I’m for cleaner energy and all but not at the expense of the economy and ways of life. We need affordable efficient alternatives put in place before we can change this drastically.

A debate has been sparked after Spain's government moved to prevent offices, shops and other venues from setting air conditioning below 27°C in the summer.

Putting aside the utter insanity of that BS, I could deal with 80 with fans in an arid climate. A very arid climate.

What’s crazy is that their neighbor, France, is one of the largest producers of nuclear energy on the planet.

Spain still produced some but it slowly moving away from all production .

Centralized systems always favor the administrators, never the citizens. Its the easy way to control citizenry. The citizens are easy to convince its "for their own good."

It's too late for that. Al Gore told us 30 years ago that we only had 20 years left to live before Global Warming would kill us all.

We've already been dead for a decade now.

I lived in Germany for two years without any AC and never really needed it that I can remember. Now heat was another story. Definitely used the heat.

Trump's digital marketing team is probably having a tough time working on these epic supercut campaign videos while having constant hard ons.

I can't wait until after the midterms. That orange bastard is going to keep me so damned entertained.

Anyone else find celsius temperatures the hardest metric measurement to relate to?

Depends on where you live too. When I lived in Leimen, a small suburb of Heidelberg, I was right on the Marktplatz. During the summer it got freaking hot as hell. Thankfully I had a portable unit that I ran in my bedroom that made it tolerable at night.

Now when I live out in the countryside in Schweinfurt, I didn't really need A/C, especially because my apartment was built into a hill.
