The smart hippies over at Inhabitat point us to SolCool’s Millennia air-conditioner, which uses solar power to cool your home. Uhm, we think that's how it works. Basically, the "SolCool system has the same output capacity to a two ton air conditioning system but uses 85% less energy than equivalent high efficiency air conditioners.." There are also spendy solar panels and jet pack-looking devices involved. Not sure if our landlady will be getting herself up on our roof to install this anytime soon, but perhaps some green developer would be interested.
