Question

Which of the following would be most effective at reflecting sunlight from earth's surface?A. dark-colored parking lotB. snow-covered fieldC. forestD. jungle

Answer 1

In this case, we have that darker colors absorb light and lighter colors reflect it, in earth's case we have an effect called albedo, which implies, the amount of light that the planet surface reflects back, the poles are the areas that reflect most of this energy and therefore highly important for earth's temperature/radiation regulation. Therefore taking this into account we can say that the correct answer is option B.
