diag) and September 14th (North Campus Portico Plaza). Displays include those by the U-M Solar Car Team, U-M Recycling Program, and the Ann Arbor Energy Office.
