Other advantages of the Green Roof would be its ability to filter rainwater runoff, reducing dirty water reaching our reservoirs and to absorb and retain rainwater, preventing high volumes of rainwater from being discharged into drains, resulting in flash floods. The Green Roofs also help to filter and improve our air quality as well as provide new habitats for insects, birds and animals that could have lost their natural homes to development and upgrading of buildings.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/elmich.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/News-Science-Centre01.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8894\" src=\"http:\/\/elmich.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/News-Science-Centre01-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"News - Science Centre01\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elmich.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/News-Science-Centre01-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/elmich.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/News-Science-Centre01-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/elmich.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/News-Science-Centre01.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThrough thought provoking visuals and by providing an enjoyable learning experience, Elmich hopes to encourage the children to do their part in caring for our environment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&nbsp; Through sponsoring the installation of a Green Roof at the Science Centre\u2019s Eco-Garden, Elmich hopes to reach out to the young of the modern day society and instill in them a sense of interest about the environment.
