The surface area of a lawn is several times that of a concrete surface.
Walking into a forest, I notice the air is several degrees cooler than outside.
Even a house made of clay will be a few degrees cooler in certain weather than one made of concrete due to the increased surface area and evaporation causing cooling.
It isn’t rocket science. Greenery makes the earth a much better place.
