Sustainable cooling offers a climate-friendly solution to combat rising global temperatures while reducing emissions. 

Traditional air conditioning systems worsen climate change by releasing harmful gases, but sustainable cooling focuses on energy efficiency and eco-friendly refrigerants. 

Key strategies include redesigning buildings for natural cooling, using passive technologies like green roofs, and adopting innovations such as elastocaloric materials for energy-efficient cooling. 

Policymakers can support these efforts through incentives like sustainable building codes and subsidies. 

Sustainable cooling is critical for health, agriculture, and productivity, with the potential to cut emissions significantly and help achieve Paris Agreement climate targets.
