ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS-III Environment: rising heat extremes and cooling demand create a climate dilemma, since conventional air-conditioning raises emissions and energy load. Policy responses such as sustainable cooling, passive design and heat action plans, promoted through UNEP-led platforms like the Cool Coalition, link to India's Cooling Action Plan. The way forward is heat-resilient urban planning, efficient low-GWP refrigerants and wider public awareness.
