Mülheim an der Ruhr, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, flat roof with green roof. Extensive green roofs with low-growing plants such as grasses and sedum plants that are largely self-sustaining without maintenance. They are well adapted to the extreme site conditions on the roof, extreme temperatures, frost, wind, heat, sun and little water. The green roof insulates in winter and serves as heat protection in summer, thus contributing to energy savings and strengthening urban climate resilience as a natural air conditioning system. Green roofs promote biodiversity and help to mitigate urban warming caused by climate change, Europe
