Green Roof: Rooftop Gardening for Sustainability

To promote sustainable living and make the best use of urban space, I started a rooftop gardening project at my home. This initiative aims to grow fresh vegetables, fruits, and flowers, improve air quality, and inspire others in my community to utilize rooftops for green purposes. Activities Conducted: Prepared soil beds and installed pots on the rooftop, Planted seasonal vegetables, and flowers. Used organic compost to maintain plant health. Regularly watered and cared for the plants
Impact: Reduced household dependency on store-bought vegetables. Improved rooftop air quality and reduced heat absorption. Inspired at least 5 neighbors to start their own rooftop gardens. Contributed to a greener and healthier urban environment
This project taught me that even small spaces can make a big difference for sustainability. Gardening also improves mental well-being and strengthens our connection to nature.
