Innovation to Reduce Air Conditioning Use: Exploring Prototype Materials for Sustainable Cooling

Innovation drives human development by replacing more archaic methods, which could be crucial for the evolution of civil construction in Brazil. When aligned with the use of technology, new opportunities open up that can lead to the development of new materials. This book is a literature review that aims to expose and expand knowledge about innovative prototypes that share the purpose of replacing or reducing the use of fans and air conditioning, promoting conscious energy consumption and reducingCO2 emissions.
