Includes bibliographical references

The question as to whether the literal greening of buildings has a measurable environmental benefit is explored in an effort to detail what impact green wall systems have on the environment. It is demonstrated that green walls hold environmental benefits currently not well-known, recognized, or harnessed by urban planners, policymakers, green infrastructure advocates, the building community, and others by looking to the ecosystem services framework. Using the four types of ecosystem services as a framework for analysis, the green wall is shown to have measurable benefits in most areas, and perhaps most substantially in climate regulation. As such, the green wall should not only be actively used as a green infrastructure element, it should be part of a climate mitigation strategy. A look to design strategies as well as applicable urban and regional building and planning codes is provided as a means of suggesting how jurisdictions can concretely harness the benefits of green walls.
