    Here are all the ways I could think of what people can do to protect themselves from extreme heat for when their at home even though they have a decent air conditioning or maybe a strong air conditioning and to also help to cool down the planet.
    1. Replace dark coloured roofs with white roofs to get high sunlight reflectivity to keep much cooler automatically.
    2. Use insulated curtains, but make sure those insulated curtain colour is pure white to get a high albedo for the sunlight to be reflected to keep cooler.
    3. Use a fan to air circulate some basement cooler air upstairs and place a fan from your window outside during night time to in bring that cooler and fresher air.
    4. Use plants to regulate humidity and to provide that slight cooling effect through their leaves.
    5. Try using cooling fans that is required to use through only ice but if you are in a dryer climate then use evaporator coolers.
    6. Wear pure white, to reflect heat off of you and have it be slightly wet to keep cool and have a fan blowing on you with it to feel even cooler.
    7. Have cold drinks
    8. Reduce your using your electricity on things that releases the most heat out of them.
    9. Plant trees around your house and if possible try making it so some of the trees can be providing shade on your house roof to keep temperatures from rising on sunny days.
    10. Take cool shower.
    11. Paint your walls white if possible to reflect some extra heat.
    12. Paint certain entrances like the outside of your garage and doors white or even a lighter color to reflect the heat to reduce urban heat island effect to keep heat from entering your home.
    Bonus: Even have your driveway painted a lighter colour over a darker colour to reflect more sunlight and reduce the urban heat island effect from your outside surrounding area so your home can stay a little extra slightly cooler.
    Thank you 😊 and for the extra bonus, let more people know about this so that when they do these ideas and strategies too they can protect themselves from the extreme heat and also help the Earth’s temperatures get reduced faster because all these ideas causes the air conditioners runs much less often which leads to less pollution of CO2 and because with the help of planting more trees it is absorbing more CO2 pollution and storing it into their trunks as food which means less warming for the planet + the trees slight cooling effect through their leafs that is being released into the air overtime helping regulating the temperatures from getting too hot and rising. And another one because there is more sunlight being reflected by using white and even lighter colours helps to reduce urban heat island effect and keep the Earth cooler automatically. 👍

      Wierd how it goes from global cooling to global warming every single year. ITs like some kind of cycle.
      Definately our fault though. We need to listen to our masters and go live in a tiny box. And stop eating.
