Jennifer Bousselot, Ph.D., of Colorado State University will be a keynote speaker at CitiesAlive 2026 in New York City, presenting Roofscapes Reimagined on green roofs as systems for food production, biodiversity, stormwater management, and renewable energy. Register by June 30 for early bird rates.

CSU researchers find crops protected by solar panels yield more food while plants help cool the panels, making them more efficient at generating electricity

Take a tour of a rooftop laboratory where scientists show how growing crops under solar panels can produce both food and clean energy.

Solar panels tend to get too hot on conventional rooftops, which can reach 150 degrees or higher, and that heat reduces their efficiency. Plants help cool them off.

City council next month will consider a zoning change to allow agriculture in a mixed-use district

The episode features Dr. Jennifer Bousselot, assistant professor at Colorado State University in the Department of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture.

Enough with the urban vs. rural binary. When rurbanization brings agriculture into cities, everyone benefits

In all, the research green roof at the CSU System Spur campus has now produced 204.5 pounds of produce in its initial growing season at the recently opened Terra building.

Conference recordings are now available on the Living Architecture Academy, for only $99 USD for 1 day, and $149 USD for both days

The Symposium on July 29th will feature regionally appropriate green roof design projects and the latest research for the semiarid west

Green roofs are vegetated spaces on top of buildings. They offer many benefits like capturing stormwater, cooling the environment, and supporting biodiversity.

Green Roofs for Healthy Cities (GRHC) is excited to announce the Grey to Green Conference, to be held virtually on June 22 from 10am - 4:30pm and June 23 from 10am - 6pm est.

The Spring Issue is focused on the importance of living architecture projects that are designed for food production

A new scientific field proposes an idea that could help generate food and energy while reducing a building's cooling costs.
