Our summers get up to 115 degrees on a regular basis, and the best thing I've done for our cooling costs was to plant tall shade bushes along the sunny side of the house. You get the shade to prevent super-heating the wall, and the slight evaporative cooling from additional vegetation.

Hard to find a more eco-friendly solution than more plants, too! ;)
