But no, let's cut them down to build one more lane, right?
Please also remember how hot that pavement can be for a doggos feet.

"We're gonna pave over the grassy public/dog park for a parking lot, but you can still walk your dogs! Just buy these doggy shoes for when it gets really hot. Problem solved!"
Capitalism is ingenious in creating problems that it sells the solutions for.
Wait, are theses actual measurements? Or made-up numbers?
Given that i have kitchen tools that could do this; yes i expect theyre real.
I think that's what the guy kneeling down at the 27,9 C measurement is doing, recording the temperature of that spot.
My doubt does come in though with the street measurement. The asphalt is cooler than the sidewalk? What? Also, did he go out into the street to take the measurement and then run back? I guess if there were no cars around he could have, but that doesn't seem like a low-traffic area. Just a few weird things about that one detail.

Here they cut them down to make bike lanes.
And before you demand to just take space away from the cars: this is a fast bike lane through a park. The next car is half a kilometer away.
...that is genuinely bad planning, why would they not route the lane through somewhere there aren't trees, like, say next to the trees?
Holy crap 76,100 degrees 😱
