Re: Can You use the Freezer (in emergency) to cool hot apartment?
The reason I brought this up is because we're having a heat wave around here. 95 and up today. The most vulnerable are the elderly people. Occasionally the city will offer free box fans to needy people when it lingers a little too long. Despite that, you always hear of heat stroke or heart attack victoms (usually the elderly) at this time.
Since *everyone* has a refridgerator... I just wondered if there could be a way to change the refridgerator into a cooling system for the room. You've heard of people doing that with the stove to keep warm.
Maybe if they had plastic tarp enclosing the kitchen to make the area smaller.
I mean when you're talking about a life or death situation - could it be done?
A cold shower would only work for a limited time.
