Climate Resolve is hosting a breakthrough event on the global and local benefits of deploying cool surfaces (roofs, walls, and pavement). “Enlisting Sunlight in the Fight Against Climate Change” will cover the potential for cool surface deployment in our built environment to (1) improve the Earth’s global energy budget by reflecting sunlight back to space, mitigating the greenhouse effect; and (2) protect public health by cooling temperatures at the local scale, lessening the urban heat island effect.
