5. Musings on HVAC&R - Anabling Animals to Survive the Heat and Cold
Air conditioning is important not only for humans, but also for precision machinery such as computers in data centers, and animals, which tend to be forgotten, such as pets and animals in zoos.
Measures zoos take to combat heat and cold
There are various animals in zoos, including animals from hot and cold regions. Previously, zoos did not use air conditioning to create an environment suitable for the animals, and prioritized acclimatizing the animal to the climate of the area where the zoo is located. As of 2005, 80% of Japanese zoos had no temperature and humidity control. In recent years, zoo animals have become valuable due to the destruction of the natural environment, and the environment of zoos has been improved.
