How Buildings Impact Climate Change Beyond Emissions: A New Study Unveils Hidden Effects

Doug McIntyre discusses a new study showing that large buildings, when heated or cooled, directly affect the temperature of the surrounding air, independent of greenhouse gas emissions. This new understanding highlights yet another way human activity contributes to climate change, beyond what was previously recognized. The study, published in Nature, emphasizes how urban environments can drive temperature changes, adding a fresh dimension to the ongoing climate crisis.
