Require green rooves and solar panel shelters in all car parks

Require green rooves and solar panel shelters in all car parks — 715 signatures. Status: open.

Petition background

Require all car park operators to build green roof and solar panel parking shelters which could reduce the need to use farmland for solar farms and support biodiversity.

Additional details

Trees have been up-rooted to make way for housing, and fields are being used for solar farms. This doesn't just impact wildlife but also has an impact on us too. We think need to do something now. Green roofing can give wildlife a chance to thrive by building small gardens on top of a conventional shelter, transforming unused roof space into an eco-friendly infrastructure. These could also hold small sections of solar panels, reducing the need to build on unused land.
