This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Better building and urbanism should be the preferred solution. And solar panels can and should be installed even without AC

I agree with you, we should be building with higher urban density. Even in the country, build apartment blocks in the middle of farmland that can be efficiently heated or cooled. And the inhabitants harvest their own food in the vicinity instead of relying on imports. The solution isn't for individuals to get solar to power their AC, it's still way too many resources and embedded energy. A little social engineering, mild gulagification and we could easily solve climate change.

But that is no way to attain or maintain power or wealth, so we won't be doing any of that shit. You better read some Machiavelli you fool! How dare you suggest things like that here? ๐Ÿคญ ๐Ÿซ  ๐Ÿฅต ๐Ÿ‘
