ABSTRACT ONLY:
The new California Academy of Sciences building, in San Francisco, has been called the greenest museum in the world because of its undulating, 2.5 acre (1 ha) vegetated roof, its emphasis on environmental sustainability features and its energy-saving technologies. The innovative structure combines a natural history museum, an aquarium, a planetarium, and scientific research operations within one facility.
