You don't need thermal capacity to transfer heat into space.
Pump all the heat into one big black body radiator until it glows red hot, then divert the emanating radiation out into space.

The atmosphere being in the way would seem to be a problem... I'm not a physicist though. I'd love to see some back of the envelope calculations exploring whether this is theoretically feasible.
