    That’s not disproving what the article said. Heating can dominate while the impacts of white roofs are still beneficial.

    For one, the sun is far more active in summer than winter, especially further up north.

      That’s just complete bullshit. The sun’s activity doesn’t have anything to do with what the position of the earth is at any given time.
