Appropriate technology in action. And as a bonus, textile insulation could use material from all those fast fashion clothes dumped in the desert or otherwise abandoned to dissolve into microplastics :/

I wish awnings were more common. Such a simple way to block out midday or afternoon sun in the hot summer.
