Why Passive Heating and Cooling?
Extreme weather creates more demand for heating and cooling. Current air conditioning, refrigerating and heating systems use electricity, contributing to global warming. There's a better way, and we can get there together!
At SolarFool.org, we recognize the urgent need for passive heating and cooling systems. Through open source innovation, our goal is to replace polluting HVAC systems worldwide with elegant, affordable and non-polluting passive systems, based on Steve Baer's technology that we're calling 'CoolSky'.
