The Global Warming Potential of Geoengineering via Radiative Cooling

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
The cooling power of engineered radiative cooling materials is determined and compared to conventional construction and roofing materials and Earth's natural surfaces. Results show if 1% of Earth's surface are to be covered with state‐of‐the‐art radiative cooling materials the terrestrial radiative forcing would decrease by 1.61 W·m−2 (from 0.6 to −1 ...
