"With its zinc roofs and minimal tree cover, Paris was not built to handle the new era of extreme heat.” Here is what Jeff Goodell, author of “The Heat Will Kill You First,” says today about the French capital in an article by Yale School of Environnement.

Today, we are pleased that the author considers initiatives like Roofscapes as part of the solution for scalable passive cooling.
