Yeah, cities have been heat islands for millennia. This is just another thing on the pile. Plant trees, put solar on roofs, use waste heat for building heat (in cities is basically the only place this makes sense).

Between this and the large swathes of asphalt for driving and parking, of course every city is boiling hot.
Stop routing highways through cities and start making bike lanes, dammit!
And add tree cover!
