[best] - Albedo

To combat this, many urban planners are now advocating for "cool roofs"—painting rooftops white or using light-colored materials to increase the city's albedo, which can lower local temperatures and reduce the energy needed for air conditioning. 4. The Planetary Perspective

If the Greenland Ice Sheet (which holds 8 feet of sea level rise) and the West Antarctic Ice Sheet cross an albedo tipping point, their complete loss becomes irreversible on human timescales. We will have effectively removed the planet’s sunglasses. Albedo

Light-colored building envelopes reduce cooling load. Dynamic albedo (electrochromic or thermochromic surfaces) can adapt to seasons. To combat this, many urban planners are now
