As the world warms, sweltering heat in urban areas endangers people's health and makes daily life unbearable. That's because almost every aspect of how we build cities amplifies heat, from the buildings we live in to the cars we drive. Singapore, which has warmed at twice the global average over the past six decades, is spending enormous resources to try to cool itself down. For example, it designed a 250-acre park that cools a neighborhood where buildings are designed to capture sea breezes and direct them to the pedestrian level.
