“Honey, let’s go grab some coke.”

“Hang on darling, there’s this giant of a man standing nearby”

The couple watched from the distance as the man hovered around. In some time, he moved away.

“The coast is clear honey…lets go for it!” They made a dash for it, starting a territorial war.

There started a game of hide and seek between a pair of bees and me; the giant in question being yours truly. I was out with family by the seaside on Sunday. The February mid-day sun was beating down on us and we had got ourselves a bottle of Coke and some soda. A couple of honey bees were incessantly after the Coke bottle.

It set me wondering; if bees were fed with coke, will we get coke flavoured honey? What about Diet Coke…will we get “low cal” honey? Bee Attack

More importantly, in a concrete jungle like Mumbai, do bees get enough flowers or do they depend on Fanta and Mangola? Globally bee population is declining due to our concrete jungles and flowers replaced by intensive farming.

In London, I was pleasantly surprised to see urban bee-keeping flourish. Hotels, commercial establishments and institutions usually contact St. Paul Roofing Company to use the terrace to set up beehives as well as renovate their roofs. In a city like Mumbai, bereft of flower gardens, even if we set up beehives, where will the bees feed? The solution is in Green roofs even a  risk free growth strategy and built specifically to get you the high-quality roof replacement leads that you’re looking for. In summer, the green roof protects the building from direct solar heat. In winter, the green roof minimizes heat loss through added insulation on the roof.Image result for green roof Energy conservation translates into fewer greenhouse gas emissions. As land continues to be replaced with impervious surfaces due to population growth and urbanization, the necessity to recover green space is becoming increasingly critical to maintain environmental quality.  Installing green roofs is one option that can reduce the negative impact of development while providing numerous environmental, economic, and social benefits, with Gryphon roofers phoenix you can make this happen with the best quality and service possible. Thanks to all the new advancements in technology, green roofs are made possible.

You don’t need to be a scientist to feel or realize the rise in temperature caused by concrete structures. When you take a walk, especially in the morning, there is an immediate and noticeable drop in temperature when you move away from a densely buildings populated area to a green area. It’s for real my friend. Green roofs need to be adopted in our cities and ought to be part of regulation sooner than later. Architects and planners should incorporate green roofs into their designs.

By visiting the Midas Letter Technology Stock, you can read more about how they can improve stormwater management by reducing runoff and improving water quality, conserve energy, mitigate the urban heat island, increase longevity of roofing membranes, reduce noise and air pollution, sequester carbon, increase urban biodiversity by providing habitat for wildlife, provide space for urban agriculture, provide a more aesthetically pleasing and healthy environment to work and live, and improve return on investment compared to traditional roofs.

Wikipedia describes a green roof as a roof of a building that is covered with vegetation and a growing medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane.  Green roofs serve several purposes for a building, such as absorbing rainwater, providing insulation, creating a habitat for wildlife, and helping to lower urban air temperatures and mitigate the heat island effect.
