The underground fridge that keeps food cool – even in a heatwave
An underground fridge, inspired by historical ice houses, uses the earth's stable temperature to keep food cool with minimal electricity. Located in a community garden in London, it provides a sustainable cooling solution during heatwaves. The design, created by a Dutch inventor, is part of an eco-friendly urban gardening project aimed at reconnecting city dwellers with food and nature. This innovation supports local food production and reduces reliance on conventional refrigeration.
