I just love how humans will do anything other than actually focus on fixing the problem. Love it.
I would argue that the new paint could help alleviate the issue, since it would incentivise people to decrease use of the AC. My concern then would be how polluting is the production of the new paint compared to the current version.
My immediate thought was to wonder if this would help give kids who get left in a car by mistake have more of a fighting chance
Ah yes. Why reduce the temperature of your car by 12 degrees when you can just alter the entire planet instead.
Lol
Like reducing the number of cars.
Ohh too much traffic! 🤔 Let's expand the freeways until you need a freeway to cross other freeways.

So... You want to turn off the sun? This has nothing to do with climate change, the sun hasn't changed intensity in a few 100 years, so sun makes things warm
Lol
Uhh, what? The problem of things getting hot in the sun?
Blow up the sun. Easy.
I like blowing things up.
Heat is the real issue. So much wasted energy
Lol
You're right, running AC more off of internal combustion engines is a better path to the solution.
Lol
