; UHI Landmarks
: '''The 'Cool Rooves' NYC''' → A program that has "Painted Millions of Square Feet" of roofs white, "Reducing Energy Bills" and "Saving Lives" during summer.
: '''Singapore’s 'Garden City' ''' → (See Article 536). Singapore uses "Vertical Greenery" on every skyscraper to "Combat UHI" in a tropical climate.
: '''Pavement 'Cooling' Paint''' → (Los Angeles). Coating "Black Streets" with a "Gray Reflective Sealant" to "Cool the Ground" where people walk.
: '''Urban 'Wind' Corridors''' → (Stuttgart, Germany). Designing the city with "Gaps" and "Parks" that "Invite the Wind" from the mountains to "Flush out" the heat.
