| summary | The urban heat island effect — defined as the difference in temperature between the core of Louisville and its suburbs — contributes to heat-related illnesses and deaths and leads to higher air-conditioning bills for residents, according to a study released in April 2016. Urban heat in Louisville is rising at one of the fastest rates in the country. There are specific actions residents can take to help reduce urban heat. Here, residents can search to find the specific number of actions, such as the number of trees planted or cool roofs installed, recommended in their neighborhoods to help manage urban heat. The columns represent the number of each action recommended per neighborhood to help reduce the urban heat. The columns represent the number of each action recommended per neighborhood to help reduce the urban heat. https://louisvilleky.gov/government/sustainability/urban-heat-island-project |
