同样，在印度西部人口超过700万的艾哈迈达巴德市，政府发起了一项在屋顶涂刷反光油漆的大规模行动，目的是降低“热岛”温度，这些被称之为热岛的城市区域可以吸收太阳的热量，让城市生活，哪怕是夜间的城市生活都变得无法忍受。
Similarly, in Ahmedabad, a city of over seven million people in Western India, authorities have launched a major initiative to cover roofs in reflective paint to lower temperatures on “heat islands,” urban areas that trap the sun’s warmth and make city living unbearable, even at night.
