A World Of Energy Saving: Paint-Inspired Butterflies
In a breakthrough study, researchers have developed a revolutionary new paint which could help reduce global energy consumption. Inspired by the wings of butterflies, this paint is capable of reflecting more sunlight than any other paint ever produced. In tests, it was found to reflect up to 95% of sunlight, significantly more than the current best paint, which reflects only 78%. This paint could be used to coat roofs and walls of buildings, reducing the amount of energy required to cool them down in the summer. The researchers hope that this paint could help save energy and money around the world.
