A brief presentation on the potential job creation role of Green Roofs, Solar Thermal Installations and Elastomeric roof painting (white roofs) in Vancouver's inner city.
13. Elastomeric Coatings (White Roofs) A great low cost alternative that increases the longevity of buildings, saves energy and creates low-skill jobs ideal for many inner-city residents with experience in construction and painting.

15. Elastomeric Coatings (White Roofs) A cost effective alternative to green roofs, elastomeric coatings protect buildings from thermal wear and tear and reduces the urban heat island effect.
16. Solar Thermal Solar thermal works all year round to reduce energy costs. Many of the skills needed in installations (plumbing, construction, electrical) are found in the DTES population as well.
