Climate-friendly air conditioning inspired by termites
"termite mounds, which consist of thousands of interconnected channels, tunnels and air chambers, and how these capture wind energy in order to 'breathe,' or exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with the surroundings.
Similar structures could be integrated in the walls of buildings to drive the flow of air, heat and moisture in a new way."
