This article discusses the environmental problems of our time, in connection with the increase in population and cities and the impact of global urbanization on the global climate change of the Earth and its use to reduce surface temperature by increasing the albedo reflectivity of urban surfaces. The study improved previous similar works due to the global spatial coverage of all settlements of the Earth's development and developed a comprehensive assessment of the degree of influence and detailed measurements of 15 parameters of modifications of surface albedo calculations using data developed by the Research Institute of Building Physics of the CIS and using satellite sensing Google Earth Pro, from a height of 5 km. As a result of the study, it was found that the urbanized territories of the Earth amounted to - 0.1514% of the Earth's area and the heat release from the development of the whole world will decrease by - 7.8 million MW, which will be -8.6 Gt CO2. The average value of the Earth's temperature will decrease by 0.003°C in a year and by 2100 by 0.35°C. This measure is recommended as an addition to the main approaches to solving the climate problem.
Key words: global urbanization (Gu) / climate change / albedo / area of cities
