Why are Some Cities Painting their Roads White
For centuries, city homeowners have continued to install white roofs to reduce the buildup of heat. And with the sweltering summertime surrounding the city, people seek newer, more innovative ways to beat the heat.According to in-depth research, the systematic and strategic replacement of dark surfaces with white ones can help lower heat waves by at least 2 degrees Celsius and possibly even more. It is valid for cities, as well as rural areas. Here we discuss in-depth the concept and logic behind painting the roads white:
To Sum it UpLos Angeles is the first city to experiment with the phenomenon of lowering heatwaves via white-painted roads. As a consequence of its positive result, cities outside of LA that experience hot weather, such as Phoenix, consider following their example.Currently, other cities are keeping a close look at how each test area fares. The locations, however, are 15 in total, with each being at least a block long and present in low-traffic areas.
