Comment : I've never thought about building green, but just insisted to give me more nature. However after reading this, I got lots of ideas for saving everygy. Especially, the thought of gardens on roof is great I think, cause by building this building, we can not only enjoy the nature, but also save environment.
I really want buildings in the world to convert the system into that, and then I hope the buildings where we stduy, sleep, and work are becoming healthier and greener.
