【 摘 要 】

The sustainable development is the observance to the principles of respect for nature, environmental protection and respensible approach to social and economic standards of urban development. Green roofs are an important and inherent aspect of such development. For current and especially future climate conditions they are also represent a signification factor of water management and are one of the ways to keep cities habitable for future generations as well. Green roofs can efficiently retain water and gradually release it back into the environmental in a place where was a driving rain without water affected site literally just flowed. The desired side effect of the process may be overall cooling of the environmental. Simultaneously, the vegetation constructions contribute to the elimination of the so-called heat island effect, and thus contribute to the natural change of water.
