Yes, if makers of exterior paints, for example, put an albedo number on the can it would be helpful to concerned buyers. Or stores themselves could include albido info on the shelves.
Also, just for comfort, I would like to see parking lot blacktop replaced with a light gray top. Pitch black lots heat up fast, and can be pretty uncomfortable to walk across on warm, sunny days.
They had better than 20% participation in December of 2011, the first year of the program which started October of that year. I haven't found more recent data. BTW, the passport includes state recreation areas and boat launches in addition to parks.
Hard to say. It would depend on whether the operator was a non-profit or a business. In fact, they key would be whether this was run by a city or county using land it already owned (possibly in partnership with a non-profit). I'd guess land is too expensive for a private enterprise to start from scratch.
