The Amish figured this out 200 years ago. NASA confirmed the physics
in 1959. In 1991, it was quietly removed from every residential
construction manual in America. Not banned. Not disproven. Just erased.

This video shows you the exact material, the exact method, and the
exact reason nobody told you about it — until now

Hey I love Al Gore and his white painted roofing idea, but this idea that you can just say something is effective and works and that everyone should remodel their home to be incompatible with AC with no stats or anything because you trust the Amish's lack of temperature measuring technology is daft.

Unless that thumbnail with the holes for airflow is a clickbait thing, in which case I will downvote for clickbait.
