      It’s been well known for a long time, even just a few trees down a road can make a HUGE difference to the local temperature.

        There was a discussion recently for the incentivisation of getting people to keep their gardens natural (especially in regards to disincentivising people paving over and astroturfing their lawns).

          The disincentive for AstroTurfing your garden should be 6 months in Wormwood Scrubs. Another 12 for each repeat offence.

            Likewise we should have strict rules on how much of your front garden can be covered, and the amount of permeability that coverage can have.
