We require state level (think of war) mobilization to properly combat all aspects of climate change. Streets in city centers should be lined with trees, research is required to find a suitable alternative to asphalt -- or perhaps a way to simply make our streets less black. I'd even support research into ways to artificially construct wind tunnels using tall buildings.

In my city they cut down 10 meters of gardens around blocks of flats to make room for parking cars. Nobody bats an eye because parking is a bigger problem for them.
