Abstract

This report analyses the prospects and barriers of applying ecosystem based
approaches systematically to climate adaptation in urban areas, taking the case of
green roofs in Copenhagen Municipality. It looks at planning aspects of green roofs in
Copenhagen as well as citizen views and preferences regarding green roofs using
policy document analysis, interviews with city planners and deliberative valuation
methods.
