Here's your chance not just to be the mayor, but the original city planner as well! Imagine a medium sized city that would be developed with modern, low carbon transportation in mind, and other strategies to reduce the average citizens' carbon footprints.
What would that city look like? Would that make you more likely to want to live there?

black asphalt
black asphalt traps heat which is a small contributor to climate change, what can we do to prevent this?
Good question. Maybe make the roads out of concrete? 
That would be a huge investment though. However black asphalt does make nice roads for Thanos Car to drive on!
There has been a movement to cover black tops and roads in lighter concrete or paint to help with the heat in urban areas and cities. I guess they are covering areas in some cities and it has helped with energy and air conditioning demand around the streets they painted.
