I notice a distinct lack of Americans explaining that Europeans need to install more AC.

The 30,000 preventable yearly deaths already remind us of that.

Reality is much of Northern Europe hasn’t needed air conditioning until about 5 years ago

Throughput the summer my phone regular tells me the temperature is 15°C above the average for the time of year

The 2003 European heatwave had a death toll of 70,000. That should have been a warning for us to get AC.

And for the next 20 years been basically unneeded.

How much AC does Alaska have?

Yearly - since when?

What's your next beef after that? Should we put cows and sheep under AC? Forests and fields under AC? Iceland should start installing AC? The Magreb countries should live under the surface of the Earth like mole people? Why don't people relocate to the Antarctic, those idiots?

Come on, where they will find a way to express their American exceptionalism these days? Let them have that one.
