Budgeting Climate Action
What We Have & What We Need
Make Sterling Heights Cool
The aim of this activity is to identify technologies, structures, and activities that reduce the urban heat island effect.
For each technology, structure, or activity, you may decide whether it is more likely to increase or decrease heat. Then, you're asked to consider whether that particular technology, structure, or activity is more appropriate in city or residential settings; there may not be a "correct" answer for this component, but the feedback will be helpful in determining future applications.
