A YouTuber transformed a discarded 14,000-BTU window AC and 2,000 feet of buried PEX into an unconventional geothermal cooling system.

Global AC demand will inevitably accelerate as the world continues to warm amid the climate crisis The greenest campaigners against climate change have long suffered from a crippling shortcoming: they ...

Last week I revealed the sneaky physics behind the “joule thief,” an electrical circuit that lets you squeeze more energy out of seemingly dead batteries. The key, it turned out, was a clever pairing ...

In July 2026, social media posts claimed U.S. President Donald Trump confused the words "transistor" and "transgender" during a speech criticizing the CHIPS and Science Act, a 2022 bipartisan effort ...

Air conditioning will be keeping millions of Americans safe and comfortable over the holiday weekend as a heat dome brings dangerous conditions to millions. But not everyone has access to the cooling ...

For decades, people in the UK tended to view air conditioning as something that belonged elsewhere. It was associated with office buildings, hotels and hotter countries rather than their own homes.

First there’s the hum and then the cool air. It’s something most Americans enjoy without a moment’s thought: air conditioning. In the suburbs and across major cities, the buzzing machines are ...

London — Many Europeans have long seen air conditioning as an unnecessary, costly, carbon emissions-heavy indulgence. But as the continent's summers get hotter, claiming more lives as they do, that ...

This summer, the transatlantic culture war has fixated on an unlikely flash point: air-conditioning. Some commentators in the United States have taken the opportunity to lecture Europeans, and perhaps ...

IBM unveiled a 7Å transistor architecture that uses staggered nanosheet transistors stacked on a precisely beveled angle, almost like tiles on a roof. That allows more transistors to be crammed into a ...
