"This technology offers us an opportunity to significantly improve not only the way our buildings operate, but to utilize wasted spaces -- there are millions of square miles," says Steven Peck, founder and president of Green Roofs for Healthy Cities, an organization established to increase awareness of green roof benefits. GRHC also hopes to advance the market in North America. "The roofing industry is just at the beginning of a process of transformation. Nothing can match the range of social, economic and environmental benefits green roofs provide."

Yeah, this is pretty cool. THey have an example of a green roof at the Meridian Playfield in Wallingford. I think Seattle Tilth maintains it.
Cool article. I wish there were some pictures though.
