Traditional Cooling methods in Modern buildings | The Cooling Web | DTE Call For Action

The world is experiencing record breaking temperatures. July 2023 was recorded as the hottest month globally; March 2023 India received its first heatwave of the year and World Meteorological Organisation predicts there will be even hotter times in the next five years. This means more and more air-conditioners to cope with the heat. This not only places a public health threat but upsets the energy budget of the country.
