The easiest and cheapest means of reducing warming is increasing vegetation in rural areas; eliminating bare soil, especially the millions of acres produced by industrial agriculture, addressing erosion and aridification, and restoring forests, which will also increase fire-resistance, reducing the need for the far-more complex and expensive changes required in suburban and urban areas.

Thus, the conversion of sunlight into heat is the source that creates heat islands, and increasingly warms the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases, trap that heat like a pot lid, exacerbating warming. But to reduce the elevated temperatures we are experiencing, we need to address the source of the heat generation, akin to turning down the stove.
