At the arrivals terminal(到达航站楼) at Roland Garros airport on Réunion island(留尼汪岛,法属印度洋领地), visitors are greeted by floor-to-ceiling windows(落地窗) framing the lush(茂盛的) green mountains of the French Indian Ocean territory.
在留尼汪岛罗兰·加洛斯机场的到达航站楼,迎接旅客的是落地窗,窗外框出这片法属印度洋领地郁郁葱葱的绿色群山。
What they may have also expected was the icy chill of air conditioning; this island just off Madagascar sits in the tropical zone to the south of the equator.(他们或许还期待感受到空调的冰冷凉意;这座紧邻马达加斯加的岛屿位于赤道以南的热带地区。) But instead, the terminal is cooled by a light tropical breeze, the result of natural ventilation(自然通风) built into its unique design.

The genesis(起源,开端) of the project was in 2016, as part of a wider effort by airport management to reduce its carbon dioxide emissions(二氧化碳排放). Marc Delanoë, who was then leading the airport’s environmental and energy team, was determined from the beginning that the new arrivals terminal, which was being built completely from scratch, would not use air conditioning.(当时领导机场环境与能源团队的马克·德拉诺埃从一开始就下定决心:这座完全从零开始建造的新到达航站楼绝不使用空调。)
