English: Passive daytime radiative cooling surfaces (PDRC) are efficient in solar reflectance and heat emittance to cool temperatures with zero energy consumption or pollution. Local application of PDRCs can replace air conditioning and mitigate urban heat island effect, while widespread application has been proposed as a solution to global warming.
This diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}. It is recommended to name the SVG file “Passive daytime radiative cooling diagram.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
