 May 2005 Guest Feature
Then, the City proved to the local community just how effective green roofs are; a simpler, more affordable extensive green roof system was installed on the Center for Green Technology, one of the first LEED Platinum-certified facilities in the country.
Its green roof (an extensive system) and test pods (not shown) provided the proof the City needed to continue its green roof initiative; during warmer months, the green roofs reduced temperatures and stormwater run-off more than conventional systems.
There are six green roof plots and they’re being monitored as far as their ability to lower the temperatures of the structure underneath them and the ambient temperature compared to a gravel ballast roof, a white reflective roof, and a dark roof.

 Rockford's Newspaper Rock River Times | rockford illinois news information
The FDA has released a detailed report that states “it is highly unlikely that green tea reduces the risk of prostate cancer.”(1) This report is quite enlightening, and we thought it appropriate to share it with Life Extension members.
While the FDA may argue that green tea supplements differ from green tea beverages, the fact is that this placebo-controlled study existed, but was omitted from the FDA’s report.
If the data about green tea and prostate cancer risk turn out to be only partially accurate, the lives of millions of men could be saved and billions of dollars shaved off future health care expenditures.
