Explanation:

Engineers from Purdue University in the US have created what they are calling the whitest paint yet. Buildings coated with this paint may be able to cool them off enough to reduce the need for air conditioning. The team of researchers at the university created an ultra-white paint in October pushing the limits of how white paint can be.
