MCFly 030- Shout it from the (green) rooftops

Manchester City Council and the AGMA "Commission for the New Economy" are paying property consultancy Drivers Jonas to do a feasibility study on creating more green roofspace in Manchester. The head of sustainability at DJ, Jon Lovell- who is heavily involved in several writing groups for the Climate Change Action Plan (see below) - said: “Green roofs deliver so many financial, environmental and public benefits, it’s astonishing that there are so few of them. We need to challenge the received wisdom about the costs and risks.”
