>At least bouncing it back into the environment doesn't add heat.
It does though. In fact it is such a huge problem that we literally design entire buildings around mitigating that part. You should look up "heat islands". Reflecting this heat back into the environment in an urban setting is not a great idea.

Well that heat energy needs to go somewhere which means it'll reflect back into the environment creating even hotter heat islands around cities and shit
