When it is summer it is common to see people using a lot of ACs in order to keep themselves cool. While doing so, they may realize that they are running up huge bills of electricity and also leaving a huge carbon print behind them.
Thus, the Briz Solar powered Air-Conditioner uses water as a coolant and the water mist is used to humidify and cool the room in an easy and natural method. However, unfortunately for designers Nari Kim and Pullip Lim, the water based air conditioners are used widely in New Delhi already. Most people who cannot afford to use electrical air conditioners get a water based air conditioner.

“Forest AC” air conditioning system by Nissan could be the next big thing in the world of automobiles. Perhaps you would no longer need the cigarette smelling Air Conditioned air that sits in your car anymore. The device comes with an automotive climate control setup which not only controls temperature, but also aroma, and humidity along with other ambient factors.
The idea was to create an atmosphere within the car that influences the physiological state of the driver and other passengers. The aroma of fragrant wood and leaves makes you attentive, and yet you would be calm and composed. This would not only avoid gruesome road accidents but also keep you in a state of mind that is incomparable.

Ask travel freaks: What gives immense pleasure to their soul? And obvious repartee would be undergoing a cruise and exploring the hidden geographies. But little were they aware that they would get a chance to enjoy a luxurious trip at the Amazon until a company called Aqua Expeditions came up with one. A province was formerly impervious to the trinkets of 280-thread-count sheets and en-suite air conditioning. The company’s boat dubbed as the M/V Aqua looks like a suspended boutique lodge with a dining room, indoor and outdoor reclines and a surveillance deck and boutique.
Developed and designed by Peruvian architect Jordi Puig, this vessel has eight groups and four master suites that feature huge windows, thereby offering its inhabitants a 180-degree view of the waterway landscape.
Voyages on this yacht are typically planned around the swamped season that fall between June-November and dry season between December-May. These tours are for three, four and seven nights and begin in Iquitos, Peru.
It offers a pre-dinner cocktails fun to its customers in the under-sky lounge followed by a Peruvian food cooked by one of Lima’s hottest chefs! It would cost you $1950 per person or more depending upon the facilities asked for.

Come summers and you start missing those wintery moments of sitting under the shade of the tree enjoying some cool snacks while on your way to back home. If you also happen to fall in the similar category them here I have an ultimate solution for you. Dubbed as the IntelliCool outdoor air conditioner, the standalone unit looks no less than outdoor lamps that do function as lights. Now you would counter me saying lamps producing cooling effect and to your much dismay I will give an affirmative response. And the device primary functionary is to spread coolness and lightning is just a part and parcel of the project.
The company claims it being the first ever outdoor air conditioners designed using a special water evaporation technology. With the help of this technology, the fans can actually cool the air in your garden, making it more pleasant on a hot summer day.
