A Hot Time for Cool Roofs (Likable Science)

A Hot Time for Cool Roofs; Passive Cooling from Highly Reflective Roof Coatings Reduces Temperatures and Saves Money, Energy, and Lives (Likable Science). The host for this show was Jay Fidell. The guest was Ethan Allen.
The discussion was: How technologies from simple white paint to adaptive radiative photonic coatings counteract the urban heat island effect more efficiently, and at lower costs, than many other cooling approaches
The takeaway was: 'Cool roof' technologies offer relatively simple, low-cost ways to address multiple aspects of climate change and should be encouraged, promoted, and incentivized widely.
