ABOUT WORKSHOP: Gain essential knowledge on the key benefits of green infrastructure, as Fytogreen present a comprehensive range of sustainable greening solutions that can be tailored to meet the needs of your next project.
The impact of rapid urbanisation and climate change is putting pressure on Australian cities. Increasing energy demands, worsening pollution levels and rising temperatures are compromising the biodiversity, health and resilience of urban communities. Green infrastructure – specifically, green roofs, walls and facades – are gaining popularity across the country as a way to integrate the natural environment back into urban landscapes.
Learn the design considerations for successful sustainable green infrastructure, and discuss the fundamental elements required for design and specifications, including the types of systems available and possible issues you may face relating to maintenance, plant species, planting media, draining and irrigation.
