What are the effects of concrete jungles on rising temperatures?

Concrete jungles, or Urban Heat Islands, as they are known, hold the heat better. Cities, especially cities with few parks and green belts, are usually warmer than the countryside. This, however, does not affect global warming. Globally temperatures are averaged, and the cooler countryside balances out the warmer cities. Scientists measuring the temperature are always careful to make sure urban heat islands do not influence the temperature trends, which are increasing at the same rate in cities and countryside.

Why are there so little jungles?

The scarcity of jungles, or tropical rainforests, is primarily due to deforestation, climate change, and human encroachment for agriculture and urban development. These ecosystems are also sensitive to environmental changes, making them vulnerable to shifts in temperature and precipitation patterns. Additionally, logging and mining activities further contribute to the degradation of these vital habitats. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect the remaining jungles and their biodiversity.
