Comment on The more air conditions in an area the hotter becomes around it. In turn increasing the demand for AC. Talk about infinite money glitch.
Huh guess so. But still 2.4 degrees ain’t a whole lot (well except on a global scale lol).
Cities are already about 5C hotter than the surrounding countryside. Adding this increase on top, means 7.5C.
4OC in the countryside is already bad, 47,5C in the city is deadly for a lot of people.
I think you underestimate, how deadly heat can be: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_temperature
Wouldn’t those 2.5C already be included in cities being 5c warmer…?
No, since most cities are not fully air conditioned.
