My English isn't Englishing atm, bear with me. Heat island effect is caused (amongst other things) due to sealed ground. So replacing asfalt roads, and even brick sealings with green space or even better water, should help regulate temperature. On top of this, instead of white roofs, green roofs are also a good option
Thank you.
We generally have sloped roofs for our homes because of our rainy season. Would green roofs work well there?
Yes, I think it would! Not an expert though, but logically I think that should work! Depends on the angle, though, of course
