Résumé

The city of Toronto recently unveiled a much more intricate way to use Lake Ontario to cool some of its citizens. Beginning on July 15, an elaborate set of pipes began dredging cold water from the bottom of the lake to cool downtown buildings. It will reduce overall annual power usage by more than 40 megawatts and greenhouse gas emissions by nearly 40 000 metric tons-the equivalent of taking 8000 cars off the road once it is fully operational.
