    Article paywalled, can't read, it starts with white paint on buses.

    Reflective white paints on building may cool by a few degrees.

    Also, better to use district cooling, heard that buildings in Dubai/middle-east use district cooling.

    Most of the liquids/gases used for heatpumps have extremely hight GWP (Global Warming Potential), best to use CO2, Ammonia or Water (for industrial or district).
