"What if...?" can be a powerful, but complex, question.
During #COVID19, we've relied on mathematical models to forecast its impact.
The @blackarcs asked, 'what if we could help do it better?' Working with @UNB experts, they've done just that.

@JonathanDunnett@kelseyarolfe The EPA says that shade can make a difference of 11-25 degrees celsius. Heat islands may not be a huge issue for Canada yet, but investing in urban forests and green infrastructure will help mitigate them and a host of other related issues.
For the next 6 – 9 weeks, these companies will work closely with our government partners; @rta_dubai, @DHA_Dubai, @etisalat Digital, @dewaofficial and @DMunicipality to explore, innovate and re-shape the future.
