For our last look at “Ohio Grows” for #America250Ohio, check out one of Ohio’s largest green roofs: Columbus Commons! Six of its nine acres sit atop an underground garage. Built in 2010, it quickly became a downtown hub, welcoming 300,000 visitors its first season. #greenroofs
A view of Columbus, Ohio's downtown skyline on a cloudy day, featuring tall buildings like the LeVeque Tower. In the foreground is the Scioto Mile, a large green park with pathways and sparse trees.

This image is a cross-sectional diagram of a green roof system. It includes layers labeled from top to bottom: Vegetation, Growing Medium, Irrigation, Drainage Layer and Filter Fabric, Root Barrier, Waterproofing Membrane, and Structural Deck. Each layer is visually distinct, and plants are shown growing at the top.

A close-up of fallen autumn leaves covers the ground. In the background, an out-of-focus view shows brick buildings and tall trees. The scene suggests an urban environment during fall.

Check out the #greenroof at Ohio University’s Schoonover Center as we highlight “Ohio Grows" this month for #America250Ohio. Its glaring, white roof was replaced with plant beds that support campus research and provide environmental benefits. A living roof that grows with Ohio!

A large group of people is gathered outdoors on a grassy area with trees and a body of water in the background. They are posing together, smiling, and dressed in casual and business attire. The setting appears peaceful and natural.

#RCRA turns 50! Since Oct. 21, 1976, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act set national standards for waste minimization, recycling, and safe disposal. Today, #OhioEPA continues to use this landmark legislation for environmental protection around the state!
