roof modification

Reflective surfaces, or ground-based albedo modification (GBAM), is a solar radiation management method of enhancing Earth's albedo (the ability to reflect the visible, infrared, and ultraviolet wavelengths of the Sun, reducing heat transfer to the surface). The IPCC described this method as "whitening roofs, changes in land use management (e.g., no-till farming), change of albedo at a larger scale (covering glaciers or deserts with reflective sheeting and changes in ocean albedo)."
The most well-known type of reflective surface is a type of roof called the "cool roof". While cool roofs are mostly associated with white roofs, they come in a variety of colors and materials and are available for both commercial and residential buildings.

    No roof rails...

    I'm looking to fit roof bars on my MG ZS 70 plate but all racks are only compatible with rails whereas my car is smooth. Has anyone had this issue? The ZS roof is curved so i've struggled to find a roof rack that fits. Or is there a company that will add roof rails to my car? MG have been no help.
