But no, let's cut them down to build one more lane, right?

The rationale being that we would have more trees if we didn't have so many roads?
Not even roads, parking lots man, tons and tons of empty unused space
Not fewer roads (It's still important to have good street grid connectivity and small block sizes), but narrower roads and smaller parking lots.
yeah I mean the car is the parked car is what had the highest temperature.
76.1° holy shit
I have a Honda civic, which was sold to me with defective air conditioning, which was never covered by the warranty because fuck Honda. My phone literally overheats and stops working. I’ve almost had heat stroke multiple times just trying to get to fucking work.
What happens when you drive with all windows down?
It gets to be 98 degrees instead of 101 degrees.
Have you tried to open the window(s)?
It's kind of hilarious how awful your life is; thanks for sharing, offer of hugs.
Spoken by someone who's never been to a place that doesn't naturally have trees.
How was this measured?
It appears to have been done with a small temperature measuring device.
oh interesting. This was hard for me to see. I wonder about the car that's stopped in the road, though. Did he really go measure it?
I think it's just parked on the side of the road?
Need to plant more trees.
When water shortage is a concern a simple manufactured shade is a sufficient alternative. People can't be expected to walk when it is over 40C under direct sunlight.
"Lane"? Do you have any idea how many green spaces and trees are being destroyed to build WEF "densified" condos everywhere?
Holy crap 76,100 degrees 😱
If the road is 48°C, so is the parking lot lol
It's the metal/glass of the car, not the parking lot?
