Abstract
Green urban spaces are the major reasons for more healthy and sustainable city , however the urban development cities suffers from the rapid increases in the urbanization , and decreasing in the ratio of the green space which leads to a delay in the development process in all the aspects economically, socially and also environmentally by increasing in the temperature degrees. The main aim of this study is to put an outline to increase the share of green area and spaces by applying the concept of green roof and urban roof farming in addition to enhance some of the environmental problem such as air pollution, solid waste along with high temperature in the building using design builder program to mitigate the climate change and adapt to reduce the air pollution the environmental and carbon as well as greenhouses gases before using the urban roof farming and after which will be a way to achieve more sustainable and healthy cities.
