Environment & Ecology / general
English term or phrase: maximize light colors
This is basically about how to make buildings that can save as much energy as possible... the original text goes as below:
Maximize light colors for roofing and wall finish materials.
I am not sure what it means. (and therefore not sure how this measure can help buildings be energy-efficient.)
Thanks!
