Why a Green Wall?

There are many reasons why a green wall is beneficial. Not only do vertical gardens provide you with all of the benefits that traditional horizontal gardens do, they can help to improve theeffects a building has on the environment. Plants are capable of improving the quality of air by absorbing harmful pollutants and CO2 and emitting clean oxygen. Also, plants can help to improve comfort by stabilizing humidity. A green wall on a building will act as insulation-absorbing heat from the sun , "deaden and diffuse noise, make grafitti impossible, cut heat and glare, hold or slow rainwater...proccess carbon dioxide, while providing food and shelter for wildlife."
