It's called transpiration. It is how the plants keep their temperature below the point at which photosynthesis no longer is possible.

- wruza 5y agoTIL. But that means plants move heat somewhere, and not pack it into chemical bonds. This maybe defeats the idea, because these areas are cold because they are rare. If ubiquitous, in a still hot day they would just raise humidity and probably make things worse?
- peterbraden 5y agoNot at all. The areas where they are ubiquitous, which we normally call forests, are still cool.
