    Cities lined with trees help keep the urban heat island effect down and helps keep cities cool. It’s a shame that one parked car could ruin this for a whole neighborhood street.

      Cities don’t make cities hot, bare pavement makes cities hot.

        It does take someone to illegally park the car on a sidewalk, but recent studies found that the car itself is also partially to blame.

        The underestimated impact of parked cars in urban warming.
