Did you know that a green roof can greatly improve the thermal insulation of your home and even the lifespan of your roof? Or that if you live on a flight path, a green roof could be the perfect way to reduce the noise levels? Here you can find out more – we discovered a superlative article about green roofs, with some well-researched and detailed information! There are some useful links at the end for further reading too.

With the world population growing at such a rate and many urban environments starved of nature and fresh air, there is a demand for more of a balance. Using roof space to grow plants is an ingenious solution. A green roof could be anything from a simple turf roof to a productive garden or even a haven for wildlife – how about choosing plants known to encourage bees and butterflies?

If you’re thinking of adding a green roof to your property it has to be planned carefully as it will add a very considerable weight to the structure. Not all houses are suitable for this load, so it’s worth doing your research and it’s best to find a professional to design, give advice or to carry out the work for you. Ideally it’s something you can incorporate into a new build but it could add a wonderful and beneficial feature to an existing structure. It’s even possible to have green walls too!

An old flat roof that needs replacing can now be turned into an opportunity to create something magical for your home. It’s not only a realistic option, it can even be done for less than the cost of a conventional flat roof. With benefits for urban areas that include flood prevention (due to absorption of rainwater) and the reduction of the urban heat effect, this has got be the way to go!

Further Research

“Green Roofs for Healthy Cities” is a not-for profit organisation that is promoting green roof technology and training. Their recent study showed that the number of living roofs went up by 115 percent in 2011 in the US! Please try their site for more ideas and information: http://greenroofs.org/

The University of Sheffield has done a lot of research – you can access their publications here: https://sites.google.com/a/sheffield.ac.uk/green-roof-research/

There’s further good news in the UK – the idea is catching on in London and with support from the UK Government’s sustainable development strategy (2005) it looks like we could see more living roofs in the cities of the future: http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/business/sectors/91967.aspx

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:

According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.

It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.

Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!

As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?

But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!

The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.

This gives you real water security!

� What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises...

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

Most People Don't Have The Guts To Try This:

An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.

Remember... back in those days, there was no electricity... no refrigerators... no law enforcement... and certainly no grocery store or supermarkets... Some of these exceptional skills are hundreds of years of old and they were learned the hard way by the early pioneers.
