3 Sunlight triggers photosynthesis that generates energy Passive cooling through water evaporation from each leaf cools the environment Trees help to moderate wind conditions INSPIRED BY NATURE In the natural environment, Nature has its own way of keeping cool. While sunlight promotes photosynthesis, evaporation through the leaves of trees has a passive cooling effect that keeps the environment cool. The leaves also help to moderate wind conditions and provide shade. This is a strategy that works in nature and has also inspired the design of The Crest. Tress provide shade
