Air Conditioning

[MJ]

Knock knock!!

Just a side note--air conditioning is also VERY un-environmentally friendly...turning the thermostat even one or two degrees up can save a huge amount of carbon dioxide from going into the atmosphere .

I still think it's a necessary evil for the reasons mentioned above, but concern for the planet is, imho, a VERY compelling reason to use it in moderation!

 

I can think of several sources for electricity that are carbon neutral. Hydro, Nuke-a leer, geothermal, solar, hamster wheels, etc

Air conditioning is not, in and of itself, a process with a high carbon footprint. It is the socket that it's plugged into. Is your local power utility driven by fossil fuels? Then that's a carbon printer, but no fire, no carbon.
