...houses this way...
All this passive cooling instead of using A/C would have a huge impact on energy usage.
I reckon that if we could capture and store the #AtmosphericRiver and #Flashflood/#Monsoon-type #rainfalls regionally, that would also be a huge game-changer.

I am not saying that the impact of doing all that on e.g. the global amount of precipitation or the climate will be measurable.
However, I believe that mass-implementing #microclimate technology can be a game change, e.g. for #permaculture. 1) [link follows shortly]
Another example I've read and talked about in my TL is a city in Italy that uses coble-stone...

I've read about the roofed canals, too.
I believe that humanity needs to think much bigger and use #Agrivoltaics wherever possible. (In fact, we could call the swimming panels and the roofed canals #Aquavoltaics.
As I've researched for my thread, agrivoltaics creates #microclimates, likewise irrigated gardens like the ones built by the #Moors in southern Spain, e.g. #Granada.
Picture this 4 almost any fields, rivers, and reservoirs, as well as some coastal regions...still micro?
