Why in the big cities hotter weather.

Hi, steemians. Today we'll talk a little bit about the climate!

I arrived in my town about 4:30 in the morning. It was a little cool and pleasant on the street. Although I was a little tired after the journey. The buses start going at 5:30 in the morning, so I had plenty of time to reach home on foot and on the way to think different thoughts.

Sometimes I get lucky more and I'm going back home by bus and not on foot :))

On the way home, I remembered a conversation with my girlfriend. Now no matter what we talked about, I just remember the phrase she told me. She said that her village is much cooler than in the city. The difference is 60 kilometers (approximately 43 miles) - this is not a very big difference in distance. Why is the weather different?


Still very early. Normal people are asleep at this time :)

As I walked home, I thought about the fact that the reason for high temperatures is the city! In big cities, many roads and many buildings. In good cities, lots of trees and parks. In poor cities a few of them!

What is your city? Good or bad?

Many broadband roads. Is it good or bad? I went on a 6 lane road and it reminded me of the little desert. But we create these roads and then start to complain that we are changing the climate. This is we change it!


Road and desert

I want to say that even in the desert something is growing. On the roads, nothing grows.
In big cities, many roads. Also, a lot of wide roads. All this creates a comfortable environment for the formation of the hot climate in the summer.

I was in the village was talking about my girlfriend. There's a lot of trees and grass. Also near the forest. In short, I am sure that the cause of the elevated temperatures in cities is roads and concrete buildings. Roofs which are also very hot at summer.

I would have to talk separately about Parking for cars. There are Parking huge in size, belonging to the car manufacturers. While they built roads, large Parking lots and concrete structures - the climate is getting hotter and hotter. It's not the sun bad! We destroy it with our hands.


Desert from roads = parking

Look at these Parking. Why are there no trees? This can be done conveniently so that they do not interfere with the cars. But it is not profitable!


It's good idea! Right?

Here is a small example of how it could look like a big Parking lot. But I would also add to the trees! The more the better! A large number of trees will give a large number of shadows. But to somebody it is necessary?


This is the main conclusion which I realized while I was walking home after a long journey. Please write what you think about it! Thank you for your attention and have a great day!
