The article focuses on strategies effective in arid climates. In California, evaporative coolers worked really well for us except on the hottest days. No way they'd work for us here on the US East Coast.

OTOH, I'm pretty enthusiastic about the exchange systems that circulate fluids to exchange heat with soil beneath home. That's a really reasonable approach.




The best part about southern california is even if its 100 during the day, it will be a brisk and breezy 70 once the sun sets.
