    Great effort. Heat is a real problem. If inventions can create cooler atmosphere that will be very helpful.

    Great to have such products that cater to South East Asian weather.

    Urban Warming. When cities replace natural land cover with dense concentrations of pavement, buildings, and other surfaces that absorb and retain heat.

    How about having solar powered fans installed on lamp posts along pavements? 😀

    Reflective heat can be cooling for building inside but it still doesn't lower the heat outside the surrounding building.

    Does the Solar Nova project, installing solar panels on HDB roof tops, contributing to warmer temperatures?

    Singapore is getting hotter is not weather or climate driven, its cause by human. For this case, its Singapore Government. Over building is the primary cause. Forested land, bushes and fields hv the ability to absorb and reduced the Sunlight heat. When they are demolised to give way for concrete structures . Heat will be trapped in the day and released back to the surrounding at night. Higher temperatures is not the only cause, flooding is the other serious cause. Government policy of over poppulating Singapore is the culprit. An irresponsible act.
