We analyzed wind, temperature, solar radiation & shading to identify the most climate-responsive layout — one that supports tree growth and long-term resilience.
This kind of early-stage insight is essential to sustainable urban design.
We recently completed a pre-design microclimate analysis for a proposed development along NYC’s High Line — assessing its impact on surrounding planted public spaces.
Using our CityDigitalTwin model, we explored multiple design scenarios.
This. We can draft better policy and codes and make this happen in North America. People deserve better urban design and cities that are walkable and bike-able.
Hi Adam,
That's great.
I will respond to your email I received from Substac.
Thank you,
Rafael
Hi Adam,
This project sounds amazing.
We've worked on heat islands in Montreal. Would be great to connect and share experiences and findings.
Want to design cooler, healthier cities?
We help planners + developers target heat with data-driven solutions.
Let’s talk. We’d love to hear about your project and share how we can help.
#ClimateResilience #UrbanHeat #urbanplanning #cityplanning
Cities are getting hotter—and it’s not just the weather.
Hard surfaces like asphalt + concrete trap heat, creating urban heat islands that put lives and infrastructure at risk.
At Planet Greenleaves, we map where smarter surfaces + shade can cool entire neighborhoods.
This is amazing. As shown in many of the analyses we can do, trees can have a major impact on health, cooling down streets and improving pedestrian comfort. It's good to see that some cities are doing a big effort to plant more trees.
At Planète Greenleaves, we believe that small, thoughtful decisions—when guided by data and grounded in care—create a lasting, compounding impact.

Happy Earth Day
Big changes don’t happen overnight.
But it does begin with—
🌱 one tree at a time,
📊 one analysis at a time,
🌡️ one heat island,
🌆 one region at a time.

This precision in surface-atmosphere data exchange is transformative for urban planning, climate adaptation strategies, and creating truly sustainable development.
Visit our website to learn more about our innovative climate modeling approach.
Our tools capture essential surface-atmosphere phenomena including:
🌊 Transpiration & evaporation
☀️ Radiation dynamics
🏢 Resistance factors
🌱 Subsurface interactions
#UrbanPlanning #CityPlanning
What makes our approach different is our comprehensive analysis of diverse surface types:
Building materials and configurations
Vegetation varieties and densities
Water bodies and their thermal properties
Soil composition variations
Road surfaces and urban materials
#Microclimate #ClimateResilience
Why do surfaces play such a critical role in climate analysis?
Microclimates emerge from the complex interplay between surface characteristics and atmospheric conditions. Accurate modeling requires tools that account for how different surfaces fundamentally shape local climate dynamics.
The longer we wait on climate action, the worse it gets.
⏰ It's time to act.

Ignoring the climate crisis won't make it go away.
The only path to real change is through strong, data-backed reports that show both the risks of inaction and the benefits of solutions.
Digital twins can model scenarios, measure impacts, and bring data into community discussions.
And the disasters continue:
Wildfires in Oklahoma and Texas
Accelerated land subsidence in Oahu
Record temperatures in Australia, Quebec, and British Columbia
Floods in South Africa and Italy
🔴 Yet some governments still hesitate to act. Some even deny the crisis exists.
Since the start of the year, the climate disaster list keeps growing:
New Year floods in England and Wales
Wildfires in Los Angeles
Flooding in São Paulo, Brazil
Flooding in Ukraine
Floods in Bahía Blanca, Argentina
The climate crisis isn't a future problem—it's happening now. 🌎

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Cities are adopting green policies, but face a critical challenge: comprehensive microclimate analyses traditionally require multiple specialized consultants.
Urban planners deserve better tools for building resilient, environmentally conscious cities.

The new Thermal Comfort Guidelines require large developments to consider shade, street design, and air circulation.
More trees = cooler streets = resilient city.

As our cities get hotter, we need solutions to keep urban spaces comfortable. The answer is beautiful and effective: trees! 🌳
Small-Leaved Lime can cool surrounding air by nearly 3°C, making it feel up to 11°C cooler! Strategic placement amplifies this cooling effect.
#UrbanCooling #ClimateAction
The future of urban planning lies in this holistic approach to solar design. When we understand how sunlight shapes our cities, we can create environments that work in harmony with natural patterns – benefiting both residents and the planet.
