Following the Brokerage Event “Going green in Seventeen” jointly organised by AER and ERRIN, we are happy to share with AER member region a project proposal on air quality which have been presented during one of the break-out session. This project is looking for partners to join the consortia!
Green Solution for Outdoor Air Pollution

It proposes to use green roofs as a solution for improving air quality and life in cities. The research aims at developing a tool capable to quantify the amount and type of reduced pollutants, obtaining the potential health benefits that green roofs can provide to the environment and population health.
