Turns Out, #Paving Over Everything Only Makes #HeatWaves Worse
Urban #heatislands make #greenspace a necessity as #cities adapt to rising temperatures. https://jalopnik.com/turns-out-paving-over-everything-only-makes-heat-waves-1850695515

How #concrete, #asphalt and #urban #heatislands add to the misery of #heatwaves https://www.reuters.com/graphics/CLIMATE-CHANGE/URBAN-HEAT/zgpormdkevd/
In hot places, the ground can heat to higher #temperatures than the air, which causes severe burns to someone who stumbles or accidentally touches a surface. For Reuters, Mariano Zafra describes the absorption and release of energy with a series of graphics.

But one of the great things about where I live in #Montreal is all the #trees (mostly deciduous) which provide shade in summer preventing or mitigating #HeatIslands especially welcome with #ClimateChange. It is noticebly cooler under the canopy. Earlier this summer someone pointed out to me that without large human settlement Montreal would largely be boreal forest, not grassland or meadow which my #garden gestures at.

Suburbia has a tree aversion. Experts believe tree clearing on private land is undoing the good work done in public spaces. Stop felling #trees in backyards.
