One of the most practical and effective ways to accomplish sustainability and green-living, even in an urban environment, is through natural ventilation. What is natural ventilation? In simple terms, natural ventilation is a method of allowing fresh outdoor air into living spaces without the use of air conditioning units and other types of mechanically driven devices. Another term associated with natural ventilation is “passive cooling”, which refers to designs that do not use complicated or sophisticated mechanical equipment in order to induce comfortable conditions in a building interior. A good and simple example is building large open windows in a home instead of incorporating air conditioning units.
