Passive Cooling A cool paintBrent GrocholskiConceptual drawing of combined evaporative-radiative cooling paint. The top and exterior of buildings can be used to passively cool, but this requires materials with the right properties to do so effectively. Fei et al. designed a paint that cools both radiatively and through evaporation and that appears to keep buildings relatively cool even in humid environments.
