Many regulations now impose "green" roofs even for ever smaller areas. This change imposes technical constraints and precautions. Solutions exist that range from simple extensive greening to a real hanging garden, a support for activity but also for biodiversity.
Like the previous thematic evenings organized by the UPA-BUA, it will offer multiple and complementary approaches that will allow us to explore this topical issue.
