Cities in the Global South are more exposed to extreme heat because they lack cooling green spaces, new research shows. The study found that Global South cities have just 70% of the "cooling capacity" provided by urban greenery in the Global North. The paper, published in the journal Nature Communications, is titled "Green infrastructure provides substantial but unequal urban cooling globally."
Yeah, I hate this. I remember when I was a kid (almost two decades ago), there used to be giant trees all over the city. Now, when you look out the window, it’s just an endless sea of grey.
