“Much of the existing cooling equipment uses hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants, which are potent greenhouse gases, and use a lot of energy, making them a double burden for climate change. Even with the phasedown of hydrofluorocarbons required by the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, business as usual means emissions from refrigeration and air conditioning are expected to double by 2030 and triple by 2050, rising from 7 per cent of global GHG emissions today. Right now, the more we cool, the more we heat the planet. If we are serious about reversing current trends, we cannot go about cooling our planet with a business-as-usual approach.”
Lol have fun cooking with global warming bro
He says, while being the cause of global warming with 24/7 AC.
Lol what a tool. If I have 100% renewable energy at my house how’s that contributing?
Energy is only a part of the equation.

Maybe isolate your house and turn off the AC and delay global warming for a bit then
opens 2 windows each on seperate sides of the house/apartment
Doesn’t work as well when it’s 115° outside like much of the US
It would be quite scary to see our lakes boiling
115° in moron units, not Celsius.
