<h4>Biodiversity</h4>
<h4>Biodiversity</h4>
<p>Biodiversity opportunities are optimized by planting a variety of species. General advice on this has been prepared by the City of Toronto[https://www1.toronto.ca/City%20Of%20Toronto/City%20Planning/Zoning%20&%20Environment/Files/pdf/B/biodiversegreenroofs_2013.pdf]. In the long term, the richness of species increases owing to 'volunteer species'. The desirability of this diversity varies with the aesthetic concerns of the green roof owner. </p>
