@bike4climate@mastodon.nu yes, we need to build faster more sources of clean energy. My point is that we won't do that fast enough, instead, we all will install air conditioning to have a bearable life during heat waves. @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu

@leavex@mastodon.social @bike4climate@mastodon.nu @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu my AC is annually saving 500 m3 of gas for heating. For cooling only used when excess electricity is available. If that wasn't enough: 2 moderate PV panels added yo account for the total electricity consumption of it. So AC consumption goes up much slower than PV build up, whilst reducing need of fossil gas.

@leavex@mastodon.social @bike4climate@mastodon.nu @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu Heat is the least of our problems. Having a constant supply of water for consumption and food production is key. If #climatecollapse spare us of a clean water supply, we’re doomed. The EU Commission knows about the problem. I don’t know how seriously countries are taking it and implementing measures. 😒
