I read an article on aging power
grids being overtaxed by hotter summers. It made me think about how much cooler
basements are than the rest of the house, and how some people are lucky enough
to have finished basements. In a pinch, people could always throw some sleeping
bags or cots down there on the hottest summer nights, as sleeping in the
basement might be cooler than sleeping on higher levels.
Some areas aren’t suitable for
building basements: they’re too swampy, or flood-prone, or built on bedrock;
but other people might want to start thinking about using basements to keep
cool.
Contractors, start advertising. And get those excavators fired up.
