1. How can the heat island effect on the roof of a building be reduced?

Explanation

Painting the roof with a high SRI (Solar Reflectance Index) coating can reduce the heat island effect on the roof of a building. High SRI coatings have the ability to reflect a larger portion of the solar radiation that falls on the roof, reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the building. This helps to keep the building cooler and reduces the energy required for cooling. By reflecting more sunlight, the high SRI coating helps to mitigate the urban heat island effect, which is the phenomenon of cities being significantly warmer than surrounding rural areas due to human activities and lack of vegetation.
