Low-Cost Cooling Tools Reduce Indoor Heat for Pregnant Women in Pakistan

New research demonstrates simple cooling interventions like canvas canopies and reflective paint can lower indoor temperatures by 3-4°C, offering critical relief during Pakistan's intensifying heatwaves. This approach is vital for low-income communities where electricity and fans are scarce, and vulnerable populations face heightened health risks. Monitoring the long-term adoption and effectiveness of these tools will be essential as climate change continues to escalate heat-related health challenges.
