| | Interlocking Concrete Pavers can help reduce urban heat islands (thermal difference between urban and rural areas), while also minimizing the impacts on microclimates and wildlife habitats. This is accomplished through increased albedo (a measure of solar radiation reflected from a surface) or using a pavement system with less than 50% imperviousness. |
Using light colored concrete paving effectively reduces the ambient air temperature and therefore the energy required for cooling buildings and helps to maintain existing wildlife habitats and migration corridors. Consider Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavers to help reduce stormwater runoff by allowing stormwater to infiltrate and recharge the ground water rather than burden a municipal stormwater and sewer system.
