Time to start growing a rainforest in my backyard.

    You joke but it would take a couple of degrees off. If, for whatever reason, the soil was naturally moist, maybe even a few more thanks to transpiration.

    I used to plant urban trees for a living so we would rattle off all the stats about temperature control, increased property values etc in the urban landscape and get back "WHAT ABOUT THE LEAVES!!".

    Always hated that comeback when talking about trees around peoples houses, not like raking them up is the end of the world and neither is clearing out your gutters from time to time.
