Lecture description
Green façades and roofs have become a symbol of climate-conscious architecture. But what do they actually do for the urban climate, biodiversity and liveability, and what do construction, irrigation and maintenance cost over decades? This keynote separates vision from reality: which systems work technically, where greenery is little more than a fig leaf, and how greening can move from one-off projects to standard practice in urban development.
