Global Cool Cities Alliance (GCCA) is a global initiative dedicated to advancing policies and actions that increase the solar reflectance of buildings and pavements (i.e., cool surfaces) as a low- or no-cost way to promote cool buildings and cool cities, and mitigate the effects of climate change through global cooling. Global Cool Cities Alliance (GCCA) will pursue this mission through the development of four program areas. Using a range of mechanisms (including municipal action and advancements in research and development), these programs act in concert to accelerate the adoption of white roofs and other cool surfaces. Specifically, GCCA’s program areas include:
GCCA was launched in the summer of 2010 and expects to establish offices in either Washington, DC, or San Francisco, CA.
