Summer is in full power here in Kerala, India. Concrete radiating heat and rooms are hot even at night.
Have seen people mention things like blackout curtains, reflective or white paint on the roof etc.
Have upped hydration and am now sleeping with windows open, with a mat on the floor.
What all things do the people in your locality do? Or if you have any specific insight into cost-effective techniques or so, could you kindly share them?
Thanks in advance
In 105+ summers in texas we just crank the AC
AC is a luxury in some parts of the world, though it is by far the best way to both cool down an area and reduce humidity.
I know a farmer in the Texas hill country, where humidity is bonkers as well. He wakes up early and works a good while until about ~10 am, when it starts to get unbearable outside. He then takes a longggggg lunch/nap/relaxation break inside his house in the A/C. Then when it’s around about 3-4 pm, he works outside some more until it’s dark and calls it a day.
