To put things into perspective, I live in the literal desert in Arizona.

We currently have an official heat warning—it is cooler here than in France.

@thomasfuchs right but the AC contributes to heating the external air so.. not the best solution

(of course the best solution is to prevent or reduce climate change as much as possible..)

@elduvelle @thomasfuchs Especially with the denser population centers that a lot of Europe has. The heat island effect is already quite large here because of that, air conditioning will only exacerbate the issues, especially for those who cannot afford powered climate control. Instead we should demand climate adaptations of our neigbourhoods and cities, and planned climate adaptation renovations of houses that disadvantaged people live in.
