How does geothermal air conditioning work to provide energy-efficient cooling for buildings?

Geothermal air conditioning uses the earth's stable underground temperature to cool buildings. A system of pipes filled with a heat-absorbing fluid is buried underground, where it absorbs heat from the building and transfers it to the cooler ground. This process is more energy-efficient than traditional air conditioning systems, as it relies on the earth's natural temperature rather than electricity to cool the building.
