Pavements are stupid and absorb heat that would otherwise be reflected. Canals, OTOH, absorb solar radiation and convert it into CO2-devouring plankton. We must eliminate this menace of pavement and replace it with canals filled with standing water posthaste. The future of our climate depends upon it.

E: Realanswer, far better to mandate a minimum % of power be generated by renewable means for power companies within the state. Does it matter if they choose solar or nuclear to do so?
