Landscape architects who specialize in Green and eco friendly landscaping techniques contribute to a cleaner environment and help conserve water and natural resources. Choosing local indigenous plant species reduces irrigation requirements, and choosing drought resistant ground covers that don’t need chemical treatment provides a safe place for kids to play and a safe urban habitat for birds, bees and small mammals. Collecting rainwater from eavestroughs can be stored in rain barrels and provide water for irrigating gardens. Edible landscaping and urban food production in small spaces provides a use for kitchen waste composting while saving money and reducing the need for agriculture and fossil fuels for food transportation. The LEED for home rating system awards points for rainwater harvesting, drought resistant landscaping and growing food at home.
